When it comes to severe weather, wind can be a major culprit of property damage. Wind damage occurs when the force of the wind causes destruction or impairment to a structure. There are several different types of wind forces, including direct pressure, suction, and uplift, which can damage various parts of a building, such as the roof, walls, and gutters. Common types of wind damage include missing or damaged shingles, torn or cracked roofing materials, broken or bent gutters, and damage to exterior siding or trim. Homeowners should be aware of these different types of wind damage and their severity to properly assess potential damage to their property. It's recommended to have a qualified HAAG certified roofing professional inspect and document any wind damage, providing an estimate for repairs or replacement as needed.

At Forest City Exteriors, we only use our certified HAAG inspectors for all insurance claim damage assessments. Our process is different from our standard retail estimating process and this sets us apart from other roofing contractors who may not have HAAG certified inspectors on their teams. Our inspectors are also true roof mechanics that have actually installed full roof systems in their past providing you with a level of expertise that is very hard to find in the industry today. 

In addition to being HAAG certified inspectors, we also provide every homeowner with a digital scope sheet report that details the exact locations of damages and potential leak points on the roof. This report is airdropped onsite after completion of the inspection, allowing homeowners to see exactly what our inspectors have found. We use sidewalk chalk to mark our findings on the roof for the photo report and document all details on the digital scope sheet.

At Forest City Exteriors, we believe in transparency and accountability. On most of our inspections we try to use body cameras to record our inspections before the ladder is even set up, taking transparency to a whole new level and providing insurance companies with evidence of our findings. Our recorded videos are also used for quality, training, and educational purposes. 

If you suspect that your roof or exterior has been damaged by wind, don't hesitate to contact Forest City Exteriors. Our team of professionals will provide you with a thorough and accurate assessment, helping you get the compensation you deserve from your insurance company. Trust us for a true professional level of service like no other.

Trees can cause significant damage to homes and other structures during high wind events. Wind gusts can break tree limbs or uproot entire trees, causing them to fall onto roofs, walls, and other parts of a building.

Common signs of tree damage to a structure include cracked or missing roof shingles, broken gutters, and dented or punctured siding. It's important to have any tree-related damage assessed as soon as possible by a qualified professional to prevent further damage and ensure the safety of your home.
