Why are granules in my gutters important?
Granule loss can expose shingles to faster aging and may indicate hail impact, old shingles, or storm wear. It is one clue that should be reviewed with the overall roof condition.
Is a free roof inspection really free?
The inspection request is free and no-obligation. Any repair or replacement work would be discussed separately after the roof condition and scope are reviewed.
What happens after I submit the inspection form?
RAFTRx will review your request, contact you about the property and roof concern, and help determine the best next step for inspection, repair, documentation, or estimate.
What does RAFTRx mean by whole-property storm damage documentation?
It means we inspect more than just the roof. We also look for visible storm indicators on gutters, downspouts, garage doors, vents, screens, siding, soft metals, fencing, and other exterior surfaces.
Are you public adjusters?
No. RAFTRx is a roofing company, not a public adjuster. We document visible roof and property damage and help homeowners understand the inspection findings and next steps.
Why does RAFTRx say the storm hit more than your roof?
Because hail and wind often leave signs across the property. Gutters, garage doors, downspouts, screens, vents, and soft metals may show visible evidence even when roof damage is harder to understand.
Can hail damage show up on garage doors?
Yes. Metal garage doors can show dents or impact marks from hail. Those marks may be part of the property-wide documentation after a storm.
Can I submit photos before scheduling?
Yes. Photos of roof damage, ceiling stains, gutters, shingles, and storm evidence can help RAFTRx understand your concern before the inspection.
Do you answer questions before I book?
Yes. Use the form to describe your concern and RAFTRx can follow up about the best inspection or estimate option for your roof.
What if my neighbors got approved but I was denied?
That can be a reason to request a second opinion. RAFTRx can inspect your property for visible roof and collateral damage to help you understand whether important evidence was missed.
What should I do if I see missing shingles?
Request a roof inspection soon. Missing shingles can expose underlayment and decking, allowing water intrusion during the next rain.
How do I know if I need repair or replacement?
That depends on roof age, damage amount, leak history, shingle condition, ventilation, decking condition, and whether problems are isolated or widespread.
Do I need to be home for the inspection?
It depends on the property and inspection type. Exterior-only reviews may be simpler, but interior leaks, attic concerns, locked gates, and pets may require access or coordination.
Should I get a roof inspection in Cement after hail?
Yes. If hail passed through Cement, a roof inspection can help document bruised shingles, granule loss, soft metal dents, lifted tabs, damaged vents, and other visible storm indicators before small issues become leaks.
Can a roof inspection help when selling a home?
Yes. A pre-listing roof inspection can help identify repair issues, storm concerns, or replacement questions before they become negotiation problems.
Will RAFTRx meet with my adjuster?
Availability may depend on schedule and location. RAFTRx can discuss inspection findings with you and help organize documentation before or after an adjuster visit.
How do I prepare for a roof inspection?
Clear driveway access, secure pets, share leak locations, gather storm dates if known, and make sure someone is available if interior areas need to be shown.
What phrase best explains the RAFTRx inspection approach?
A simple way to say it is: roofers look up; we look everywhere. RAFTRx inspects the roof and the surrounding property for overlooked storm evidence.
What should I do if my roof claim was denied?
Start by reviewing what was inspected and what was documented. If the first review only focused on shingles, a second opinion may help check for collateral damage and other overlooked storm indicators.
Can RAFTRx help with a roof estimate in Cement?
Yes. RAFTRx can review the roof condition, damage concerns, repair scope, and replacement questions so you can get a clearer idea of the next step for your Cement home.
Can wind damage shingles even if there was no hail?
Yes. High winds can lift, crease, loosen, or remove shingles. Wind can also expose nails, open seams, and create areas where water can enter later.
What are common signs of roof damage after an Oklahoma storm?
Common signs include missing shingles, lifted shingles, creased tabs, granule piles, dented gutters, damaged vents, cracked pipe boots, ceiling stains, and new leaks after rain.
Can roof damage affect home value?
Yes. Unresolved leaks, missing shingles, visible storm damage, and old roofing can affect buyer confidence, repair negotiations, and long-term property condition.
What is cleanup business in roofing?
