Can wind damage shingles even if there was no hail?
Yes. High winds can lift, crease, loosen, or remove shingles. Wind can also expose nails, open seams, and create areas where water can enter later.
Can hail damage show up later?
Some issues become more visible over time as granules loosen, bruised areas age, or water begins entering weakened spots. That is why post-storm review is useful.
Why do some roofers miss storm damage evidence?
Some roofers focus almost entirely on shingles. RAFTRx looks at the roof and the surrounding property because the evidence is often beyond the roof.
