In the meantime, even in the warm season, it is better to park your car in the renovated garage!
In the past, the main reason for having a garage in Germany (apart from protection against theft) was primarily to protect against winter weather conditions and the associated increase in comfort when using the car (no ice scraping, no clearing of snow, tolerable interior temperatures and good visibility right from the start). However, with the effects of climate change, the weather protection of the garage is also becoming increasingly important in the warmer months of the year. Because with the increasing number of spring, summer and autumn storms and storms, it is becoming more and more important that the garage roof is intact even in the warm season!
Clearly verifiable: The number of storms is increasing!
Recent years have shown that storms in Germany have increased significantly in intensity and frequency during the warm season. There are many reasons for this. The fact is that, among other things, the number of extremely hot days is increasing massively – and with these hot days also the number of storms. US researchers are already predicting that this effect will intensify, especially in our temperate latitudes. The number of days with dangerous heat is expected to more than double by 2050 – and with it the number of storms and thunderstorms with heavy rainfall. It is precisely these heavy rains, as well as hail and strong winds, that can cause considerable damage to properties, cars, infrastructure and furniture. This is why it is so important to take appropriate precautions to protect your property.

Optimal weather protection for parked cars & co.: the renovated garage roof
The garage roof plays a crucial role in protecting your car and garden and leisure equipment from the increasingly capricious German weather – especially in the warmer months of the year. An intact garage roof not only protects against hail and flying branches – it also ensures that rainwater does not penetrate and that your vehicle and valuables in the garage are protected from moisture and damage. A damaged or leaking roof can lead to water ingress and moisture problems that can cause long-term damage.
The importance of professional garage roof renovation for storm protection
To ensure that your garage is protected from the elements, professional garage roof renovation is highly recommended for older garages. Experienced specialists like ours at ZAPF can inspect your garage roof for damage and repair it or completely replace the garage roof waterproofing. The specialists have the expertise and experience to carry out the renovation efficiently and reliably.
Single-pitch garage roof structure: particularly durable and visually appealing at the same time
An extremely interesting way to improve the weather protection of your garage is to build a single-pitch garage roof on top of the old flat garage roof. Compared to flat roofs, a shed roof provides even better drainage and protects against water accumulating on the roof. It also offers a particularly robust and reliable construction that can reliably withstand even demanding weather conditions.
In summary, it can be said that The weather protection of your garage for your car is not only important in winter, but also gains importance in the warmer seasons. With the increasing number of summer storms and storms, it is advisable to have the garage roof renovated by professionals or to have a single-pitch roof installed as soon as possible and not just for the next winter. An intact roof structure protects your vehicle and valuables from penetrating moisture (and the resulting mold and mildew stains) and other weather-related damage. Rely on the expertise of professionals like our specialists at ZAPF to optimize the year-round weather protection of your garage and defy the capricious weather conditions in Germany with professional help.
