We also flag any pre-existing wear we find during the inspection separately from new storm damage, since insurers distinguish between the two.
We photograph damage from multiple angles and distances, matching the level of detail Alpha, IL adjusters typically expect to see in a claim submission.
Our Storm Damage Roof Repair reports note both storm damage and any pre-existing wear separately, which adjusters appreciate.
Full insurance and licensing documentation available on request.
Post-storm call volume spikes fast — our Alpha crews prioritize active leaks first, then work through the queue.
No verbal-only pricing, ever, even during high storm-season demand.
We've seen what speeds a claim through and what slows it down, and we document accordingly.
Most storm-related Storm Damage Roof Repair visits combine two or three of these elements in a single inspection.
We check every slope methodically for impact marks that could compromise the shingle's remaining lifespan.
We check shingle tabs and seal lines across the whole roof, not just the visibly missing sections.
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 Alpha, IL 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.
We check for hail bruising, lifted shingles, and debris impact across the full roof.
Photo documentation and a written quote are provided in the same visit.
Repairs are scheduled and completed to manufacturer spec, with documentation ready for your adjuster if you're filing a claim.
They walked us through what was worth claiming and what wasn't, no pressure either way.
