When Damaging Storms Hit

Storm damage of any kind can leave you with a lot of questions. What are the steps to restoring the integrity of your roof? What can you expect from the insurance and coverage side of the matter? Most importantly, who will you hire to get the job done right? Ridgeline Construction Roofing & Exteriors has decades of experience working with home and business owners during stressful situations like a storm-damaged roof. From minor fixes to total roof replacements, we’re your experts for all storm damage repairs.

Storm Damage: First Steps

Regardless of the extent of the storm damage, you need to act fast. Every minute counts in these dire circumstances where significant harm to your structure increases by the minute. In the event that severe storms cause you to evacuate, your first priority is ensuring a safe return back to your property. Downed power lines are extremely dangerous, so be sure to check with your local news outlets for up-to-date info on the developing storm situation. Above all else, you and your family’s safety is the number one priority after a damaging storm in your area.

Returning to Your Home or Business

Once your local authorities have deemed it safe to return, it’s imperative that you get substantial documentation of the storm damages. Pictures, videos, and well-written statements on the extent of the damage will help both the contractor you hire as well as your insurance provider when it’s time to submit a claim. Additionally, and if it’s safe to do so, do your best to cover any storm-damaged area with a heavy-duty tarp. This will help prevent any further damage to your home or business’s roof.

Submitting an Insurance Claim

When you’ve organized your documentation of the storm damage, it’s time to contact your home’s insurance provider. Before you call, be sure to examine your policy to see just exactly the extent of your coverage. When speaking to your representative, report the damages and file a claim. Your provider will assess your property, and determine the full scope of the storm damages, and what needs immediate attention in the case of an emergency situation.

Line Up Your Repairs

Regardless of the severity of the storm damage to your roof, it’s important to schedule your repairs as soon as possible. Whether it’s a simple fix, or a complete replacement, promptly correcting your structure’s cover is your best action towards preventing any further damages caused by excessive exposure to the elements. At Ridgeline Construction Roofing & Exteriors, we understand that every minute counts in these distressing situations and our highly skilled team of trained and certified roofers are ready to get you fixed up fast.

FAQ

Ridgeline Frequently Asked

What material works best?

Choosing the right roofing material is essential for enduring severe weather. At Ridgeline Construction Roofing & Exteriors, we recommend durable options like high-quality asphalt shingles and metal roofing. These materials are engineered to resist high winds, hail, and heavy rain, helping to maintain the integrity of your roof even in the most extreme conditions. Our experts assess your local climate and specific home requirements to provide a solution that not only enhances protection but also improves energy efficiency and reduces maintenance costs over time.

Immediately following a storm, emergency measures like tarping and leak prevention are put in place to protect your home from further damage. Once safety is ensured and a comprehensive damage assessment is completed, the process of installing a new roof typically begins within one to three weeks. This timeframe accounts for necessary steps such as filing insurance claims, obtaining permits, and scheduling with our team. At Ridgeline Construction Roofing & Exteriors, we work diligently to restore your roof’s integrity while keeping your home secure throughout every phase of the process.

After a severe storm, it’s important to inspect your roof for clear signs of damage. Look for missing, cracked, or curled shingles, sagging areas, and any water leaks or stains inside your home. Other indicators include debris accumulation, damaged flashing, or compromised gutters. A professional inspection from Ridgeline Construction Roofing & Exteriors can uncover hidden issues before they escalate, ensuring your roof is safe and secure.

Navigating storm warranties and insurance claims can be challenging when your roof is damaged. Many roofing warranties cover workmanship and materials but may exclude certain storm-related issues, so it’s essential to know what your warranty entails. Meanwhile, most homeowner insurance policies provide coverage for storm damage—often with specific deductibles and requirements for proper documentation. At Ridgeline Construction Roofing & Exteriors, we help you understand your policy details, gather comprehensive evidence like photos and repair estimates, and guide you through the claims process to ensure you receive the full benefits available. This proactive approach not only streamlines the repair process but also safeguards your home against future weather-related surprises.
