FAQs

New Orleans is notorious for getting damaging hurricanes that wreck havoc on roofs. To protect your roof from hurricane damage, consider regular roof inspections and maintenance, proper installation of hurricane straps or clips to secure the roof to the walls of the house, sealing any cracks or leaks, and checking for loose or damaged shingles. Installing a wind-resistant roof cover and reinforcing your garage door can also help protect your home from high winds. For maximum protection you should consider installing a fortified roof from a professional roofer such as Storm Guard. Contact us today and let us help determine the best hurricane protection options for your specific situation.

Regular maintenance and preventative measures can greatly extend the lifespan of your roof. These include regular roof inspections, clearing debris and leaves, cleaning gutters, trimming overhanging tree branches, repairing minor damages immediately, ensuring proper attic ventilation, and applying a proper roof sealant (if recommended by a professional).

Especially with the treacherous weather in the New Orleans area, regular roof inspections are crucial for maintaining the integrity of your roof and prolonging its lifespan. Inspections can help identify minor issues before they become major, costly repairs, such as leaks, damaged shingles, or issues with flashing. They can also ensure your roof is protecting your home from water damage, mold growth, and insulation issues. Additionally, roof inspections are often required by home insurance providers or when buying or selling a property. Contact us today for a Free Roof Inspection!
