Free roof inspection in Riverdale, GA
A lot of Riverdale's housing stock dates back several decades, and roofs that old don't have much cushion left when hail comes through. Being close to the airport side of Clayton, the area sees the same fast moving storm systems that sweep the south metro. On an aging roof, wind can lift and crease shingles in ways that only get worse with the next heavy rain.
What storm damage looks like on Riverdale roofs
A lot of these roofs have already outlived their rated lifespan, so the shingles are thin and the underlying felt has gone dry and papery. When wind creases a shingle on a roof that old, the crease line cracks all the way through rather than flexing back, and the piece breaks off in the next hard rain. We frequently find the previous repair jobs were spot patches that never matched the seal pattern, which leaves gaps at the transitions. Attic ventilation is often blocked or undersized on the older builds, and the trapped heat cooks the shingles from underneath faster than the sun does from above.
