Wind Damage Roof Inspection in New Brunswick, NJ
Creased, lifted and missing shingles documented with the wind-speed context claims need.
Wind damage has a signature: creased shingles bent at the seal line, tabs lifted and resealed with debris underneath, missing ridge caps. We document the pattern across every slope, check seal-strip integrity, and correlate with recorded wind speeds for your area on the storm date — the context that turns 'some lifted shingles' into an approved claim or a proper repair scope.

Wind Damage Roof Inspection in New Brunswick, NJ: Local Considerations
New Brunswick averages about 29 inches of snow per winter with February nor'easters, ice dams from freeze-thaw cycles, and humid summers. Snow load, ice damming and wind-driven rain are the big three roof killers here.
Historic colonials and Victorians near Rutgers, brick rowhouses downtown, and post-war Capes in the outer wards — a mix where ice dams exploit every weak valley, eave and flashing detail. That local context shapes every wind damage roof inspection we perform — from material choice to the details we double-check.
Frequently Asked Questions
Wind creates directional patterns — creasing at consistent heights, debris under lifted tabs, damage concentrated on windward slopes. Age wears evenly.
Sometimes in heat, but creased shingles never regain full strength. Documented creasing is legitimate damage even if the tab laid back down.
Sustained winds above 60 mph routinely damage shingles; gusts and microbursts do it at lower sustained speeds. We pull the recorded data for your storm.
