Straight-line winds and storm gusts can lift shingle tabs, breaking the tar seals that keep them flat. Once the seal is broken, the shingle is vulnerable to being blown off entirely.
Our wind damage repair service secures loose flashing, replaces missing shingles, and swaps out creased tabs (which have lost their structural strength). We use high-wind shingles (like TAMKO Titan XT) with reinforced nail zones for our replacements.
Ramos Roofing Plus responds quickly to stabilize wind-damaged roofs, sealing exposed decking to prevent rain from getting inside your home.
Keep an eye out for these crucial signs to prevent minor issues from turning into major structural damage.

Call (479) 652-1424Common signs include missing or blown-off shingles, shingles that are loose or lifted, creased shingles where the wind folded them back, and damaged or loose flashing around chimneys and valleys. Wind can also blow tree branches onto the roof, causing structural punctures.
High winds can get underneath shingles and break their sealant bond. Once the bond is broken, the shingle lifts, flaps in the wind, and creasing occurs. If the sealant bond is broken, the shingle will no longer shed water properly, allowing rain to seep underneath and cause leaks.
Yes, sudden wind damage (including damage from severe thunderstorms, microbursts, and tornadoes) is typically covered by standard homeowner's insurance. We help homeowners document the damage with photos and provide detailed estimates to support their claims.
You should repair wind damage immediately. Missing or lifted shingles expose the underlying felt underlayment and wood decking to rain. Felt is not waterproof, and exposed wood will rot quickly, leading to attic leaks, ruined insulation, and interior ceiling damage.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency tarping and roof patching. If high winds blow off shingles and cause an active leak, call us at (479) 652-1424. We will dispatch a crew to install temporary waterproof tarps to protect your home's interior until permanent repairs are made.
If the wind damage is limited to a small section, we can replace the missing shingles and reseal the surrounding shingles. However, if the wind has broken the sealant bond across multiple facets of an old, brittle roof, a complete replacement is required to ensure reliability.
We source matching shingle profiles and colors from top manufacturers. If your roof is older and shingles have faded from sun exposure, we match the faded code as closely as possible to ensure the patch blends cleanly with your existing roof.
Our standard architectural shingles carry a wind rating of 110 to 130 MPH. For high-wind areas, we install premium shingles like the TAMKO Titan XT, which features a reinforced nail zone and carries a Class H wind rating of up to 160 MPH, preventing future blow-offs.
We remove the surrounding shingles, lift the damaged flashing, clean the area, install new metal flashing secured with rust-free fasteners, seal it with high-grade commercial sealants, and then re-install the shingles to ensure a water-tight seal.
Call us at (479) 652-1424 or fill out our online form. We will schedule a convenient time for an inspector to perform a free check of your roof, check for lifted shingles, and provide a detailed written estimate for repairs.
