High winds. Sudden hail. Heavy snow followed by fast thaws. If you live in Wyoming, and Your Roof Ready for storm season? — especially when it comes to your roof.
At Pete’s Builders, we help homeowners across Cheyenne, Ranchettes, Laramie, and surrounding areas prepare their roofs before storms strike. If you’re not sure whether your roof is ready, these 7 warning signs are your cue to act before small issues become expensive emergencies.
Your Roof Ready for Storm Season?
1. Missing or Damaged Shingles
Harsh Wyoming winds and shifting weather can rip off or crack shingles without warning. Missing or curling shingles leave your home exposed to rain, hail, and water damage.
✅ What to do: Schedule fast shingle repairs before the next storm rolls in.
2. Water Stains Inside Your Home
Brown or yellow spots on your ceilings or walls? That’s a red flag for an active or recent roof leak — and it’ll only get worse with the next round of storms.
🚨 Don’t wait: Get a roof inspection before the leak causes mold or drywall damage.
3. Granules in Your Gutters
If you’re cleaning out your gutters and noticing dark, sand-like particles, your asphalt shingles may be deteriorating. This reduces your roof’s ability to resist wind, hail, and UV damage.
🛠️ Tip: Excess granule loss is common before leaks begin — don’t ignore it.
4. Sagging or Uneven Roof Lines
Wyoming’s freeze-thaw cycles and windstorms can weaken roof decking over time. If you see dips or waves in your roofline, it may signal hidden structural issues or water damage.
🔎 Get it checked: A sagging roof may not hold up during a severe storm.
5. Cracked Flashing or Exposed Nail Heads
Flashing protects the most vulnerable areas of your roof — like chimneys, valleys, and vents. If flashing is rusted, cracked, or lifting, water can seep in during heavy rain or snowmelt.
Solution: Pete’s Builders offers quick flashing repairs and resealing to secure your roof before storm season.
6. Roof Over 15–20 Years Old
If your roof is more than 15 years old, it may not be ready to withstand another Wyoming storm cycle — especially without recent maintenance.
📅 Time for an inspection: Older roofs are more prone to wind uplift, leaks, and insurance denial if not maintained.
7. Last Year’s Storm Damage Never Got Checked
Wyoming homeowners often ride out hailstorms or wind events without checking for damage. But roof problems don’t always show up right away — and insurance windows can close fast.
Pete’s Builders offers free storm damage inspections so you’re not caught off guard.
