Hail and wind damage is often invisible from the ground, but it shortens your roof's life and can still be claimed. We inspect free, tarp emergencies 24/7, and handle the insurance side with you. You pay your deductible, we handle the rest.
Tell us your Milwaukee neighborhood and what the storm did, and we'll set up a free inspection. If there's water coming in, call and we'll respond 24/7 to tarp and contain it. No pressure, and we'll tell you honestly whether you have a claim.
Thanks, there. We received your request and respond within 2 hours during business hours.
A Milwaukee storm can leave damage that won't show up as a leak for months, but it's already shortening your roof's life. Here's what we look for.
Hail bruises shingles, dents them, and knocks off the granules that protect them, shortening roof life even when there's no leak yet.Hail →
High wind lifts and creases shingles, breaking the seal that keeps water out, often without blowing them clear off the roof.Wind →
You may find granules in your gutters or downspouts after a storm, a sign the shingle surface took a beating and is wearing thin.
Wind and debris damage flashing around chimneys and vents, a top entry point for water once the seal is compromised.
Once water gets in, it spreads, ceiling stains, insulation, and structure. The sooner it's caught, the smaller the repair.
Storms don't stop at the roof. We also check siding, gutters, and exterior damage that may be part of your claim.

Most hail and wind damage isn't visible from the ground, and often not from inside until a leak appears months later. By then, the storm date can make a claim harder. That's why a prompt, professional inspection matters:
Storm claims can feel like a maze. As your contractor, we document the damage and work directly with your carrier so the process is clear, though your insurer makes the final coverage decision.
We assess the damage and tell you honestly if you have a claim.
Photos and detail in the format your adjuster needs to see.
We're on-site with your adjuster so nothing gets missed.
Approved? Our crews complete the restoration to spec.
