Storm Damage Roof Repair and Roof Replacement in Indianapolis

Indy Rooftops handles both storm damage roof repair and storm damage roof replacements across Indianapolis. Some storms leave a few lifted shingles and a small leak, while others tear straight through the structure and end the roof’s life. 

We’ll inspect the damage, walk you through what we found, and give you a straight answer on the right fix – a targeted repair when that’s enough, or a full replacement when the roof has had its last good storm.

Signs of Hail and Wind Damage on Your Roof

Central Indiana sits inside the Midwest hail belt, and Indianapolis homes regularly deal with severe thunderstorms, high winds, and occasional tornadoes. 

Storm damage, especially damage to the roof, isn’t always visible from the ground. A professional inspection is the only way to know for sure. Here’s what our inspectors look for during a free roof inspection:

Roof Hail Damage Indicators Roof Wind Damage Indicators
Round, dark bruises where granules are knocked off shingles Missing, lifted, torn, or curled shingles, or shingles flapping up and down
Dents on metal vents, flashing, and gutters Nail pulls or creased shingles, which lead to continued deterioration
Split shingles Creased shingles with broken seals
Cracked shingles Torn underlayment or exposed nails
Soft, bruise-like spots on the shingle mat Debris impact and puncture damage
Granule piles in gutters and at downspout outlets Damage to ridge caps, hip lines, and chimney flashing

As a rough guide, quarter-sized hail (about an inch) or larger is usually enough to cause real roof damage. Once it gets to golf ball size (around 1.75 inches), you’ll almost always want a full inspection. For more on what to check for after a hailstorm, see our guide to dealing with hail damage in Indianapolis.

Our team can provide a repairability assessment to ensure further damage isn’t caused during the repair process, as well as a compatibility assessment to ensure repairs meet local building codes and manufacturer specifications.

What to Do in the First 24 Hours After a Storm

  1. Stay off the roof – inspect from the ground only. If there’s debris or damaged areas, climbing on the roof could be dangerous.
  2. Photograph visible damage to the roof, siding, gutters, windows, and any interior ceilings or walls.
  3. Check inside for leaks. Place buckets and move furniture or valuables away from affected areas.
  4. Call Indy Rooftops at (317) 525-5334 for emergency roof tarping. This will provide temporary protection for the roof before a full repair or replacement can be scheduled
  5. Contact your insurance provider to open a claim.
  6. Save receipts for temporary repairs, hotel stays, or materials – most can be reimbursable under your storm damage insurance policy.

Storm Damage Insurance Claim Assistance

Most roof storm damage claims in Indianapolis are covered by standard homeowner’s policies. However, the insurance process can be complicated. We’ll help you file and manage the whole claim – meeting the insurance adjuster on site, supplying documentation, and making sure the approved scope of work matches what the roof actually needs. Usually that means less back-and-forth with the insurer and a repair that doesn’t get shortchanged.

Frequently Asked Questions

We offer 7-days a week emergency services and typically have a tarping crew on site within 24 hours.

Call us first if you see visible damage or interior leaks. We can inspect, document what we find, and get you the information you need before you open the claim. That usually makes for a cleaner filing and fewer surprises once the adjuster shows up.

Most standard Indianapolis homeowners policies cover sudden damage from hail, wind, and falling debris. General wear-and-tear and pre-existing damage are typically excluded. Please note that your adjuster makes the final call on coverage.

Yes, both. If the damage is isolated, a roof repair is usually the right call. If it’s widespread or the roof is already aging, we’ll recommend a full roof replacement. Wind-damaged shingles can often be replaced without needing a full roof replacement.

In either event, your inspection report lays out the options so you can make the call.

Emergency tarping is same-day. Once a claim is approved, simple repairs usually wrap up within a week but can take a little bit of time to get situated on the schedule. A standard asphalt shingle roof replacement takes one to two days on site once materials arrive – longer for bigger homes or steep, complicated roofs.

Yes. We carry full business insurance and we’re Pella Pro Certified, a Malarkey Premium Contractor, and an IKO Craftsman Premier Contractor. Ask and we’ll send our certificate of insurance over.
