Roofing in Waverly: what to know

Waverly is the Bremer County seat, on the Cedar River north of Waterloo and home to Wartburg College. The town has historic homes near downtown and the college, plus newer neighborhoods on the east and west sides.

Waverly was hit hard by the 2008 Cedar River flood, and many homes were repaired or rebuilt afterward. Those post-2008 roofs are now 15 to 18 years old, which is when hail bruising and granule loss start to show.
