Questions

Roofing questions in Wildwood

Is my roof likely due for replacement if my house was built in the 1970s?

It may be. The median home in this ZIP code was built in 1973, and 57.3% of homes here were built before 1980. A roof on a house that age has often been replaced at least once, but the current one could still be wearing out. Call for an inspection and a written estimate that shows what your roof needs.

Should I worry about hail when tropical storms are the bigger risk here?

Hail risk is Low in this area, with 9 reports within 15 km since 2000, but the largest hail in the county record since 2015 reached 1.75 inches. Tropical systems matter more: Remnants of Hurricane Ida led to a declaration on September 5, 2021. After any major storm, call for a roof inspection.

Do ice dams form on roofs in Wildwood?

They do. NCEI normals show 72 freezing days and 15 inches of snow a year here. A roof over a warm, leaky attic will build an ice dam in that weather. Sealing the attic is the fix.

Why do roofs here leak?

Most leaks here start at flashing, pipe boots and valleys. The nearest weather station records about 44 inches of rain a year. A leak repair begins by tracing the entry point.
