Roof Repair & Storm Damage Replacement in Warwick

Look, I’ve been replacing roofs in this part of Worth County for over twenty years, and I can tell you Warwick gets hit harder than folks realize. It’s that flat, open farmland all around us. When a spring thunderstorm rolls in from the southwest, there’s nothing to break it up—no hills, no tree lines thick enough to slow it down. That wind just barrels across the peanut and cotton fields, picking up speed, and by the time it hits your house, it’s like a freight train. We’ll get those straight-line winds, sometimes 60, 70 miles an hour, that peel shingles right off the edges. And the hail? It’s not those little pea-sized pellets you see up north. We get those big, jagged chunks, especially during the late April through June storms, and they come down at an angle, hammering the same spot over and over until the granules are stripped bare.

What makes it worse is the heat and humidity right before the storms hit. That warm, moist air from the Gulf sits low, and when a cold front pushes in, it creates those violent, rotating supercells that seem to stall right over the county. I’ve seen hail the size of golf balls punch straight through asphalt shingles, and the wind will lift the edges of your roof deck just enough to let rain drive in sideways. It’s not a matter of *if* you’ll get damage—it’s a matter of *when*. And because the storms often come in waves, one weak spot from a July storm can turn into a full-blown leak by the time the August afternoon thunderstorms roll through. You might not see it from the ground, but trust me, the roof is taking a beating every single season.
