When is Arizona’s monsoon season and why does it matter for your roof?

Monsoon season runs from mid-June through late September, bringing heavy rain, high winds, and occasional lightning strikes. While this weather provides much-needed moisture, it also puts significant stress on your roof. Without preparation, small vulnerabilities can turn into expensive repairs.


How does monsoon weather damage roofs?

  • Heavy Rainfall: Can cause leaks if shingles, flashing, or underlayment are damaged — and may lead to mold or structural weakening.

  • Strong Winds: Can lift shingles, dislodge tiles, and send debris crashing into your roof.

  • Wind-Driven Rain: Forces water into gaps and under materials, increasing leak risk.

  • Lightning Strikes: Rare but potentially destructive, causing fires or structural compromise.


How can I prepare my roof for monsoon season?

  1. Inspect Your Roof — Look for missing or damaged shingles, cracked flashing, or worn sealants.

  2. Clean Gutters & Downspouts — Prevent water backup and seepage under the roofline.

  3. Trim Overhanging Branches — Reduce the risk of storm debris damage.

  4. Check Roof Ventilation — Prevents trapped moisture and mold growth.

  5. Repair Damage Promptly — Small fixes now prevent major storm-season failures.
