We inspect roofs, siding, gutters and exterior components after severe weather, document what we find, explain repair options and restore damaged exteriors. You get contractor facts first — not pressure to file a claim.
If a storm just moved through, focus on safety and evidence. You do not need to diagnose the roof yourself.
Stay off a wet, steep or damaged roof. Photograph visible exterior and interior damage from safe locations.
If water is actively entering, contain it inside when safe and call for a priority inspection.
Do not discard damaged materials or make permanent repairs before documenting conditions unless needed to prevent additional damage.
Have a qualified contractor inspect the exterior and explain what is repairable, what may require replacement, and what documentation exists.
Small impacts can matter. The goal is to document conditions accurately, not to assume every mark is storm damage.
Bruised or missing shingle granules, dents in vents and gutters, cracked siding, damaged trim and soft-metal impacts.
Lifted, creased or missing shingles, loosened siding, displaced flashing, fascia damage and wind-driven water entry.
Ceiling stains, attic moisture, wet insulation or dripping after a storm should be treated as a priority inspection.
We inspect the roof, siding, gutters, windows, doors and exterior components that may have been affected.
We photograph conditions, record measurements and identify repair or replacement needs from a contractor's perspective.
You receive clear repair options. If an insurance claim is involved, we can provide contractor documentation and scope information for the work.
Approved work is completed to applicable code and manufacturer installation requirements, followed by cleanup and a final walkthrough.
Insurance note: Demore is your contractor, not your insurer or public adjuster. We can inspect, estimate, photograph and document the construction work. Your carrier makes coverage decisions under your policy.
Clear answers to common questions about storm inspections and repairs.
Start with safety. Photograph visible damage from the ground, protect active interior leaks if you can do so safely, and schedule a professional exterior inspection. Demore can inspect the roof, siding, gutters and related exterior components and provide contractor documentation before you decide what to do next.
Yes. Hail can bruise shingles, loosen granules, damage vents and soft metals, or compromise siding without causing an immediate interior leak. A close inspection is often needed because storm damage can be difficult to see from the ground.
You may contact either first. Many homeowners choose to have the property inspected and documented before deciding whether to open a claim. Coverage decisions are made by the insurance carrier under the policy; Demore provides contractor inspection, repair scope and restoration documentation.
A supplement is a request for the carrier to review additional documented repair costs or scope items that were not included in the original estimate. Demore can provide contractor measurements, photos, material information and repair pricing to support the work that is actually required.
Yes. Financing options are available through Acorn and Synchrony for qualified customers. Availability and terms depend on the financing provider and the applicant.
