Insurance adjuster coming for hail damage? Don't settle for a patch.
TruRoof, storm and hail damage roof repair in Newport, KY. We'll document the damage and meet your adjuster so you get a full roof.
When hail storms roll through the Ohio River valley, Newport roofs take a beating—especially older homes near the levee or in the East Row historic district. You have visible damage, the adjuster is coming, and you're afraid they'll only approve a small patch. You need a roofer who can document the full extent of the damage.
Hail hits shingles hard, leaving dents, bruises, and missing granules. You might see dark spots or cracks from the ground. In Newport, where spring storms sweep up the Ohio River, hailstones can crack shingles or dent metal flashing. In older neighborhoods like Mansion Hill or the East Row, steep roofs and historic materials hide damage that an adjuster might overlook. They may only note surface dents and ignore cracked underlayment or bent flashing that will leak later.
A full roof replacement after hail damage in Newport typically costs $8,000 to $15,000, depending on roof size, pitch, and number of layers. A simple ranch near I-275 will be on the lower end, while a two-story Victorian with complex valleys can run higher. Insurance should cover this if the damage meets your policy's hail coverage. Without proper documentation, the adjuster might only approve a patch job for a few thousand dollars, leaving you with hidden leaks.
Your next move is to get a roofer who knows insurance claims before the adjuster arrives. TruRoof offers free storm damage inspections across Newport and Campbell County. We'll document every hail hit—bruises, cracks, granule loss—and meet the adjuster on your roof. We'll show them the full extent of the damage, not just what's visible from the ladder. Don't let the adjuster inspect alone; once they file a report, getting a full replacement becomes harder. Call TruRoof today to schedule your inspection.
Once the claim is approved, TruRoof installs a new roof built for Ohio River valley weather. You get a warranty that lasts decades, no more leaks, and peace of mind when the next storm rolls through. You didn't have to fight the insurance company alone, and your Newport home is protected.
What people in Newport 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."

Do not climb on the roof. Take photos from the ground. Call a roofing company that handles storm damage. They will check for hidden damage and help you decide if you need a repair or a full replacement.

You can replace a single shingle if you have the right nails, sealant, and ladder safety gear. But if you break the seal on nearby shingles or nail in the wrong spot, you create a bigger leak. For anything more than one or two shingles, call a roofer.
