Wind Damage Hits Jacksonville, FL Homes Caused by Recent Storms Reports Roofing Company

Wind damage hits Jacksonville, FL homes caused by recent storms reports the roofing company Roof Link Inc. The recent passage of Hurricane Sandy and new tropical storm winds has resulted in wind damage that is now being addressed by roofers in and around Jacksonville, FL.

Jacksonville, Florida (PRWEB) November 03, 2012

Hurricane force winds are one of the most destructive elements to roofing materials in the state of Florida. Midwestern states that are in tornado risk areas usually require contractors to use wind rated roofing supplies to ensure safety and quality.

States like Florida with a predictable hurricane season each year have recently changed legislation that pertains to roofing materials. The Roof Link company refers contractors that are state licensed and adhere to this new legislation for all work performed in Florida and surrounding states.

Apart from wind deterioration, natural elements can weaken roofing materials when exposed repeatedly. The rain, hail and solar rays that are usually part of severe weather can reduce the strength and effectiveness of roof shingles or other coverings according to research. Both asphalt shingles and flat roof systems are susceptible to water damage if holes or gaps are present in the roofing structure.

The Roof Link Inc. company is helping to eliminate these issues by using materials rated for high wind and water usage. Materials from the Owens Corning company are now used for their weatherproof ratings.

Duval County where Jacksonville is located represents one North Florida area currently affected by recent storms. Surrounding cities like St. Augustine, Orange Park, Atlantic Beach and other communities depend on roofing companies that can respond quickly during times of need.

One way that the Roof Link company is helping to increase response time is by working its referred contractors seven days a week. These added man hours are designed to place Roof Link in one of the first place positions as a first responder company in North Florida.

While the hurricane season in Florida has officially ended, many homeowners upgrade roofing materials during this down time each year. Homeowners or business owners that want to obtain a quote for roofing services can contact Roof Link directly at the following address:
