When severe weather sweeps through Pottawatomie County, Shawnee houses are battered by an unremitting attack of high winds powerful enough to compromise the integrity of your most treasured asset. At BISON Restoration, we understand that the transition from Oklahoma’s wild fall storms to cold winter weather leaves little leeway for wasted time when it comes to wind damage to your house’s building envelope.
Wind damage might be subtle or direct, but each requires storm damage restoration for your Shawnee property. Seemingly minor issues with your roof, eaves, and siding today could become severe structural problems after winter arrives with frigid temperatures, ice, and snow. We have seen how lifted shingles or an initial soffit opening can result in water intrusion, leading to thousands of dollars in additional damage over the winter season.
Why Timing Is Important in Oklahoma
Local weather conditions are unique here, making it particularly important. Shawnee is in an area where fall storms can produce sustained winds of more than 40 mph. After those high winds blow through our winter freeze-thaw cycles, your building envelope’s weak points are vulnerable to the elements. What starts as wind-damaged flashing or damaged eaves quickly becomes ice-damming, water intrusion, and even mold growth inside wall cavities.
Critical Areas That Need Immediate Attention
Common wind damage that requires immediate attention includes:
- Missing or blown-off roof shingles that permit water to intrude underlayment
- Fascia board and soffit damage that minimizes attic ventilation
- Loose or torn flashing over chimneys, vents, and roof valleys
- Separated or torn siding that permits wind-borne rain to intrude into walls
- Aging gutters and downspouts that fail to drain water adequately from foundations
Our Helpful Approach
We pledge to undertake all storm damage restoration work with speed and precision. Our experts conduct thorough inspections to identify all areas of damage, not just the easily visible ones. We know that neglecting a small section of damaged eaves today could be a hazardous choice that haunts you deep in the frigid winter.
