Wind, Dust, and West Texas Roofs: What Every Homeowner Needs to Know
In West Texas, wind and dust aren’t just part of the landscape—they’re part of everyday life. These elements can wear down your roof over time, especially if it wasn’t built with local conditions in mind. At Valley Ridge Powered by Frontier Roofing, we help homeowners stay ahead of the damage before small issues turn into costly repairs.
What Wind Can Do to Your Roof
West Texas is known for its powerful wind gusts. Over time, these can loosen shingles, shift flashing, and cause debris to strike your roof. Even if the damage isn’t obvious right away, small cracks and gaps can allow water to seep in and weaken the structure underneath.
The Problem with Dust
Dust storms are more than a nuisance. Fine particles can collect under shingles, block vents, and build up in gutters. When this happens, your roof loses its ability to “breathe,” leading to moisture retention, increased energy bills, and even mold growth in your attic.
What to Look Out For
Not sure if your roof has been affected? Watch for signs like lifted shingles, granule loss, clogged gutters, or spots on your ceiling. If you notice any of these, it’s best to schedule an inspection before the next storm rolls through.
