Winter Storm Damage

Did your home receive damage from the recent winter storm?
Ice and wind from winter storms can damage your home as much as a traditional thunderstorm.

Ice dams can tear off gutters, loosen shingles, and cause water to back up and pour into your house. When that happens, the results aren't pretty: peeling paint, warped floors, stained and sagging ceilings. Not to mention soggy insulation in the attic, which loses R-value and becomes a magnet for mold and mildew.
Hacking away at ice dams with a hammer, chisel, or shovel is bad for your roofing—and dangerous for you. Call the roofing experts at Hoover Contracting Inc. to get your roof inspeected today.
