Preparing Your Roof for Hurricane Season in Maryland
Before hurricane season, schedule a roof inspection, repair any loose shingles or flashing, clean gutters and downspouts, trim back overhanging branches, and document your roof's current condition with photos.
Inspection
Catch loose shingles and failing flashing before the storm makes them worse.
Gutters and downspouts
Clear debris so heavy rain has somewhere to go.
Tree work
Trim branches that could fall on the roof.
Photo documentation
Date-stamped photos help if you need to file a post-storm claim.
