Signs of Roof Damage in North Vancouver Homes

• Missing, cracked, curled or lifted shingles
• Split, cupped or missing cedar shakes
• Bare patches or shingle granules collecting at downspouts
• Bent or pulled-back flashing around chimneys, skylights and vents
• Heavy moss or debris build-up
• A sagging or uneven roofline

• Water stains or bubbling paint on ceilings and upper walls
• Damp or compressed insulation in the attic
• Daylight visible through the roof boards
• A musty smell in the attic or top floor
• Mould or mildew near the ceiling

North Shore windstorms are the most common cause of sudden roof damage. After a big storm, walk around the house and look for shingles on the ground, lifted edges and damaged flashing. Don't climb onto a wet roof. If you see damage, take photos for insurance and call a roofer.
