Roof Damaged by a Storm?
We're On Our Way.

Northwest Arkansas sees some of the worst hail and wind in the country. When your roof takes a hit, you need a contractor who answers the phone, shows up fast, and knows how to work with your insurance company. That's us.

What to Do Right After Storm Damage

Don't climb on your roof. Follow these steps to protect yourself and your claim.

1. Stay Safe

Don't go on the roof. If water is coming in, place buckets and move valuables away from the leak.

2. Document Everything

Take photos and videos of damage from the ground. Include damaged siding, gutters, windows, and yard debris.

3. Contact Your Insurance

File a claim as soon as possible. Note your claim number, adjuster name, and expected timeline.

4. Call Ridge Line

We'll schedule a free inspection within 24 hours. We meet with your adjuster and handle the documentation.

5. Emergency Tarping

If needed, we can tarp your roof the same day to prevent further water damage until full repairs begin.

6. Repair Timeline

Most storm repairs are completed within 1–2 weeks of insurance approval. We keep you updated every step.

Types of Storm Damage We Repair

Hail Damage

Hail is the #1 cause of roof damage in NWA. Even marble-sized hail can crack shingles, expose the underlayment, and lead to leaks within months. We document every impact point for your insurance claim.

Warning signs:

  • Dented gutters or downspouts
  • Circular cracking on shingles
  • Missing granules (dark spots)
  • Dents in metal flashing or vents

Wind Damage

Straight-line winds and tornadic activity can lift, crease, or completely remove shingles. Wind damage often starts at edges and ridges — the areas most exposed to uplift forces.

Warning signs:

  • Missing or lifted shingles
  • Exposed underlayment or decking
  • Ridge cap damage
  • Debris impact marks

Fallen Tree & Debris Damage

Branches and trees can puncture the roof deck, crush the structure, or drag shingles off on their way down. These situations often require emergency tarping and structural assessment.

Warning signs:

  • Visible holes or punctures
  • Sagging roof sections
  • Broken rafters or trusses
  • Interior water intrusion

Water & Leak Damage

Sometimes the damage isn't obvious from outside. Water finds its way through compromised flashing, cracked pipe boots, or damaged valleys — and by the time you see a ceiling stain, it's been leaking for a while.

Warning signs:

  • Ceiling stains or bubbling paint
  • Musty odor in attic
  • Wet insulation
  • Mold growth on decking
