Get a fast, documented storm damage inspection and find out if your damage qualifies for insurance — without the runaround.
After a storm, every homeowner naturally becomes concerned about their roof. Questions like these are common: Did the storm damage my roof? How much damage occurred? Can it be repaired, or will the roof need to be replaced? Should I inspect it myself?
As a roofing expert in Oklahoma, I would suggest that homeowners do a basic visual inspection from a safe place, such as the ground. Look for missing or lifted shingles, damaged flashing, dents, fallen debris, or other visible signs of damage.
For a proper inspection, contact a professional roofing company or local roofer who can safely assess the roof, document the damage, and explain whether repair or replacement may be appropriate. Hiner Roofing provides a free storm damage roof inspection in Oklahoma City to help homeowners understand the condition of their roof after hail, wind, or severe weather.
What will happen if you ignore the roof inspection after storm damage
👉 Insurance doesn’t always point everything out. That’s our job.
A roof inspection after a hail storm helps determine whether the roofing system was actually affected. Hail marks may be visible on gutters, vents, downspouts, and other metal surfaces, while shingle damage can be harder to identify from the ground.
Hiner Roofing inspects the shingles, ridge caps, valleys, flashing, vents, roof edges, and other roofing components and documents what we find with photos.
What could’ve been fully covered becomes entirely your responsibility the longer you wait.
When storm damage is widespread and roof replacement is recommended, Hiner Roofing can replace the damaged roofing system from tear-off through final cleanup.
Our storm damage roof replacement services include removing the existing roofing, checking the exposed roof deck, installing the specified underlayment and roofing materials, addressing flashing and ventilation where included in the scope, cleaning the property, and completing a final walkthrough.

Hail Damage Signs
Most hail damage is not visible from street level. What your eyes can’t spot, our trained inspectors find on every slope: impact bruising on shingles (soft spots where the asphalt mat has been compressed), granule displacement leaving bare, darkened areas, cracked or split shingles from large hailstone impacts, dented or punctured ridge caps, and pockmarked metal components (gutters, downspouts, fascia, AC units) that confirm a hail event occurred.
Oklahoma hail size reference: Pea (¼”) = surface stress. Marble (½”) = granule loss begins. Quarter (1″) = functional shingle damage likely. Golf ball (1¾”) = significant multi-area damage. Baseball (2¾”+) = structural damage probable across all planes.
Wind Damage Signs
Oklahoma wind events regularly exceed 60–90 mph — enough to break the factory sealant on asphalt shingles and lift tab edges. Visible signs include missing shingles, visibly lifted tabs at eaves or rakes, shingles with exposed fasteners from blow-off, and creased or cracked shingles along ridge lines. Less visible: broken sealant strips that let wind-driven rain penetrate without the shingle actually lifting off the roof.
Roof Leaks After Storms
Water stains appearing on ceilings or attic insulation within days or weeks of a storm are a reliable indicator of storm damage — but the entry point is rarely where the stain appears. Water travels along rafters, decking, and insulation before dripping. Our storm damage specialists trace every post-storm leak to its actual source, not just its visible symptom.
Hidden Storm Damage — What Gets Missed Without Professional Inspection
The most dangerous storm damage is what you can’t see: separation at step and counter flashing around chimneys and dormers; cracked pipe boots; compromised underlayment at valleys where debris impact has torn the waterproofing layer; and structural decking damage from large hail or debris strikes. These findings require hands-on, close-range inspection — not a visual scan from the driveway.
In most cases, yes — if it’s documented correctly. Oklahoma homeowners insurance policies typically cover wind and hail damage under the storm peril clause. What determines whether your claim gets approved:
| Coverage Factor | What It Means | How We Help |
|---|---|---|
|
Verifiable Storm Event |
A documented hail or wind event at your specific address on a specific date |
We cross-reference your address with NOAA storm records and include this verification in your report |
|
Functional Damage |
Damage must affect the roof’s ability to shed water — not just its appearance |
We distinguish and document functional vs. cosmetic damage with precision |
|
Roof Age & Policy Terms |
ACV (actual cash value) may apply to older roofs; RCV (replacement cost value) for newer |
We review your situation and help you understand your policy’s depreciation terms |
|
Filing Timeline |
Most Oklahoma policies allow 1–2 years from the storm date to file |
We advise on urgency based on your specific storm date and coverage terms |
|
Documentation Quality |
Undocumented or poorly documented claims are frequently denied or underpaid |
We provide a complete insurance-ready inspection report at no charge to you |
If you have an active leak or visible structural damage after a storm, time matters. Here’s what to do while you wait for our emergency team:
Emergency tarping is a temporary protective measure that prevents additional water intrusion while permanent repairs are planned and scheduled. It's a legitimate, insurance-billable service that protects your home and your claim. If active damage is creating immediate risk, we'll arrange tarping on our emergency response visit.
Choosing a storm damage roof replacement company is different from hiring someone simply because they knocked on your door after a storm. Homeowners should know who is inspecting the roof, what will be installed, what the written scope includes, and who will stand behind the finished work.
Most storm damage — especially hail impact — isn’t visible from the ground. Granule accumulation in gutters after a hail event is the most accessible indicator. Beyond that, the most reliable method is a professional inspection by an experienced storm damage roofing specialist. Hiner Roofing provides free storm damage inspections across the OKC metro — schedule one and know for certain.
In most cases, yes — Oklahoma homeowners insurance policies include wind and hail coverage under the storm peril clause. Coverage approval depends on storm event verification, damage severity (functional vs. cosmetic), roof age, and documentation quality. Properly documented claims are approved at a significantly higher rate than undocumented ones.
Immediately — or as soon as safely possible. Every day of delay means more potential for secondary damage (water intrusion, mold, wood rot) and less time within your insurance claim window. Most Oklahoma policies allow 1–2 years from the storm date to file, but acting within 30–60 days is strongly advisable.
Proper documentation makes all the difference at the denial stage. If your initial claim was filed without professional documentation and gets denied, a detailed independent inspection report — with photo evidence, NOAA storm verification, and a written functional damage assessment — can support an appeal. Contact us before accepting a denial as final.
Yes. In Oklahoma, you are legally entitled to choose your own roofing contractor for insurance-covered storm repairs. Your insurer cannot require you to use a contractor from their preferred list. Hiner Roofing will work directly with your insurance company on your behalf throughout the repair process.
A storm restoration roofing company specializes in the full process: professional damage documentation, insurance adjuster coordination, claim filing support, and repairs that meet insurer requirements and manufacturer warranty standards. A general roofer handles repairs but may lack the insurance claim expertise needed to maximize your coverage.
Most OKC residential hail damage repairs take 1–3 days from start to finish once materials arrive. Full replacements are typically completed in 1–2 installation days. We’ll give you a specific timeline after your inspection.
Hiner Roofing’s free storm damage inspection gives you exactly what the name says. No obligation to move forward with repairs. No inflated damage estimate designed to manufacture a claim. No sales pressure.
You get one thing: the honest truth about what the storm did to your roof — documented with photos and video, explained in plain language, and backed by NOAA storm data.
The inspection is free. The photo and video documentation is free. The NOAA storm data verification is free. The insurance guidance session is free. The complete inspection report is free. You only pay if you move forward with repair or replacement work — and that payment typically comes from your insurance company, not your pocket.

After a major hail or wind event across the OKC metro, our inspection schedule fills within 24–72 hours. We limit assessments each week deliberately — a rushed inspection misses the details that determine whether your claim gets approved or denied. The sooner you call, the sooner you get real answers and the more options you have.
Time matters for a second reason: Oklahoma insurance policies have finite claim windows. Most require filing within 1–2 years of the storm date. Every week you wait is a week closer to losing your right to covered repairs — and a week of additional secondary damage accumulating inside your home.
