Questions
By Census estimates for 2019 to 2023, 80% of the housing was built before 1980 and the median build year is 1952. Newer buildings pull some ZIP codes lower: one ZIP has 34.1% built before 1980. Check how old your own roof is, and call to book an inspection if it dates from the original build.
NOAA's Storm Prediction Center logged 57 hail reports within 15 km since 2000, a High band, with August the busiest month. Two-inch hail was last reported within 25 km on August 1, 2011. Hail damage is often hard to see from the ground, so call for a roof inspection after any hailstorm.
Most leaks here start at flashing, pipe boots and valleys. The nearest weather station records about 50 inches of rain a year. A leak repair begins by tracing the entry point.
