Question Answers
After a storm in White Plains, what's the first thing I should check for with wind damage?
First, safely check your property for visible debris, missing or lifted shingles, and damaged flashing around chimneys or vents. Inside, look for water stains on ceilings or walls. Even minor wind damage in White Plains can lead to bigger issues, so we recommend a professional inspection. Wrights Roofing provides free, thorough post-storm assessments to identify hidden problems like compromised nail seals or weakened underlayment before they cause interior damage.
What causes nail pops on my roof, and are they a serious problem in our climate?
Nail pops are common in White Plains due to our seasonal temperature swings. The wood framing in your attic expands and contracts, which can push roofing nails up over time, breaking the seal around the shingle. This is a serious issue as it creates a direct path for water leaks. Don't just hammer them down—this can crack the shingle. Wrights Roofing properly addresses nail pops by removing the old nail, sealing the hole, and securing the shingle with a new nail in the correct location, followed by a fresh sealant application.
Can you repair storm-damaged masonry, like my chimney or brickwork?
Absolutely. High winds and driving rain can crack mortar joints (pointing) or dislodge bricks on chimneys and masonry walls. Compromised masonry allows water into your home's structure. Wrights Masonry specializes in repointing—carefully removing damaged mortar and replacing it with a durable, weather-resistant mix—and brick replacement. We ensure the repair matches your existing masonry and is sealed to prevent future water intrusion, which is crucial for protecting your home after White Plains storms.
