Clark Siding & Roofing - Spokane's Local Roof Repair

After high winds, check for missing, cracked, or lifted shingles, especially on roof edges and ridges. Look for granules in your gutters, which indicate wear. Inspect around chimneys, vents, and skylights for broken seals or gaps. Inside your attic, look for daylight coming through the roof boards or signs of moisture. If you see any of these issues, it's wise to have a professional inspection from a local contractor like us to prevent minor damage from turning into a major leak.

Signs include musty odors in the attic, visible mold or mildew on rafters or insulation, damp or compressed insulation, and rust on nails or metal fixtures. In Spokane, our cold winters and temperature fluctuations create perfect conditions for condensation and ice damming if attic ventilation is inadequate. Trapped moisture drastically reduces insulation's effectiveness, increases heating costs, and can lead to wood rot and structural damage. A proper inspection can identify ventilation issues and wet insulation that needs replacement.

First, document any visible damage safely from the ground with photos or video. Then, check your attic for active leaks or water stains. Contact your homeowner's insurance company to understand your policy's storm damage coverage. Next, call a reputable local roofer for a thorough, no-obligation inspection. We can provide a detailed report and work directly with your insurance adjuster to ensure all damage is properly assessed and covered, streamlining the repair process to get your Spokane home protected again quickly.
