Company Offers 24/7 Emergency Response and Free Storm-Damage Inspection

SEATTLE, WA / ACCESS Newswire / November 18, 2025 / Following a recent wave of high winds and heavy rain across the Pacific Northwest, Guardian Roofing, Gutters & Insulation is urging homeowners to be on alert for hidden storm-related roof damage that may not be immediately visible from the ground. Even minor damage can lead to leaks, mold, and costly interior repairs if left untreated.

"Extreme weather is becoming more frequent in our region, and we're seeing a rise in storm damage that homeowners don't realize has occurred until the next rainfall," said Mat Rzucidlo, President of Guardian Roofing, Gutters & Insulation. "A roof doesn't need to be missing shingles to be compromised-tiny punctures and lifted shingles can let water in. Our goal is to help homeowners act quickly and prevent small issues from becoming major structural problems."

Guardian Roofing recommends that homeowners look for warning signs including:

  • Missing, cracked, or dented shingles

  • Debris impact marks or punctures

  • Shingle granules collecting in gutters or driveways

  • Water stains on ceilings or walls

  • Damp insulation or musty odors in the attic

  • Loose flashing around chimneys, skylights, or vents

In the aftermath of severe weather, many homeowners are hesitant to climb onto their roofs to assess damage. Guardian Roofing emphasizes that a professional inspection is the safest option, as damaged roofing materials may be unstable or slippery.

To assist homeowners, the company has activated its 24/7 Emergency Storm Response Team, available to:

  • Tarp exposed areas

  • Stop active leaks

  • Secure loose roofing materials

  • Reduce further interior or structural damage

  • Provide repair assessments and insurance documentation

"Whether it's securing a roof at 2 a.m. or guiding a family through the insurance process, we're here to help protect homes and peace of mind," France added. "We consider it part of our responsibility to our communities."

Homeowners experiencing leaks, visible damage, or recent extreme weather are encouraged to schedule an inspection as soon as possible.
