What to Do in the First 24 Hours

Storm damage is time-sensitive — water intrusion gets worse every hour a breach is exposed, and most insurance policies set a claim-filing window that starts the day the damage occurred. This page covers Naperville-specific storm repair; for the full range of wind, hail, and impact issues we handle, see our storm damage roofing overview.

Emergency Tarping

If wind or a fallen branch has opened up your roof deck, we can install an emergency tarp to stop active water intrusion while the full repair or replacement is scoped and scheduled.

Documented Inspection

We photograph and document every affected area — shingles, flashing, decking, gutters — creating the record your insurance claim needs from day one.

Claim Timeline Matters

Most Illinois homeowner policies require damage to be reported within a defined window after the storm. Filing promptly, with documentation in hand, avoids disputes over whether the damage is storm-related.

Honest Numbers

What Storm Repair Actually Costs

Not every storm-damaged roof needs full replacement. Scope depends entirely on the extent of the damage — here's the honest range.

Targeted Repairs
A Few Hundred – A Few Thousand

Isolated wind or hail damage — missing shingles, a damaged flashing run, a section of exposed decking — typically falls in this range. Exact cost depends entirely on scope, which is why we quote after a real inspection, not over the phone.

Full Replacement
$12,000 – $17,500

Installed cost for a standard architectural shingle replacement on a 24-square Naperville colonial. This is the range we most often see when hail has compromised the whole field of shingles, not just a section. Full breakdown on our cost guide.

If you're insured on a replacement cost value (RCV) policy, most of this is typically covered beyond your deductible. See our ACV vs. RCV guide to understand which payout structure applies to your policy before you file.

Why Homeowners Choose Us

Storm Repair Done Right, Not Just Fast

GAF Master Elite

Held by fewer than 3% of roofing contractors nationally. It means factory-backed training and stronger warranty options are available on every storm repair or replacement we do.

No Subcontractors

Every crew on your roof is our own employee, not a subcontracted outfit we've never worked with. That means consistent workmanship and one accountable point of contact throughout the claim.

Direct Adjuster Meetings

We meet your insurance adjuster on-site to walk the damage together, so the approved scope matches what the roof actually needs — not a guess made from a desk. See our insurance claim assistance process.

The Process

From Storm to Finished Roof

1

Free Inspection & Tarping if Needed

We assess roof deck, shingles, flashing, and gutters, and tarp any active leak points same-visit.

2

Documentation & Insurance Filing

Photo-documented damage report you can attach directly to your claim, filed within your policy's reporting window.

3

On-Site Adjuster Meeting

We walk the roof with your adjuster in person to make sure the approved scope reflects the real damage.

4

Repair or Replacement

For a full tear-off, decking is inspected and replaced where compromised, and new ice-and-water shield and synthetic underlayment go down before shingles — the same system used on every full replacement we do.

Common Situations

Which One Sounds Like Your Roof?

Hail Bruising Across the Field

Widespread hail hits often mean the whole shingle field needs replacing, even if visible damage looks scattered. See our hail damage roof page for what to look for.

Wind-Lifted or Missing Shingles

Straight-line wind gusts can lift or tear shingles loose in a defined section, exposing underlayment or decking underneath.

Fallen Limb or Debris Impact

A direct impact can puncture decking, not just shingles. This is the scenario most likely to need emergency tarping the same day. See what to do after a storm for immediate steps.

FAQ

Common Questions

How fast can you respond after a storm?
We prioritize storm-damage inspections and typically get out within the same week, often sooner during active storm response periods. If you have active water intrusion, mention that when you call — emergency tarping is available to stop the leak while the full repair is scheduled.
Will my insurance actually cover this?
Most homeowners policies cover sudden storm damage — wind and hail are standard covered perils. Whether you get a full replacement or repair-only payout, and whether depreciation is recoverable, depends on your specific policy and coverage type. See our ACV vs. RCV guide for how that payout math works.
Do you work directly with my insurance adjuster?
Yes. We meet the adjuster on-site to walk the roof together so the approved scope of work reflects the actual documented damage, not a desk estimate. Full detail on our insurance claim assistance page.
What if only part of my roof is damaged — do I need a full replacement?
Not always. Isolated damage to a section can often be repaired rather than replaced. We scope based on the actual extent of the damage during inspection, not a blanket assumption either way.
Is a permit required for storm repair in Naperville?
Standard asphalt shingle re-roofing on existing sheathing is generally permit-exempt in Naperville; permits are typically required for other roofing materials or when decking/sheathing is being replaced. We handle any required permitting as part of the project.
How is this different from a routine roof replacement?
The core installation work is the same, but storm repair adds time-sensitive steps: emergency tarping if needed, documented damage assessment for your insurance claim, and an on-site adjuster meeting to confirm scope before work begins. See our general replacement cost guide for baseline pricing.
