Storm damage covers a range of issues — here's what falls under our Storm Damage Roof Repair service.
Hail damage often shows as bruised or missing granules rather than obvious cracks, and it's easy to miss from the ground.
We check shingle tabs and seal lines across the whole roof, not just the visibly missing sections.
Tree limbs and wind-blown debris can crack decking as well as shingles, so we check underneath the surface damage too.
We document storm damage with photos and measurements formatted for how Palo Alto, CA carriers typically review claims.
Once damage is documented, we move to repair — targeted fixes for isolated damage, full sections where needed.
We check gutters and downspouts alongside the roof, since storm damage rarely stops at the roofline.
Storm damage assessments move a little slower than a routine repair call, since documentation quality matters for your claim.
A Storm Damage Roof Repair technician inspects every roof slope in person, not just what's visible from the ground.
Photo documentation and a written quote are provided in the same visit.
Repairs are scheduled and completed to manufacturer spec, with documentation ready for your adjuster if you're filing a claim.
