What does RAFTRx document during a storm inspection?
We document roof concerns, visible hail or wind indicators, collateral damage, photos, notes, and homeowner concerns so the inspection is organized and easier to understand.
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.
Can a roof inspection include attic signs?
If attic access is available and safe, checking for water stains, daylight, wet insulation, or ventilation issues can help understand leak sources.
Can you inspect my roof if another roofer already looked at it?
Yes. A second opinion is common, especially if the first roofer only inspected the roof and did not document gutters, garage doors, downspouts, vents, and other collateral damage.
Do you check gutters during a storm damage inspection?
Gutters, downspouts, and soft metals can be reviewed for dents, separation, granule buildup, and water-flow issues that may relate to storm activity or roof wear.
Does hail damage always mean I need a full roof replacement?
Not always. Some roofs need repair, some need monitoring, and some may justify replacement depending on the amount, location, age, and severity of damage.
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.
Should I file a claim before getting a roof inspection?
Many homeowners prefer to get an inspection first so they better understand whether there are visible storm indicators. RAFTRx can inspect and explain what was found before you decide next steps.
What areas do you inspect besides shingles?
We may check gutters, downspouts, garage doors, roof vents, flashing, metal trim, window screens, siding, fencing, exterior paint, and other visible areas that may show hail or wind damage.
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.
Why inspect screens and siding during a roof inspection?
Screens and siding can show storm impact, tears, chips, dents, or wind-related damage. Those details may support a whole-property storm review.
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 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.
What makes RAFTRx different from a regular roofing company?
RAFTRx combines roofing inspection with an insurance-focused documentation mindset. We look for storm evidence across the entire property, not just on the roof.
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.
Can downspouts show hail damage?
Yes. Downspouts often show dents from hail impact, especially on exposed sides of the property. RAFTRx checks them during collateral damage inspections.
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 are common signs of roof damage after an Oklahoma storm?

Availability may depend on schedule and location. RAFTRx can discuss inspection findings with you and help organize documentation before or after an adjuster visit.
Can you give me documentation to show my insurance company?
RAFTRx can provide inspection findings, photos, notes, and roofing recommendations. The exact format may vary by inspection, and insurance decisions remain with the carrier.
What if only one side of my roof was hit?
Hail and wind can affect slopes differently. The inspection can review individual slopes, directional exposure, and areas that took the most impact.
Should I wait for another storm before checking my roof?
No. Waiting can allow minor issues to become bigger leaks. If you suspect roof damage now, it is better to request an inspection and understand the condition.
Can RAFTRx help with a roof estimate in Norman?

Do you guarantee my insurance will pay for a new roof?
No. No roofer should guarantee an insurance outcome. RAFTRx focuses on careful inspection, honest guidance, and better documentation.
