How long does a roof inspection usually take?
Many roof inspections are fairly quick, but timing depends on roof size, slope, access, damage concerns, and whether interior leak areas also need to be reviewed.
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 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 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 roofing materials are common in Oklahoma?

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 roof damage be hard to see from the ground?
Yes. Hail bruising, lifted tabs, cracked seals, flashing problems, and soft metal damage may not be obvious from the yard. A closer inspection is often needed.
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.
What should I send RAFTRx before a second-opinion inspection?

Should I get a roof inspection in Perkins after hail?

Yes. Small leaks can damage decking, insulation, drywall, paint, electrical areas, and interior finishes if they are not addressed.

RAFTRx can review visible damage and documentation gaps so you better understand what may have been missed. We do not control supplement or claim outcomes, but better documentation can help clarify the conversation.

They may have missed subtle roof indicators, inspected the wrong slopes, or skipped collateral damage. A second opinion can help verify whether the original inspection was complete.
Are roof inspections useful before storm season?
Yes. A pre-season check can find weak spots, missing shingles, exposed fasteners, old pipe boots, and maintenance items before severe weather arrives.
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.
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.
Can RAFTRx reopen my denied insurance claim?
RAFTRx does not control insurance claim decisions and does not guarantee reopening or approval. We can inspect the property, document visible storm evidence, and help you understand what may have been missed.
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.
What is cleanup business in roofing?
In roofing, cleanup business often refers to prior denied, underpaid, or poorly documented claims where another contractor did not capture enough evidence. RAFTRx helps by taking a more complete look.
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.
