What Causes Roof Shingles to Go Missing?
Several factors can cause shingles to loosen or blow off your roof, including:
- Strong windstorms
- Aging roofing materials
- Poor installation
- Hail damage
- Falling tree branches
- Normal wear and tear over time
Even losing one or two shingles can expose the roofing underlayment and decking to moisture.
