Hail Damage Roof Inspection in Lafayette Avenue, Oolitic

Lafayette Avenue is one of Oolitic's longer residential streets, with property records showing an average build year around 1935, placing most homes in the mid-Depression through early postwar era and putting their roofs well into replacement territory. The street runs through the town's established grid where older bungalows and modest two story homes are the dominant form, and many of these structures have seen at least one re roofing cycle that may have left aging decking or improper ventilation hidden beneath current shingles. Lawrence County's documented tornado and severe thunderstorm history makes wind lifted tabs and hail bruised shingles recurring issues on homes of this age and profile.

Crews working Lafayette Avenue carry the same protocol they use anywhere in Oolitic: tarps over the landscaping, a magnet pass at the end, and nothing left in the driveway once the dumpster has gone.
