Yes, finding shingle granules in your gutters is a common sign of wear, often accelerated by our local hail storms and temperature swings. Those granules protect your shingles from UV rays. Significant loss can shorten your roof's lifespan and lead to leaks. We recommend a professional roof inspection to assess the extent of the granule loss and determine if repair or replacement is needed to prevent further damage.

Hail dents in metal roof flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys are often subtle but critical. Look for small dimples or a 'hammered' texture. This damage compromises the seal, allowing water to seep underneath shingles and into your home's structure, leading to rot and mold. As Thornton experts, Crew Max performs detailed inspections after storms to identify and repair or replace damaged flashing, which is a key defense against Colorado's unpredictable weather.

In Thornton, overflowing gutters are often due to clogs from pine needles and debris, but can also be caused by improper slope or damage from ice dams and hail. We start with a thorough gutter cleaning and inspection. If we find issues like separation, sagging, or corrosion—especially common after our freeze-thaw cycles—we may recommend repair or a new, properly sized gutter installation. Properly functioning gutters are essential to direct water away from your foundation and protect your roof's edge from water damage.
