What we look for after a GTA storm event
Southern Ontario storms bring a mix of high wind, hail, and heavy rain, sometimes in the same event. Damage isn't always obvious from the ground, and insurers expect specific documentation before approving a claim. We assess with that process in mind from the start.
Wind-lifted shingles versus wind-damaged shingles
Some shingles reseal after being lifted, others crack the seal permanently. We check for the difference rather than assuming any lifted shingle needs replacing.
Hail bruising isn't always visible from the ground
Granule loss and mat bruising from hail impact often requires a roof walk to assess properly, especially on darker shingles where marks are harder to spot from below.
Gutter and downspout damage often gets missed
Hail dents to gutters are a common and often overlooked casualty of the same storm that damaged the roof.
Flashing and vent damage from wind uplift
High wind events can loosen or bend flashing and roof vents even when shingles look intact.
The rushed assessment that costs you at claim time
After a storm, some contractors rush through GTA neighbourhoods with a quick look and a generic damage report designed to get a signature fast. Insurers often push back on vague documentation, which delays your claim or gets it denied outright.
Documentation built for the claims process
We photograph and document damage the way adjusters expect: specific locations, close-up shots of granule loss or bruising, and a written assessment you can hand directly to your insurance company. If we don't find storm-related damage, we tell you that too.

Storm & hail damage repair FAQs
Can you help with my insurance claim?
We provide thorough photo documentation and a written assessment you can submit to your insurer. We're not a public adjuster, but our documentation is built with the claims process in mind.
How soon after a storm should I get an inspection?
Sooner is better, since further weather can worsen existing damage or make it harder to distinguish from new wear.
What if there's no visible damage from the ground?
That's common with hail bruising and wind-lifted shingles. A proper assessment involves getting on the roof, not just looking up from the yard.
Do you check gutters after a storm too?
Yes, hail and wind damage to gutters and downspouts often happens alongside roof damage.
