What is the fastest way to get started?
Use the form on this page, choose the service type that best matches your concern, and include notes about leaks, storm dates, missing shingles, hail, wind, or insurance questions.
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.
What if my roof is too steep or unsafe to walk?
Safety comes first. Depending on the roof, inspection may involve ground review, ladder access, drone/photo options, or another safe documentation method.
Can roof vents be damaged by hail?
Yes. Roof vents, turbine vents, box vents, pipe jacks, and other metal or plastic components can crack, dent, loosen, or leak after hail and wind.
Why is photo documentation important after a hail storm?
Photos help preserve visible evidence before repairs, more storms, or time make the condition harder to understand. Good documentation can also make conversations with your carrier more organized.
What is the difference between a roof inspection and a roof estimate?
A roof inspection focuses on condition and visible issues. A roof estimate focuses on projected repair or replacement scope and pricing after the roof has been reviewed.
Can a roof inspection help before filing an insurance claim?
A roof inspection can help you understand what is visible and document possible roof damage before deciding what to do next. It does not guarantee insurance approval, but it can help you make a more informed decision.
Why do some roofers miss storm damage evidence?
Some roofers focus almost entirely on shingles. RAFTRx looks at the roof and the surrounding property because the evidence is often beyond the roof.
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.
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 if I have damage to gutters and roof?
Gutters and roofing often need to be reviewed together after hail or wind because both can show storm impact and both affect water control around the home.
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.
Why does Oklahoma weather cause so many roofing issues?
Oklahoma roofs face hail, high winds, heavy rain, heat, UV exposure, and rapid weather changes, all of which can age or damage roofing systems.
Do former insurance agents make better roof inspectors?
Insurance background can help with documentation mindset. RAFTRx uses that perspective to look for the types of evidence, patterns, and property-wide details that are often important after a storm.
What if my insurance adjuster already inspected the roof?
You can still request a roofing review if you have questions, disagree with visible findings, or need help understanding the scope and repair options.
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.
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.
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.
Are soft metal dents important during hail inspections?
Dents on gutters, vents, flashing, and other soft metals can help confirm hail impact around the property, but the shingles and full roof system still need to be reviewed.
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.
How soon should I request a hail damage roof inspection in Konawa?
It is smart to request an inspection soon after the storm, especially if you see granules, missing shingles, dents on gutters, or new ceiling stains. Early documentation can help you understand the condition of the roof before more weather arrives.
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 RAFTRx inspect roof leaks in Konawa?
Yes. If you have a ceiling stain, active drip, wet insulation, or a recurring leak after rain, RAFTRx can help look for likely roof entry points.
Can collateral damage matter if the roof damage is borderline?
It can matter because property-wide evidence may help explain that a storm affected the home. RAFTRx checks those additional areas so important details are not missed.
