Vulnerable Roofing Materials
-
Asphalt shingles: Most common, but also most prone to curling and blow-offs
-
Wood shakes: Can crack and split under wind stress
-
Metal panels: Secure, but improperly fastened panels may peel up
-
Older roofs: Degraded adhesives or brittle shingles are easily torn away
If your Nashville home has an older or improperly installed roof, it’s even more vulnerable to strong winds.
Wind Damage
At Nashville Professional Roofers, we understand how severe Tennessee weather can be—especially when it comes to wind damage. Our city is no stranger to intense thunderstorms, tornadoes, and straight-line winds that leave a trail of roofing destruction behind. If your roof has been impacted by high winds in Nashville, you need a trusted local roofing company that can inspect, repair, and restore your home with precision and urgency.
How Wind Damages Roofs in Nashville
The Science Behind Wind Damage
Wind creates pressure zones on your roof. Uplift pressure pulls materials away, especially on edges, corners, and ridgelines. When wind speed exceeds 45 mph, it can begin damaging shingles—tearing them off or curling them up. Tornadoes and straight-line winds, which are common in Nashville, can cause severe uplift and even structural failure.
Signs of Wind Damage to Watch For
-
Missing, cracked, or lifted shingles
-
Exposed underlayment or sheathing
-
Loose flashing around chimneys or vents
-
Debris or branches on your roof
-
Water spots on ceilings (indicative of leaks caused by wind damage)
