BLOG Top 5 Signs Your Roof Is Failing This Summer (And What to Do About It) Jun 18, 2025

Summer in Houston brings intense heat, strong UV rays, and unpredictable weather. Your roof works hard to protect your home — but when it begins to fail, it can lead to costly damage fast.

At E & E Roofing and Exteriors LLC, we help homeowners throughout Houston, Tomball, and The Woodlands catch roof issues before they spiral into expensive repairs.

Here are 5 signs your roof is failing this summer — and what to do about them.

1️⃣ Curled, Cracked, or Missing Shingles

The summer sun can warp asphalt shingles, making them brittle and prone to curling or cracking. You might also notice shingles sliding off or completely missing.

🛠️ What to do:

Call for a free roof inspection. If only a few shingles are affected, repairs may be enough. Widespread damage could mean it's time for a replacement.

2️⃣ Discolored Patches or Granule Loss

Granules protect your shingles from UV damage. If you see dark spots, streaking, or a lot of granules in your gutters, your shingles may be degrading from the heat.

🛠️ What to do:

We’ll check if the shingles are still protecting your roof or if they’ve reached the end of their life span.

3️⃣ Ceiling Stains or Water Spots

If you notice discoloration on your ceiling or walls, your roof might be leaking — and the heat is only accelerating the damage.

🛠️ What to do:

Don’t wait. Leaks can spread and lead to mold or interior damage. E & E Roofing offers quick, accurate leak detection.

4️⃣ Sagging Roof Lines or Soft Spots

A sagging roof or soft sections on your roof deck can signal deeper structural issues, especially if heavy rain or storms follow the heat.

🛠️ What to do:

Get an expert assessment ASAP. These signs often indicate compromised decking or trapped moisture.

5️⃣ Higher Energy Bills Than Normal

If your A/C is working harder than usual, your roof may be to blame. Heat-damaged shingles and poor ventilation can trap heat in your attic.

🛠️ What to do:

We’ll inspect your ventilation system and suggest improvements like radiant barriers or cool roof shingles.
