Preparing Your Roof for Storm Season in Louisiana & Texas

Storm season doesn't play around here. A little preparation now can save you a major repair bill later. Here's how to get your roof ready.

1. Get a pre-season inspection

The best time to find a small problem is before a storm turns it into a big one. A professional inspection before storm season catches loose shingles, worn flashing, and weak spots while they're still cheap to fix.

2. Clean your gutters and downspouts

Clogged gutters send water backing up under your shingles and pooling around your foundation. Clear them before the heavy rains start.

3. Trim overhanging branches

High winds turn tree limbs into battering rams. Trimming branches that hang over your roof removes a major source of storm damage.

4. Secure loose items around your property

Patio furniture, trampolines, and loose debris become projectiles in high wind. Securing them protects your roof and your neighbors'.

5. Know who you'll call

When a storm hits and everyone's scrambling for a roofer at once, you don't want to be starting your search from zero. Save the number of a trusted local contractor now.

Prevention is always cheaper than repair. A pre-season inspection is free with us — and it's the single smartest thing you can do before the weather turns.
