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.
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 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.

Can RAFTRx help after an underpaid roof claim?
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.

What if I see a ceiling stain but no roof damage?
A ceiling stain can come from roof leaks, plumbing, HVAC, condensation, or flashing issues. A roof inspection helps rule in or rule out roof-related causes.
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.
Can hail damage show up later?
Some issues become more visible over time as granules loosen, bruised areas age, or water begins entering weakened spots. That is why post-storm review is useful.
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.
How soon after a storm should collateral damage be documented?
Sooner is better. Early documentation helps capture visible damage before repairs, additional storms, oxidation, or normal wear make the evidence harder to interpret.
What is collateral damage after a hail storm?
Collateral damage is storm damage outside the roof itself, such as dents on gutters, garage doors, downspouts, metal vents, screens, siding, trim, fencing, or other exposed exterior areas.
Are you public adjusters?
