Storm Damaged Roof Repairs

Roofs in Rhode Island are prone to damage from snow, heavy rain, hail, and strong wind. If you need emergency roof repairs following storm damage and want help navigating a property damage insurance claim, the professionals at Rhode Island Roofing are here to serve.

Signs of Potential Roof Storm Damage

Some signs your roof has experienced storm damage and needs repairs include the following:

  • Missing shingles or shingle damage: This damage usually occurs due to high winds or hail. You can often see missing shingles from the ground, but damaged shingles will be harder to spot. Cracked or dented shingles or those with holes in them can allow water into your home, so they are important to replace. Professional roofers can conduct an inspection to find damaged shingles.
  • Debris: Storms can cause debris to fall onto your roof, which can damage your shingles or compromise your roof’s structural integrity. For example, the impact of a tree branch and not necessarily a heavy one, falling on your roof during a storm may cause some damage. 
  • Ceiling leaks: If you notice your ceiling or attic leaking after a storm, you might have roof damage. You can inspect your ceiling with a flashlight to spot less obvious signs of leaking. 
  • Loose fittings or shifted flashing: Fittings and flashing keep water out of your home during a storm. Strong winds can cause fittings to come loose and flashing to shift, causing damage. While this damage is often caused by hail — which is rare in Rhode Island — you’ll want to keep an eye out for damaged roof components in the event of a hailstorm. 
  • Ice dams: In the winter, ice dams can form when snow on a roof melts and is blocked from draining due to clogged gutters or drainpipes, and then refreezes. Ice dams prevent melted snow from falling off the roof and can cause damage to shingles and gutters. 

What to Do When Your Roof Has Storm Damage

If you notice roof damage from a storm, the first thing to do is contact your homeowners insurance company. Your insurance agent may send an adjuster to inspect the damage and approve the claim, or they will ask you to contact a roofing contractor to conduct the inspection. If it is an emergency contact Rhode Island Roofing directly and we’ll help you handle your homeowner property damage claim.

If your insurance provider takes this approach, you’ll want to call the roofing experts at Rhode Island Roofing next to inspect your roof and document the damage for your insurance provider. 

If part of the damage to your roof involves missing or damaged shingles, Rhode Island’s matching law means you may qualify for a roof replacement covered by insurance. Standard policies cover irreparable damage caused by hazards like storms.
