Fast Response When You Need It Most
Storm damage doesn't wait for business hours. When high winds rip shingles off your roof, when hail punches holes through your protective barrier, or when a tree branch crashes through during a severe storm, you need help right away. Every minute your roof stays damaged, water can pour into your home and cause thousands of dollars in additional damage.
That's why we offer 24/7 emergency roofing services to homeowners and businesses throughout Cicero, IL. When you call us with an emergency, we answer. We send a crew to your property as quickly as possible to assess the damage and make immediate repairs to stop water from getting in. Your safety and your property are our top priorities.
Common Types of Storm Damage We Handle
Illinois weather can be brutal. We see severe thunderstorms, heavy winds, hail, ice storms, and heavy snow all year long. Each type of weather brings its own roofing challenges. Our emergency response team has seen it all and knows exactly how to protect your Cicero property from further damage.
Here are the most common types of storm damage we respond to:
- Wind damage that tears off shingles or lifts sections of roofing material
- Hail damage that cracks, dents, or punctures shingles and flashing
- Tree damage from fallen branches or entire trees hitting your roof
- Ice dam damage that forces water under shingles and into your attic
- Lightning strikes that damage roof structures or start fires
- Heavy snow loads that cause roof sagging or collapse
- Flying debris damage from severe storms or tornadoes
No matter what type of damage you're dealing with, we respond quickly to stabilize the situation. We tarp exposed areas, remove dangerous debris, and make temporary repairs to keep you safe until we can complete permanent repairs.
What to Do When Storm Damage Happens
If your roof is damaged during a storm, your first priority is staying safe. Don't go on your roof to inspect damage yourself, especially during or right after a storm. High winds, wet surfaces, and hidden damage make roof climbing extremely dangerous.
Instead, call us right away. We'll ask you a few questions about what happened and what you can see from the ground. If you have water coming in, put buckets under the leaks and move valuables away from wet areas. Take photos of any visible damage if it's safe to do so. These photos help with insurance claims later.
When our crew arrives, we perform a thorough safety inspection and document all the damage. We provide emergency tarping and temporary repairs to prevent further water intrusion. Then we give you a detailed assessment and work with your insurance company to get your claim approved. Our professional roof repair services restore your roof to perfect condition once the insurance process is complete.
