Find Hidden Damage After Severe Weather

After a storm moves through Merritt Island, your roof may look fine from the ground, but wind and rain can cause damage that is not immediately visible. Lifted shingles, cracked flashing, and small punctures from debris often go unnoticed until water starts leaking into your home or business weeks later. By that time, moisture has already worked its way under the roofing materials and into the decking, insulation, or ceiling, turning a small repair into a much larger and more expensive problem.

Patriot Roofing and Construction LLC provides post-storm roof inspections throughout Merritt Island and surrounding areas to identify damage that might not be obvious right after a weather event. The inspection covers the entire roof surface, checking for lifted or missing materials, impact damage from flying debris, compromised flashing around vents and chimneys, and any signs that water has penetrated the roof membrane. You receive a detailed report that documents what was found and whether repairs are needed immediately or can be monitored over time. Storm inspections are commonly requested after hurricanes, tropical storms, and severe thunderstorms that bring high winds or hail.

If your property in Merritt Island was in the path of recent severe weather, contact Patriot Roofing and Construction LLC to schedule a storm inspection as soon as conditions are safe.

A storm inspection in Merritt Island involves a careful walk across your roof to check for wind damage, debris impact, and water intrusion that might not be visible from the ground. The inspection looks for lifted or torn shingles, damaged underlayment, cracked or bent flashing, and soft spots in the roof deck that indicate water has already started to penetrate. Gutters and downspouts are also checked to make sure they are still attached and functioning properly after high winds.

After the inspection is complete, you will know whether your roof survived the storm without damage, needs minor repairs, or has more serious issues that require immediate attention. The report includes photos of damaged areas and a written summary that explains what was found and what should be done next. If damage is present, the documentation can be used to support an insurance claim or to schedule repairs before the next storm arrives.

Storm inspections are performed on residential homes, commercial buildings, and multi-family properties throughout the service area. The inspection is most effective when scheduled within a few days of the storm, before additional weather has a chance to worsen any damage that occurred. If you wait too long, it becomes harder to prove that the damage was caused by a specific storm, which can complicate insurance claims and delay repairs.

People who schedule storm inspections usually want to know what the inspection will reveal, how soon it should be done, and whether their roof really needs to be checked if it looks okay from the street. These are some of the most common questions that come up after severe weather passes through Merritt Island.

Do not wait until you see water inside your home or business to find out your roof was damaged.
