• Storm damage from nor'easters: High winds can lift shingles, damage flashing, and tear off gutter systems
• Fallen tree damage: Dover's mature oak and maple trees can cause catastrophic roof damage during storms
• Ice dam storm damage: Water backing up under shingles and leaking into historic homes
• Sudden leaks during heavy rain: Immediate interior protection needed
