Storm & Hail Damage

The insurance conversation, before it costs you the claim window

Hail damage to shingles is usually covered by your homeowner's insurance — but most policies set a window from the date of the storm to file, and it's shorter than people expect.

We document the damage first: drone photos of every slope, granule loss and bruising marked slope by slope, before we ever talk numbers. Then we meet your adjuster on the roof and walk them through what we found.

If the claim is approved, you pay your deductible — that's it. We never cover or discount a deductible for you; doing that is insurance fraud, and it's not worth your claim or our name.

How We Work

Four steps, no surprises

01

Free Drone Inspection

We fly the roof (or walk it) and show you exactly what we find — cracked flashing, granule loss, soft decking — no obligation attached.

02

Written, Locked-In Estimate

One number, in writing, before a single shingle comes off. No change orders once the crew's on the roof.

03

The Work

Most tear-offs and reroofs finish in a single day. Tarps go down over your landscaping first, and we run a magnet across the whole yard when the crew packs up.

04

Written Warranty, Registered to You

Manufacturer paperwork filed with your name on it, plus our own workmanship coverage spelled out in the estimate.

FAQ

Questions we hear on every call

How much does a new roof cost?

It depends on your roof's square footage, pitch, how many layers have to come off, and the condition of the decking underneath once we open it up. That's why we measure and inspect before we quote anything — not before.

Does the inspection cost anything?

No. The inspection is free, whether you’re checking on storm damage, a leak, or just an aging roof.

Do you help with the insurance claim?

Yes. We document the damage with drone photos and meet your adjuster on the roof to walk them through it. Filing and approving the claim itself is between you and your insurance company.

How long does the work take?

Most full roof replacements finish in a single day. Repairs and gutter work are usually done the same day too, weather permitting.

What warranty do you get?

A manufacturer's written warranty registered in your name, plus our own workmanship warranty — both spelled out in your estimate before work starts.

Metal or shingles — which is right for my house?

It depends on your roof's pitch, how long you're planning to stay in the house, and what your neighborhood or HOA allows. We'll walk you through the tradeoffs during the inspection.

Precision in every roof. Integrity in every step.

Iowa weather won't wait. Neither should your roof.
