Granule loss is a sign your asphalt shingles are aging and their protective coating is wearing away. This is common in our area due to sun exposure, storms, and freeze-thaw cycles. Without those granules, your roof is more vulnerable to UV damage and water infiltration. It's a key issue we inspect for, and we can advise if a repair or full replacement is needed to prevent leaks and protect your home's structure.

Visible signs inside your home, like water stains on ceilings or walls, are a major indicator. From the outside, curling or buckling shingles can signal compromised underlayment underneath. This critical water-resistant barrier can be damaged by prolonged moisture or improper installation. We perform detailed inspections to assess the underlayment's condition, as repairing or replacing it is essential to stop leaks at their source and ensure a watertight roof.

We recommend a professional inspection annually, ideally in spring or fall, and always after a severe storm. If you notice missing granules in your gutters, see cracked or curling shingles, or have any concerns about leaks or recent storm damage, don't wait. Early detection of issues like granule loss or underlayment problems allows for simpler, more affordable repairs and helps you avoid costly interior water damage down the line.
