Storm Damage Inspection

If you spot curled shingles, lifted flashing, or granules in your gutters after a storm, schedule a professional roof inspection within 30 days. At Peachtree Roofing & Exteriors, we know how unpredictable Atlanta weather can be—especially after those late-summer thunderstorms roll through. With fall just beginning, now is the time to catch storm damage before winter winds or tropical storm remnants bring more trouble.

In Atlanta, GA, roofs take a beating from heavy rain, hail, and wind gusts that can quietly loosen shingles, dislodge flashing, or clog gutters with granules. While some issues are easy to miss from the ground, early detection is key to preventing leaks, insulation damage, and costly repairs down the road.

5 Signs You Should Schedule a Roof Inspection in Atlanta

Not all storm damage is obvious. But if you take a few minutes to scan your roof from the ground—or safely from a ladder—you might notice these red flags:

  1. Missing or curled shingles

  2. Loose or lifted flashing around vents and chimneys

  3. Dark streaks or patches (may indicate granule loss or water absorption)

  4. Granules piling up in gutters or downspouts

  5. Leaks or discoloration on ceilings or attic walls

Atlanta’s late-summer weather patterns, especially in areas like Decatur, Roswell, and Marietta, can bring sudden hail bursts or high winds that damage roofs in ways you won't notice until it's too late.

Quick Self-Check: What Homeowners Can Safely Look For

Before calling in the pros, do a simple self-check. Walk around your home and:

  • Look for shingles on the ground or visible gaps on the roof.

  • Check your gutters for shingle granules (they look like coarse sand).

  • Look up at vent pipes and flashing for signs of lifting or separation.

  • Peek into your attic for any damp insulation or discoloration.

If you notice any of these, it’s best to call a professional roofer for a full assessment. That’s where we come in.
