Thorough Physical Documentation of Weather Damage

Filing an insurance claim after a storm can be challenging. Insurance adjusters require clear, physical evidence of storm damage before approving a roof replacement.

Ramos Roofing Plus provides comprehensive storm damage assessments. We inspect your shingles for hail fractures and wind creases, document damage to chimney flashing, and check your gutters and roof vents for impact dents.

We compile our findings into an itemized report complete with high-resolution photos, providing the documentation needed to streamline your claims process.

Frequently Asked Questions

A storm damage assessment is a comprehensive inspection of your property's exterior following a severe weather event. Our inspectors check the shingles for hail bruising and wind lift, inspect flashings and soft metals, check gutters and downspouts, and assess siding and trim for damage.

Severe storms can cause minor damage that isn't visible from the ground but leads to leaks over time. Getting an assessment early allows you to document the damage, prevent structural leaks, and file a timely insurance claim before your policy's filing deadline passes.

No, Ramos Roofing Plus provides 100% free storm damage assessments for all residential and commercial property owners in NWA and the River Valley. We visit your property, perform a thorough inspection, and provide a digital damage report at zero cost.

Our assessment report includes high-resolution photos of all damaged areas (including close-ups of hail strikes and lifted shingles), a count of storm hits in standard test squares, an assessment of soft metals and gutters, and a detailed, line-item repair estimate.

Yes, we highly recommend this. We will meet your insurance adjuster on-site at your property, walk the roof together, and review our assessment findings. This ensures all storm-related damage is documented, helping secure a fair settlement.

Hail strikes leave circular, bruised indentations where the granules have been blasted away, exposing the dark asphalt mat underneath. Our inspectors are trained to identify these specific storm markers, separating hail damage from normal wear and tear.

We check for missing or blown-off shingles, loose or lifted shingles where the wind has broken the sealant bond, and creased shingles where the wind folded them back. Lifted shingles will no longer shed water properly, allowing rain to seep underneath.

If our assessment reveals active leaks, we prioritize emergency tarping to seal the open areas and protect your home's interior. We then coordinate with you to schedule permanent repairs using matching materials to restore your roof's integrity.

A standard residential assessment takes about 30 to 45 minutes. Our inspector walks the roof, checks gutters and siding, compiles the photo report, and then sits down with you to explain the findings and discuss your next steps.

You can schedule a free assessment by calling us at (479) 652-1424 or filling out our online form. We will coordinate a convenient time to inspect your property and help protect your home.
