We also flag any pre-existing wear we find during the inspection separately from new storm damage, since insurers distinguish between the two.
Hail and wind damage isn't always visible from the driveway — our Storm Damage Roof Repair inspections check every slope, not just what's easy to see.
We also keep records of regional Vashon, WA storm events, which can help corroborate the timing of damage on a claim.
Every Storm Damage Roof Repair assessment is conducted by a technician trained specifically in storm damage evaluation.
Post-storm call volume spikes fast — our Vashon crews prioritize active leaks first, then work through the queue.
No verbal-only pricing, ever, even during high storm-season demand.
Photo reports are formatted to match how Vashon, WA insurance adjusters typically review storm claims.
Most storm-related Storm Damage Roof Repair visits combine two or three of these elements in a single inspection.
Hail damage often shows as bruised or missing granules rather than obvious cracks, and it's easy to miss from the ground.
High wind can lift or tear shingles without leaving an obvious gap, weakening the seal until the next storm finishes the job.
Tree limbs and wind-blown debris can crack decking as well as shingles, so we check underneath the surface damage too.
We document storm damage with photos and measurements formatted for how Vashon, WA carriers typically review claims.
Once damage is documented, we move to repair — targeted fixes for isolated damage, full sections where needed.
Gutters torn loose by wind are reattached and resloped as part of a full storm damage visit.
Storm damage assessments move a little slower than a routine repair call, since documentation quality matters for your claim.
Technicians check every slope, not just the side most visibly affected by the storm.
Photo documentation and a written quote are provided in the same visit.
We follow up after repairs to confirm everything held through the next weather event.
Hail damage wasn't obvious to us, but they found it and documented it properly for the claim.
