Stormseal delivers a storm protection solution that heat shrinks to damaged structures, providing superior protection over flapping tarps that lead to additional damage.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The shortage of building material and particularly shingles, means homeowners will be waiting months to get their damaged roof repaired. \u201cWe are hearing from contractors that they simply cannot get shingles,\u201d said Matthew Lennox, CEO of Stormseal. \u201cIt\u2019s taking four to six weeks at a minimum in many areas, plus the cost of plywood has skyrocketed. This, combined with the enormous amount of damage on the Gulf Coast, is delaying contractors\u2019 ability to repair storm damaged homes.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4170\" src=\"https:\/\/stormseal.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/stormseal-asphalt-shingle-shortage-2-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Asphalt Shingle Shortage Will Delay Storm Damage Repairs\" width=\"450\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stormseal.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/stormseal-asphalt-shingle-shortage-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/stormseal.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/stormseal-asphalt-shingle-shortage-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/stormseal.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/stormseal-asphalt-shingle-shortage-2.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lake Charles and other areas that have suffered repeated hits from hurricanes are seeing additional property damage because the blue tarps on their roofs are blowing away when the next storm hits. Stormseal has proven that it stays put in up to 100 mile-per-hour winds, protecting the home and preventing additional damage from water intrusion.<\/p>\n<p>Contractors are backlogged for months with repair work from the previous storms and will struggle to keep up with the additional damage caused by Hurricane Zeta. \u201cTarps are meant to be a quick, short-term solution and are effective when repairs can be made in a day or two,\u201d explained Lennox. \u201cThey were never meant to provide long-term protection like Stormseal does. When repairs aren\u2019t going to happen for months, it\u2019s important for homeowners to know that there is a better option.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stormseal has protected more than 4,000 properties in the United States and over 11,000 globally. Waterproof, able to withstand hail and 100 mile-per-hour winds, Stormseal is the smart choice for temporary protection.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stormseal.com\/us\/become-a-stormseal-installer\/\">Become a certified installer.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rooferscoffeeshop.com\/directory\/stormseal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Learn more about Stormseal in their RoofersCoffeeShop\u00ae Directory.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stormseal\u00ae has been ranked #5 in the Asia Pacific category on Fast Company\u2019s prestigious annual list of the world\u2019s Most Innovative Companies for 2020.
