Why Ocean City Roofs Fail 2–3× Faster Than Inland Maryland

Ocean City is built on a 10-mile-long barrier island with the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Sinepuxent Bay on the other. There is zero protection from the elements — making it one of the harshest roofing environments on the East Coast.

Salt aerosol hangs in the air 365 days a year. NOAA data shows Ocean City receives over 45 inches of rain annually, combined with frequent 50–80 mph nor’easters. The UV index regularly hits 10+ in summer, baking shingles brittle. Winter brings freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and pop nails.

Metal components (flashings, drip edges, fasteners) corrode in as little as 5–8 years here — compared to 20+ years just 15 miles inland in Salisbury. Aluminum and galvanized steel literally dissolve from constant salt exposure. This is why you see rust bleeding down so many Ocean City buildings.

High-rise condos face additional challenges: wind speeds increase dramatically with height, and many were built in the 1970s–1990s using materials that were never designed for this environment. Flat roofs on restaurants and hotels collect standing water and get hammered by gulls and boardwalk grease.

Bottom line: If you own property in Ocean City, your roof is under constant attack from salt, wind, water, and sun — and it will fail much sooner than you expect.

8 Pro Tips to Protect Your Home Until We Arrive

1. Place buckets under active leaks and poke a small hole in bulging ceilings — controlled drainage prevents collapse.
2. Never go on a wet or damaged roof yourself — saturated decking can collapse without warning.
3. Clear furniture, electronics, and valuables from affected rooms immediately.
4. Take clear photos and videos of all damage (inside and out) for insurance.
5. Turn off ceiling fans under leaks — water + electricity = danger.
6. If safe, cover furniture with plastic tarps (we provide these free on arrival).
7. Do NOT attempt DIY tarping unless you have proper ladder safety and experience.
8. Call us first — we bring commercial-grade tarps, lifts, and 20 years of coastal experience.
