Southwest Missouri swings hard between seasons — summer heat and hail, then winter wind and ice. Before the weather turns, it's worth a quick look at your roof and siding. Small problems are easy to miss from the ground, and they're a lot cheaper to fix now than after a winter storm finds them.
What to check on your roof
- Shingles that are missing, lifted, or curling at the edges
- Granules collecting in your gutters — a sign shingles are wearing down
- Soft spots or sagging anywhere on the roof deck
- Flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights pulling away or rusting
What to check on your siding
- Cracked, warped, or loose panels
- Gaps opening up at corners and trim
- Hail bruising or fading that's hard to spot unless you're looking for it
Why now Hail and summer storms do the damage, but it's winter wind and ice that usually turn a small gap into a real leak. Catching it in the fall means a planned repair instead of an emergency one in the middle of a storm.
