What this means for your roof
Wind can disturb seals or damage shingles that remain in place. GAF discusses inspection and repair of affected areas instead of judging the roof only by visible blow-offs.
A useful question for your contractor
Ask whether retained shingles have been checked for damage and whether seals need repair.
Ask for the answer to be tied to the actual roof condition and the exact product being installed. Keep the agreed repair or installation detail with your estimate and project photos.
