STORM DAMAGE IS EASY TO MISS—AND EXPENSIVE TO OVERLOOK
Hail and wind damage are not always visible from the ground. A roof can appear normal while shingles, flashing, vents, gutters, siding, and other components have been compromised. Our inspection process is designed to examine the entire property, not just the most obvious area.
WHAT WE INSPECT
• Every accessible roof slope
• Shingles, ridge caps, valleys, flashing, and penetrations
• Vents, pipe boots, skylights, and roof accessories
• Gutters, downspouts, siding, fascia, soffits, and windows
• Soft metals and exterior components that help confirm storm direction and severity
• Interior areas when leakage or moisture is suspected
DAMAGE MUST BE DOCUMENTED CLEARLY
Finding damage is only the first step. We photograph locations, identify patterns, compare repairability, and organize the construction facts so the condition can be understood by the homeowner and evaluated by the insurance company.
WE HEAR “I MUST HAVE MISSED THAT” FOR A REASON
Fast inspections can overlook small but important components. Those omissions can affect the repair plan, code requirements, material matching, and the true cost of restoring the property. Our detailed process is built to reduce those gaps.
INSPECTION BEFORE ASSUMPTION
We do not assume every storm creates a claim, and we do not assume every damaged roof requires replacement. We inspect first, explain what we found, and recommend the solution supported by the property’s actual condition.
AFTER A MIDWEST STORM, GET THE FACTS. DON’T JUST SIGN A CONTRACT WITH A ROOFER WHO DOESN’T UNDERSTAND THE INSURANCE-CLAIM PROCESS.
