Why Does Wind Cause Roof Damage in Nordic Valley?
Wind-related lifting starts when air moves under an exposed tab and works the shingle against its fasteners.
That upward force can separate the seal between rows, create a visible crease, or weaken the shingle near the nail line.

When Should You Check for Wind Damage in Nordic Valley?
Wind damage should be evaluated after severe gusts if shingles, ridge material, flashing, or roof-edge metal may have shifted.
Shingles stressed by lifting may still be present even after wind has broken the bond between rows.
What Counts as Wind Damage on a Roof in Nordic Valley?
During the wind inspection, we can identify both missing roofing and attached materials that were lifted, creased, loosened, or moved out of position.
A shingle that remains on the roof may be weakened even though the storm did not remove it.
- Missing and displaced shingles: A windstorm can tear shingles away, opening the roof surface below and increasing exposure around the missing piece.
- Lifted and creased shingles: Strong gusts can flex a shingle enough to leave a crease, which can damage the shingle even though it stays on the roof.
- Failed adhesive seal strips: A factory seal helps keep the exposed shingle edge down, and a loosened bond can let later gusts get under the shingle more easily.
- Damaged ridge caps: Hip and ridge shingles take wind at some of the roof’s highest points, so damage can occur at the ridge even when field shingles remain in place.
- Torn or displaced flashing: Wind can lift or displace metal flashing around roof openings and transitions, which can compromise a joint without removing surrounding roofing.
- Roof-edge damage: The outer edges of a roof can be vulnerable to gusts, which can loosen shingles or metal details along the roof perimeter.
We are looking for the shingles that lifted and settled back down, because those are the ones that leak in two years. They are also the ones nobody can see from the ground.

How Do Nordic Valley Roof and Exposure Conditions Affect Wind Damage?
The perimeter of a roof in Nordic Valley is an important part of the wind inspection, which can disturb shingles and metal even when the middle of the slope remains intact.
Wind damage during winter in Nordic Valley can involve roofing that is stiffer or more brittle from the cold, making brittleness and loss of seal important parts of the inspection.
Roofs in Nordic Valley can take wind pressure and debris impact during the same storm, which can produce different repair needs on the same roof.
How Do You Repair Wind Damage in Nordic Valley?
Repair work starts by evaluating neighboring rows, ridge materials, flashing, and roof edges around the obvious problem.
- Inspect safely and assess the affected slopeWe start with safe access and a full-slope inspection and include neighboring rows, ridges, flashing, and roof edges in the evaluation.
- Identify both missing and still-attached damage: We mark missing roofing along with creased, loosened, or unsealed shingles so a settled shingle is not mistaken for an undamaged one.
- Replace damaged shinglesWe remove and replace missing, torn, or creased shingles with the closest available match, and we check how the replacement pieces fit with nearby material.
- Repair surrounding roof details and restore required sealing: The repair includes loose ridge materials, displaced flashing, and damaged roof edges, and we make sure replacement shingles are sealed according to the roofing requirements.
- Review and document the finished repairWe review the completed roofing work and take photographs for the homeowner, and we note whether surrounding shingles limit the reliability of a small repair.

Coury @Courtland Roofing was so helpful in facilitating the replacement of my roof. He advocated on my behalf with the insurance adjuster when they were trying to deny my claim. He was sincere and kind to work with and genuinely tried to give me the best deal he could….it sounds corny, but it felt like I was working with an old friend throughout the process. The end result turned out great and I would definitely call Coury if I were replacing another roof in the future.
