Coastal Georgia Weather Risks
Why regular inspections are critical in Savannah & Coastal Georgia
Annual Threats
Hurricane Season
June 1 - November 30. Coastal GA faces major storms every 3-5 years. Pre-season inspection (April-May) identifies vulnerabilities.
Salt Air Corrosion
Metal fasteners and flashings corrode 3-5x faster in coastal areas. Annual inspections catch deterioration early.
Humidity & Moisture
75%+ humidity year-round. Thermal imaging detects hidden moisture before mold develops.

Why Regular Roof Inspections Are Critical in Coastal Georgia
Your roof is your home's first defense against Coastal Georgia's harsh elements: hurricanes, tropical storms, intense UV exposure, salt air corrosion, and heavy rainfall. Regular professional inspections are your best insurance against expensive surprise repairs.
Most homeowners only think about their roof when there's a visible leak - but by then, damage may have been accumulating for months or years. Hidden moisture intrusion can rot decking, grow mold, and compromise structural integrity long before water drips into your living space.
Our professional roof inspections identify problems early - when repairs are minor and affordable, not major and catastrophic. We catch deteriorating shingles, failing flashings, ventilation issues, and storm damage before they escalate into emergency situations.
