TYPES OF ROOF DAMAGE Roofing most often reaches the point of catastrophic failure when one or more of these conditions occur: Aging roof When roofs are left in place beyond their useful lives, leaks occur within the property, and their number and severity will increase over time. Saturated roofing As a result of an aging roof, accumulated water isn’t dispensed properly and is trapped in the roof and leads to saturated and ruined materials. High wind damage During high winds and severe weather, your roof is susceptible to partial or entire removal. Ice dams When a layer of ice or snow builds up on your roof in sub-freezing temperatures, ice dams become a concern. The radiant heat from your property melts some of the snow and ice, allowing the resulting liquid water to run down your roof to the gutters in a normal fashion. However, once the water reaches the gutters away from the heat of the home, it can refreeze, build up and block additional melt water.
