Wind-lifted shingles and broken ridge caps
Why it happens here
La Palma gets periodic windstorms that push under the shingle edges and lift them. Older shingles that have already lost their seal are the first to go. Ridge caps are especially vulnerable because they sit at the highest point.
Our approach
We replace lifted shingles with matching material and re-seal the ridge caps with roofing caulk rated for high wind. On exposed roofs, we add extra fasteners at the edges to keep the shingles locked down.
