Step 1: Prioritize Safety First


If your roof has been damaged during a storm, your first concern must be safety. Look for signs of danger such as:

  • Downed power lines
  • Active leaks or sagging ceilings
  • Loose or hanging roof materials
  • Exposed nails or glass

If water is entering your home, do not attempt to climb on the roof. Call the professionals at ASAP Roofing and Exteriors to assess damage safely.

Step 2: Inspect the Damage From the Ground


Use your phone or camera to document visible damage from ground level. This may include:

  • Missing or curled shingles
  • Dents in gutters or flashing
  • Debris piles or tree limbs on the roof
  • Visible hail strikes or granule loss

This documentation is crucial for insurance purposes and will help our team assess the severity when we arrive for a formal inspection.

Step 3: Schedule a Free Roof Inspection


We offer fast, no-obligation inspections for homeowners affected by storms. Our certified roofing experts know exactly what to look for and will provide:

  • A detailed report of visible and hidden damage
  • Moisture scans (if needed)
  • A photo-documented summary
  • Honest repair or replacement recommendations

Prompt inspection helps prevent secondary water damage, mold, and rot from setting in.

Step 4: File Your Insurance Claim Properly


If your damage is storm-related, most homeowner’s insurance policies will cover repair or full replacement. Our team helps you:

  • Understand your policy terms
  • Provide photo documentation for your adjuster
  • Attend adjuster meetings to advocate for fair coverage
  • Ensure all storm-related damage is included in the claim

Note: ASAP Roofing and Exteriors is not a public adjuster. However, we work directly with your insurance company to ensure your repair process is smooth and accurate.

FAQ – Storm Damage Roof Repairs

How soon should I inspect my roof after a storm?
Immediately. Even if you don’t see visible leaks, hidden damage can worsen over time.

Does insurance cover full roof replacement?
In many cases, yes. If your shingles are damaged beyond repair, full replacement is often approved.

Should I call my insurance or a roofer first?
Call us first—we’ll inspect and help you prepare a stronger claim with proper documentation.

How long do I have to file a claim?
Policies vary, but most give you up to 12 months. Still, it’s best to act within days of the storm.

Can you start repairs before insurance approves the claim?
Yes, for emergency tarping or temporary repairs. Full work begins once insurance settles.
