Missing Shingles
Visible gaps where shingles are missing expose your roof to water damage, pests, and further deterioration. Fast repair prevents expensive problems.
Why Shingles Go Missing
Wind Damage
High winds can lift and tear shingles, especially at edges and ridges.
Age Deterioration
Old shingles become brittle, crack, and fall off over time.
Poor Installation
Improperly nailed shingles are prone to blowing off.
Storm Impact
Hail and flying debris can break and dislodge shingles.
Animal Damage
Birds, squirrels, and raccoons can damage and remove shingles.
Risks of Ignoring Missing Shingles
Frequently Asked Questions
How many missing shingles require repair?
Even one missing shingle exposes your roof to water damage. Any visible gap in your roofing should be addressed promptly. Multiple missing shingles may indicate underlying issues requiring a full inspection.
Can you match my existing shingles?
We stock common shingle types and can source discontinued styles. While new shingles may appear slightly different initially, they typically blend with weathering. For older roofs, we discuss whether full replacement makes more sense.
How long does shingle replacement take?
Minor repairs with a few shingles can be completed in under an hour. Larger areas may take half a day. We complete most shingle repairs in a single visit.
