Damage Type

Wind Damage

Roof damage caused by high winds — typically lifted, missing, or torn shingles and damaged flashing.

What Is Wind Damage?

Wind damage to a roof commonly presents as lifted, curled, or missing shingles, torn ridge caps, damaged flashing, and debris impact. Wind-damaged areas allow water infiltration and should be repaired promptly. Like hail damage, wind damage may be covered by homeowners insurance subject to the deductible.
