What to Expect During Your Storm Damage Roof Repair
January 16, 2026
Storms are known for harsh winds and severe rain that can easily send shingles into your yard. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, of the estimated 100,000 thunderstorms yearly nationwide, around 10% are classified as severe. Most homeowners need roof repair
after these weather events. This article will review what to expect during the repair.
Inspection
A roofing company will thoroughly inspect your roof before they begin work. This inspection will include looking at any spots that are leaking. Professionals will also look at the entire roof to determine if there is any other damage you may not be able to see from below.
Estimate
Every professional roofing company will give you a complete estimate before they start working. They'll let you know what is wrong with the roof, such as missing shingles, loose gutters, or minor leaks. Some businesses will give you details about how they will repair the roof. After that, they will tell you approximately how much it will cost. It would help if you discussed payment options and what forms of payment the company takes.
Repairs
Most companies show up prepared to work after a severe thunderstorm. However, some businesses are bustling, so they might need help to start work that day. A business will determine if you'll need to tarp off the roof and schedule a date when they can make the necessary repairs. Many companies can do this while you're at work. Companies will often prioritize customers who have more severe damage that is hindering their day-to-day lives.
Assurance
Once the repairs are done, the roofing company will do another inspection. This inspection is typically shorter than the first one. Professionals will inspect the repairs they just made to ensure they did a high-quality job. This is an excellent way for them to double-check the roof to guarantee you won't have any more problems.
The main part of the job is done once the company has inspected the roof. The crew will clean up any debris that is left behind. If any of the repairs fail to function as intended, the company should have labor and material warranties in place. This gives you peace of mind that you'll be covered no matter what happens.
