The first hours after storm damage
Stay off the roof
Look from the ground. A wet or damaged roof is dangerous.
Photograph before cleanup
Record the roof, gutters, siding and any interior leaks before anything is moved or repaired.
Cover exposed areas
Put a tarp over openings if it is safe to do so, or have a roofer do it, and keep the receipts.
Notify your insurer, then inspect
Report the damage to your insurance company, and have a roofer inspect before you sign for any repair.
Repair or replace after a storm?
It depends on the roof’s age and how widespread the damage is. A leaking pipe boot, a failed flashing detail or a few wind-lifted shingles is usually a repair; widespread wear, repeated leaks or soft decking point toward replacement.
The repair and replacement cost guides on the National Roofing Directory give low, typical and high estimates for each.
