What wind speeds typically cause roof damage in Albany?
Wind damage can begin at sustained speeds of 45-50 mph, but significant damage typically occurs with winds exceeding 60 mph. The Albany area commonly experiences wind gusts of 70+ mph during severe thunderstorms, which can lift shingles and damage flashing systems even on well-maintained roofs.How can I tell if my roof has wind damage?

We recommend professional inspection after any significant wind event, as hidden damage can lead to leaks and structural problems if not addressed promptly.How quickly should wind damage be repaired?
Wind damage should be assessed immediately and protected within 24-48 hours to prevent water infiltration. Even minor wind damage can allow moisture penetration that leads to mold, insulation damage, and structural issues.
