Missing shingles after a wind storm?
What to do next for storm and hail damage roof repair in Harrison, OH.
You walked outside after the storm and saw shingles in the yard. The roof looks bare in spots. You're not sure if it's still watertight. Harrison gets strong winds off I-74 and open farm fields near Boss Bison Ranch, and your roof takes the hit.
Missing shingles mean the wind got under the edges and tore them off. Sometimes hail loosened them first. Either way, the roof's protective layer is broken. Exposed underlayment or bare wood lets water in. Small leaks start slow, then rot the decking.
A repair for a few missing shingles usually takes a few hours and costs a few hundred dollars. If the roof is older or many shingles are gone, a full replacement might be needed. The price depends on the roof size, pitch, and how many layers are under the shingles. Insurance often covers wind damage, but you need photos and a detailed report.
Do not climb on the roof. Take clear photos from the ground, including the bare spots and shingles in the yard. Then call TruRoof. We inspect the whole roof, not just the missing shingles. Hidden damage from hail or lifted edges shows up later. We document everything for your insurance claim and give you a straight answer: repair or replace.
Once the roof is fixed, you stop worrying every time it rains. The shingles match, the edges are sealed, and the roof is watertight again. No more tarps or buckets. Just a roof that does its job.
What people in Harrison say
"I'm reviewing my two new roofs, on my house and my garage, installed by TruRoof. The company, and Damon Chuke, their representative, helped me work with the insurance company, and with understanding all the details of the whole process. They took out an obsolete chimney, were on time and professional, and the finished roofs and flashing are beautiful. Many compliments from neighbors. Highly recommended by me."
"We have a beautiful condo in a historic building from the 1840s. Late November had a bad leak in the dining room area. I called Britt at TruRoof who came out and inspected the entire roof of the building. He said to do the entire roof could be around $50,000. But then he started laughing and said you need to caulk the area around one of the chimneys. I thought he was nuts, but I did the caulking, which cost me about 25 bucks worth of outdoor caulk, and there are no more leaks. I cannot express my appreciation for his diligence and his honesty. That kind of a company and a person is rare these days. Highly, highly, highly recommend these guys."
"TruRoof did an outstanding job from start to finish. Communication leading up to the start date was great. Once on site and the project started, everything went as discussed, and the crew was very professional."
