What does “Where others see a roof, we see the entire claim” mean?
It means RAFTRx looks beyond the shingles. We inspect the roof and the surrounding property so homeowners get a clearer picture of the total storm damage evidence.
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.
What roofing materials are common in Oklahoma?

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.

Should I get a roof inspection in Waurika after hail?
Yes. If hail passed through Waurika, 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.
Is a roof estimate the same as an insurance claim estimate?
No. A contractor estimate explains repair or replacement scope and cost. An insurance estimate is issued by the insurance company or adjuster under your policy terms.
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.
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 does RAFTRx document during a storm inspection?

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.
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.

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 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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
