Roof Repair After Winter: Signs of Damage to Address This Spring

JTR Roofing Discusses the Importance of a Roof Inspection After Winter

INVER GROVE HEIGHTS, Minn. - March 26, 2025 - PRLog -- Harsh winter conditions can take a significant toll on a roof, causing damage that may go unnoticed until it leads to costly repairs. As spring arrives, homeowners should inspect their roofs for signs of wear and address any necessary repairs before minor issues escalate.

Common Post-Winter Roofing Issues
  • Missing or Damaged Shingles – Ice and winter storms can cause shingles to crack, curl or detach, leaving the roof vulnerable to leaks and further deterioration. Replacing damaged shingles promptly helps restore protection.
  • Leaks or Water Stains – Discoloration on ceilings or walls indicates moisture penetration. Snow and ice can create small openings that allow water to seep inside, potentially leading to mold and structural damage.
  • Gutter Damage and Blockages – Heavy snow and ice dams can cause gutters to sag, crack or become clogged. Ensuring gutters are clear and functioning properly prevents water buildup near the foundation.
  • Sagging Roof Sections – The weight of accumulated snow and ice can cause structural damage, leading to dips or uneven areas. A professional inspection can identify potential risks before they become severe.
  • Granule Loss in Gutters – Excessive asphalt shingle granules in gutters indicate significant wear. Granules protect shingles from UV rays and moisture, and their loss accelerates deterioration.
  • Flashing Damage – Flashing around chimneys, vents and skylights can loosen or crack due to ice expansion and contraction, leading to potential leaks. Timely repairs help maintain a watertight seal.
