Hail damage
Few things can take apart a roof like a strong spring or summer hailstorm. We've seen storms knock off a few shingles and storms wipe out an entire roof.
Hail can bruise and crack shingles without obvious signs from the ground. Damaged shingles keep shedding with the next few high winds, and it isn't long before leaks start — often unnoticed at first, as water flows into insulation and framing. Before long, mold, mildew and rot can make a home hard to live in and hard to sell.
If you notice missing or broken shingles after a storm, give us a call. We'll come out, take a close look, and be honest with you about what kind of damage exists and the best way to fix it.
Wind damage
Here in Oklahoma we get more than our share of high winds — from spring days when it howls for weeks, to supercells that tear shingles off in chunks.
Wind can peel back roofing and underlying material. Once a peel starts, you can lose a lot of roof, exposing insulation and wood to rot and leaks. Over time, high winds also flex the roof, creating small cracks around nails and flashing that lead to more damage the next time the wind blows.
We're used to the challenges of Tulsa-area wind. We know exactly what to look for, the best way to fix it, and how to keep your repair within estimate.
A trusted local alternative to storm chasers
After big storms, questionable operations descend on our area. Rather than gamble on an out-of-town crew, work with a family-owned local company that will still be here when you need us next year — and the year after that.
After a storm, look for
- Dented gutters, downspouts, or vents
- Shingle granules washed onto driveways
- Missing, creased, or lifted shingles
- Dings on AC units, mailboxes, or fences
- New water spots on ceilings
- Debris or limbs on the roof
Storm Damage FAQs
How do I know if hail damaged my roof?
Hail damage is often invisible from the ground. Dented gutters, downspouts, vents, or AC fins are strong clues. The safest route is a free professional inspection — we'll photograph anything we find so you can see it for yourself.
How soon after a storm should I call?
As soon as possible. Most insurance policies have time limits for filing claims, and damaged roofs get worse with every storm that follows. An early inspection protects both your home and your claim.
Should I call my insurance company or a roofer first?
Many homeowners find it helpful to have a roofer inspect first so they understand whether there is damage worth claiming. Our in-house insurance specialists can then help you start the claim and meet the adjuster on site.
