Commercial Roof Damage Inspections Underway in New Port Richey, Florida, For Tornado And Hail Damage After Storm On May 31, 2022

A tornado caused damage in New Port Richey, Florida on May 31, 2022, but thankfully no one was hurt. There was damage to homes, vehicles, downed trees, and debris tossed throughout the area. Residents watched the funnel clouds appear before their eyes. According to WFLA.com, one resident said she watched the funnel cloud form, but then shortly after she ran inside and hid in the bathroom. “It just started taking things from the ground and turning it around, turn it, spinning it, winds started forming and debris started flying, everything started flying,” she said.

Wind and debris being thrown against roofs and tornadic-wind-driven hail can cause great damage to roof tiles and shingles. It is imperative to have a roof inspection after an incident like this, to avoid water seepage under tiles and shingles due to cracked, chipped, or sheared-off tiles or shingles. Early in April, La Belle, Florida had a hail storm, dropping golf-ball-sized stones, RestoreMasters aided in the aftermath of that with roof inspections and insurance claim reporting.

The local hail and tornado map indicates the path of the tornado (black), in the southeast area of the hail storm, which dropped up to 1” hail (yellow).

Some roofing systems can be severely harmed by damage from heavy winds, tornadoes, or hail.

Older roofs are susceptible to severe wind damage, by winds as low as 50 mph.

The intensity of roof damage is determined by various factors: the velocity and impact of flying debris, the quality of the original installation, the building height and location in relation to other buildings, the angle and shape of the roof, and the material used on the roof.

After a severe storm of hail or high winds, it is important to get your roof inspected, and have a property damage assessment report so that you can learn whether you have damage to your roofing system.

Circumstances do not always allow for immediate repair of roof leaks. In the meantime, an experienced disaster roofing contractor can cover the roof or affected area with a tarp or with a durable plastic shrink wrap material, until such a time when more permanent repairs can be made. We need to stop more moisture damage, so we can prevent mold growth.

Get your roof inspected, even if you think there is no problem, especially if your property falls anywhere within the area of the hail and wind damage map.

Some storm damage problems do not produce symptoms right away.

And insurance companies can require you to get a claim in before their deadline.
