June is a month of transition across North and South Carolina. Spring storms are tapering off, hurricane season is officially underway, and summer heat is starting to build. For homeowners in towns like Statesville, Conway, Shallotte, and Morganton, this is more than just a seasonal shift—it's the perfect time to schedule a professional roof inspection.
With the weather warming and storm threats looming on the horizon, June offers a critical window to assess and prepare your roof before summer heat and hurricane-force winds test its durability. A timely inspection now can prevent costly repairs later, increase your roof’s lifespan, and offer peace of mind heading into storm season.
Spring in the Carolinas often brings high winds, hail, and heavy rain—especially in regions like Conway and Shallotte, which are more coastal. These spring storms can quietly damage your roof without obvious warning signs from the ground.
Even small issues like lifted shingles or minor leaks can escalate quickly if not caught early. Water intrusion, wood rot, and mold growth can compromise your roof’s structural integrity, especially when combined with rising summer temperatures and humidity.
A June inspection helps identify and address these spring-related problems before they worsen.
June also marks the start of hurricane season, which runs through November. While full-force hurricanes may not hit until later in the summer, June is when many homeowners begin preparing—and your roof should be at the top of that list.
In coastal towns like Shallotte and Conway, hurricane preparedness is a regular part of life. But inland cities like Statesville and Morganton aren't immune to the effects of tropical systems. Heavy rain, downed branches, and strong wind gusts can damage or completely dislodge an already weakened roof.
A pre-hurricane roof inspection allows you to:
Roof inspections are best performed when the weather is dry and moderate. June typically delivers clear skies and warmer days, making it easier for roofing professionals to perform a thorough, safe evaluation.
Inspections during this time also ensure repairs can be scheduled before contractors get busy responding to late-summer emergencies caused by hurricanes and summer storms.
During a professional inspection, roofing experts will assess the entire roofing system, from the surface materials to the supporting structure. Here's what a typical inspection covers:
✅ Shingle Condition
Inspectors check for cracked, curled, missing, or lifted shingles that may allow water intrusion or indicate hail damage.
✅ Flashing Integrity
Metal flashing around vents, chimneys, and skylights is checked for rust, lifting, or sealant failure.
✅ Gutters and Drainage
Clogged or damaged gutters can lead to water pooling on the roof. Inspectors ensure proper flow and look for signs of wear.
✅ Signs of Leaks or Water Damage
Interior ceilings, attic spaces, and roof decking are checked for staining, mold, or soft spots.
✅ Ventilation Health
Proper ventilation prevents heat buildup and extends the life of your shingles. Vents are inspected for blockages and condition.
✅ Roof Deck Stability
Inspectors look for sagging or uneven areas that may suggest structural damage or moisture-compromised wood.
✅ Moss, Algae, or Debris Accumulation
Organic growth and debris hold moisture against the roof and can damage shingles. Inspectors will note areas needing cleaning.
✅ Sealant and Caulking
Areas around flashing, vents, and transitions are checked for dried-out or cracked sealants that need reapplication.
✅ Storm Damage Indicators
Especially in Conway and Shallotte, inspectors will look for hail dents, tree limb impact points, and signs of wind lift.
