Storm damage to a roof in Skiatook, OK
Did the hail do anything up there, or did it just make noise? Hail cracks the fiberglass under the surface and strips the granules above it, none of which has to leak to be real. Wind works the same way: the roof that loses shingles and the one next door that looks untouched went through the same night. Ask Osage Trail Roofing, and our roofer reads the slope from up on it.

No leak yet is not the same as no damage. Wind breaks the seal at the rakes and the ridge and leaves tabs sitting loose that still look flat from the driveway, so a free look soon after a storm is worth it.

Damage visible from the ground up
These are the ones a Skiatook homeowner can check from the yard without a ladder, and what each one usually means underneath. None of them settles it alone, and that's why you want the slopes walked before anybody prices a repair.
Grit at the downspout
Those granules are the shingle's sunscreen, and hail knocks them loose in patches. Bare asphalt sitting out in an Oklahoma summer won't last as long as the roof around it.
Dimpled vents and gutters
Soft metal takes a hail strike and keeps it, so the dents on your vents and gutter faces record the stone size that came through. Shingles on the same roof caught those stones too, and they don't show it the same way.
Tabs standing proud
Look along the rakes and the ridge for shingles sitting up off the course instead of lying flat. Once the seal underneath has let go, that tab lifts again in the next blow, and it doesn't have to look damaged today.
Marks on the AC fins
Bent fins on the outdoor unit and fresh dings in a wood rail tell you what size hail reached the house. The roof met the same stones at a worse angle, and it's the surface that has to keep water out.
Pieces in the flower beds
Wind rarely takes one tab and stops, so a shingle fragment in the beds usually means a course up top is short. Where a tab's gone, the nail heads that held it are open to the next rain.
Dings on the screens
Hail that marked your window screens and pocked the paint on one wall came in at an angle. The slope facing that direction took the worst of it, and that's where a look starts.
What the week after a storm should look like
The first moves after hail belong to you and the rest belong to the roofer, and knowing the split keeps you from waiting on the wrong person. None of it runs on a stopwatch, and the marks hail leaves don't fade while you decide.
From the ground first
You walk the yard, the drive and the beds and write down what you can see without a ladder, because the gutters and the soft metal hold the first evidence.
Ask for a look
You send what you found to Osage Trail Roofing, and our roofer sets a time to come out, since the bruising that decides a hail claim doesn't show itself from the ground.
Slope by slope
Our roofer goes up and works the roof one slope at a time, photographing the hits and the soft metal that a driveway view can't pick up.
The written scope
Our roofer writes the findings and the price out itemized at no charge, and you're the one who decides what happens with it.
