Roof Damage

Storm Season Roof Tips

Now that spring is here, it is a great time to start thinking about Oklahoma's weather. As many Oklahomans know, tornadoes and damaging stores can happen just about anytime, but the most favorable storm conditions occur from late March through August. Between high winds, hail and torrential rain, storm season can wreak havoc on any home.

Roofing Insurance Claim Mistakes

One of the most common and costliest mistakes homeowners make when it comes to filing roofing related insurance claims is failing to provide adequate documentation. If a roofing problem has led to significant damage that you’re looking to cover under your home insurance policy, it is generally your responsibility to demonstrate beyond a doubt that the issue was not caused by your own negligence.

Storm Damaged Roof

Shingles are designed to protect against the weather, but the wind, rain, and hail that often accompany a storm can cause damage to your roof. It’s also important to remember that not all storm damage is obvious and that hidden damage can cause problems weeks or even months after a storm.
