Signs You Need Storm Damage Restoration & Roof Repair
-
Flashing is the metal bordering the roof, and after a hailstorm, you should check for dents in the metal. This is one of the most obvious and easy-to-spot signs of hail damage.
-
After a storm, your gutters may have detached from your shingles. A malfunctioning gutter can lead to more extensive water damage, so it’s important to repair gutters and downspouts as quickly as possible. Along with roof repair, we also offer gutter repair and siding repair, which you may need after a destructive storm.
-
If you have asphalt shingles, you may be able to see round or tear-drop shaped spots where the hail damaged your roof. If these damaged shingles are not replaced, the water will pool there and become absorbent, eventually causing water damage to the underlayment and decking below the roofing shingles.
-
Hailstones aren’t the only thing that causes storm damage, wind can also damage your roof. If a storm has brought winds of 45 mph or higher to your Northern Colorado building, it’s time to call in a professional roofing contractor to take a look. Loose or missing shingles are the biggest sign of wind damage, but you might also notice chimney issues or curling or peeling shingles.
-
Slate and tile roofs are very beautiful and unique, but like any roofing material, they can be damaged by hail or wind. Check to see if any broken tiles have fallen into your yard or if you can see cracks from your vantage point. Identifying damage to slate or tile is relatively easy since it creates crisp, clean holes and cracks. Again, if you notice any damage, be sure to contact our roofing company for an inspection.
-
Just like you scour your pots and pans after cooking, your metal roof can be scoured by an intense storm. You may see scratch marks or dents, and — depending on the size of the hail — there may even be fractures in the metal. While some hail damage may only be cosmetic, if the protective coating has been removed, the roofing material can rust and lead to further damage. If you have Pride Roofing & Construction inspect your roof, we’ll let you know whether the structural integrity has been compromised or whether your roof has only suffered minor aesthetic damage.
-
Not every sign of hail damage is on the exterior of your home — there are a variety of things you may notice inside that could be related to a hail damaged roof. If you notice things like water stains on your ceiling or walls, mold or mildew, water seepage in your attic, or wet insulation, you may have a roof leak caused by storm damage. If you see these signs at any time, it’s vital to call a roofing company to come to inspect your roof.
-
A large storm can also damage your siding as well as your roof. On siding made of wood, vinyl, or aluminum, you may see impact marks from hail blown into your building. Often, these masks are simply an aesthetic problem, but sometimes the hailstones do pierce holes through the surface of your siding and damage the structural integrity of your siding. If that is the case, you will need to repair it as soon as possible to prevent further damage. Along with roof repair, Pride Roofing & Construction can also repair and install siding, so contact us today if you are having any problems.
The Dangers of Ignoring Storm Damage and Delaying Repairs
Many homeowners underestimate the impact of storm damage, especially if it’s not immediately visible. However, delaying repairs can lead to major structural issues, insurance complications, and costly restoration work down the road.
How Small Storm-Related Issues Can Lead to Expensive Roof Repairs
Even minor storm damage—such as a few missing shingles, small leaks, or lifted flashing—can quickly worsen. When left unchecked, water can seep into the underlying roof structure, leading to:
Mold growth that threatens indoor air quality and requires expensive remediation
Rotted wood decking that weakens roof support and increases repair costs
Increased energy bills due to poor insulation and air leaks
Complete roof failure, requiring full replacement instead of simple repairs
The Impact of Delayed Roof Repairs on Insurance Coverage & Claims
If you wait too long to address storm damage, your homeowner’s insurance policy may not cover the repairs. Insurance providers often expect timely reporting and action after a storm. Ignoring damage could result in:
Claim denials due to negligence in addressing known damage
Partial payouts if additional damage occurs because of delays
Higher premiums due to increased repair costs and repeated claims
Why Immediate Storm Damage Repair is Essential for Home Protection
Taking swift action ensures that minor damage doesn’t become a major crisis. Immediate repairs:
Prevent water infiltration, mold, and structural decay
Ensure insurance coverage remains valid and claim processing is smooth
Protect your home’s value and prevent costly, unexpected repairs
If your home has been impacted by a storm, contact Pride Roofing & Solar for a free damage assessment and expert restoration services.
What to Do Immediately After a Storm Damages Your Home or Roof
Knowing what to do right after a storm can make all the difference in minimizing damage and ensuring a successful insurance claim.
Essential Steps to Take Right Away to Minimize Further Property Damage
Inspect your home’s exterior from a safe distance – Look for missing shingles, dents, or water leaks inside.
Check for water leaks indoors – Stains on ceilings or walls indicate possible roof damage.
Cover vulnerable areas – Use tarps or temporary patches to prevent additional water intrusion.
Turn off electricity in flooded areas – To avoid electrical hazards.
Call a professional for an inspection – Contact Pride Roofing & Solar for an emergency roof assessment.
How to Properly Document Storm Damage for a Successful Insurance Claim
Take clear photos and videos of all visible damage, including the roof, siding, gutters, and windows.
Write down the date and time of the storm and any known weather details (hail size, wind speeds, etc.).
Save receipts for emergency repairs or temporary fixes.
Request a professional inspection report from a certified storm damage contractor to support your claim.
Tips for Finding a Reliable and Trusted Storm Damage Restoration Contractor
Choose a licensed, insured, and certified roofing company like Pride Roofing & Solar.
Look for experience with insurance claims assistance to streamline your process.
Avoid storm chasers who pressure homeowners into signing contracts immediately after a storm.
Check online reviews and ask for referrals from local homeowners.
Understanding Different Types of Storm Damage and Their Effects
Storms affect homes in different ways, depending on wind speeds, hail size, and rainfall amounts.
The Difference Between Wind Damage, Hail Damage, and Heavy Rain Damage
Wind Damage – Causes shingle lifting, missing shingles, and loosened flashing, making roofs vulnerable to leaks.
Hail Damage – Leaves dents, cracks, and granule loss on shingles, weakening their protective layer.
Heavy Rain Damage – Can lead to roof leaks, water pooling, and structural deterioration.
How to Spot Hidden Roof Damage After a Severe Wind or Hail Storm
Check for granules in your gutters, a sign of hail or shingle deterioration.
Look for loose or curling shingles that could lead to leaks.
Inspect the attic for water stains or light shining through gaps.
Schedule a professional roof inspection to uncover hidden issues before they escalate.
How the Severity of a Storm Determines the Extent of Repair Work Needed
Minor Storms – May only require shingle replacements or minor sealing.
Moderate Storms – Can cause widespread damage needing extensive roof repairs.
Severe Storms – May result in complete roof replacement, water damage restoration, and structural repairs.
Preventing Future Storm Damage with Proactive Home Protection
Preventative measures can save you thousands in future repairs and extend the lifespan of your home and roof.
The Best Roofing Materials to Withstand Severe Storms & Extreme Weather
