What Types of Roof Storm Damage Do We Repair?

Storm damage can affect your roof in multiple ways, and each type requires specialized knowledge and repair techniques. Our experienced team at Red Diamond Roofing has encountered every form of storm damage imaginable across Colorado’s Front Range. We conduct thorough inspections to identify all areas of concern, even those not immediately visible from the ground.

Hail Damage

Hailstorms are among the most destructive weather events for Colorado roofs, causing dents, cracks, and granule loss on shingles. These impacts compromise your roof’s protective barrier, leading to premature aging and potential leaks.

Wind Damage

High winds can lift, tear, or completely remove shingles, leaving your roof vulnerable to water infiltration. Wind damage often affects roof edges, corners, and ridge caps first, but it can impact any area of your roof, depending on the storm’s severity.

Water Damage

When storm damage compromises your roof’s waterproof barrier, water can seep into your attic, insulation, and living spaces. Water damage from storms often starts small but quickly escalates, causing rot, mold growth, and structural deterioration.

Fallen Debris

Trees, branches, and airborne debris during storms can puncture, crack, or crush roofing materials, creating immediate vulnerabilities. Debris damage ranges from minor surface scratches to major structural compromise requiring emergency repairs.

The Dangers of Ignoring Storm Damage

Addressing storm damage promptly safeguards your home from escalating issues that become costly over time. Even small, visible damage can hide severe deterioration beneath the surface. Acting fast helps prevent structural failures that threaten your home’s safety and longevity.

Immediate and Short-Term Risks of Storm Damage:

  • Minor roof damage can lead to water infiltration, allowing moisture to enter during the next rainfall.
  • Wet insulation loses effectiveness, increasing energy costs while moisture spreads through your attic.
  • Mold and mildew begin forming within weeks, spreading through attic spaces and walls.
  • Compromised shingles become prone to wind uplift, expanding the damaged area with each storm.
  • Interior damage follows, including ceiling stains, paint deterioration, and even electrical hazards from water exposure.

Long-Term Consequences of Unrepaired Storm Damage:

  • Neglect accelerates wear and tear, reducing the lifespan of a damaged roof by half.
  • Wood rot develops in the roof decking, weakening key structural supports.
  • Mold spreads through HVAC systems, posing health risks to your household.
  • Insurance claims may be denied if you delay repairs after a documented storm.
  • Property values drop when home inspections reveal water damage and deferred maintenance.

Roofing Warranty vs. Insurance Claim: What Really Covers Storm Damage?

After a storm, understanding the difference between your roof’s warranty coverage and your homeowner’s insurance policy is crucial to avoiding costly surprises. Roof warranties typically protect against manufacturer defects and workmanship issues, but they don’t cover damage caused by external events like hail, wind, or heavy rain. Those types of losses usually fall under your homeowner’s insurance as a covered peril.

At Red Diamond Roofing, we help homeowners navigate both warranty and insurance claim processes—working directly with insurance adjusters and warranty representatives to ensure you get the full coverage you deserve. Learn how to protect your investment and restore your roof with confidence after storm damage.

Frequently Asked Questions About Storm Damage

Successful insurance claims require thorough documentation from the moment you discover storm damage. Start by photographing all visible damage to your roof, siding, gutters, and surrounding property as soon as possible after the storm. Document the date and details of the weather event, including hail size, wind speeds, and any weather service reports. Contact Red Diamond Roofing for a professional inspection—we’ll provide detailed reports with measurements, photos, and expert assessments that insurance adjusters respect. Keep records of all communication with your insurance company, including claim numbers, adjuster names, and dates of conversations. Save any contractor estimates and never authorize repairs before your insurance company approves your claim. Our team assists with every documentation step, ensuring your claim includes all necessary information for maximum coverage approval.

Filing an insurance claim for storm damage typically makes financial sense when repair costs exceed your deductible, but several factors influence this decision. Consider the extent of damage, your roof’s age, and your deductible amount. If storm damage compromises your roof’s integrity or creates immediate leak risks, filing a claim protects your home from escalating problems. Red Diamond Roofing provides free inspections to assess damage and help you make informed decisions. We’ll compare repair costs against your deductible and explain potential long-term consequences of delaying repairs. Keep in mind that multiple small claims can impact your premiums, but legitimate storm damage claims generally don’t affect your rates the way at-fault claims do. We provide insurance expertise to help you navigate the claims process and work directly with your adjuster to secure a fair settlement that covers all necessary, high-quality repairs.

Some storm damage is visible from ground level, such as missing shingles, dented gutters, or debris on your roof, but much of it remains hidden to untrained eyes. Hail damage often appears as subtle bruising or granule loss that’s only identifiable during a close roof inspection. Wind damage may lift shingles without completely removing them, creating vulnerabilities you can’t see from below. Red Diamond Roofing offers free professional inspections that include a close examination of your entire roofing system. We identify all damage, visible and hidden, ensuring nothing gets missed that could lead to future problems.

Storm damage occurs suddenly from specific weather events like hail, wind, or fallen debris, while normal wear develops gradually over years of exposure. Storm damage typically shows random patterns—shingles missing in scattered locations, dents without uniform distribution, or damage concentrated on one roof section based on storm direction. Normal wear appears as uniform deterioration across your entire roof, including consistent granule loss, curling edges, or brittleness from age. Insurance covers sudden storm damage but not gradual wear from aging. Red Diamond Roofing’s experienced inspectors can distinguish between the two, providing documentation that clearly identifies storm-related damage for your insurance claim.

Hail damage appears differently depending on your roofing material, impact force, and hail size. On asphalt shingles, look for random dents with exposed substrate, missing granules in concentrated areas, or shiny spots where impacts occurred. Hail also damages roof penetrations, flashing, gutters, and vents. However, significant hail damage can exist without obvious signs visible from the ground. Professional inspection remains the only reliable way to identify all hail impacts and document them properly for insurance claims. Red Diamond Roofing’s certified inspectors are trained to recognize even subtle hail damage patterns that insurance adjusters look for during claim evaluations.
