Shreveport homeowners should inspect their roofs for several key indicators after a storm to identify potential damage early. External warning signs include missing, cracked, curling, or buckling shingles, as well as sagging rooflines. You should also check gutters for excessive granule loss, which appears as gritty buildup. Interior clues include yellow or brown water stains on ceilings or walls, damp insulation, or peeling paint.

Following severe weather, specifically look for dented metal flashing, displaced or lifted shingles, circular marks on shingles without granules, or dents on vents and chimney caps.
