Crew from Paterson Roofing Pros tarping a storm-damaged shingle roof in Paterson, New Jersey before rain returns.

Storm damage repair is one of the roofing services we handle all winter. Hail bruises an asphalt shingle, granule loss follows, and the mat underneath cracks.

Wind lifts a three-tab shingle at the rake or peels an architectural shingle back along the eave, which is where water wicks into the underlayment.

We tarp open sections the same day and chalk each hit so your adjuster can compare the damage to the written scope. Ice-and-water shield at the eave and valley gets checked first.

Most Paterson rowhomes are early 20th-century brick and frame buildings with shared party walls and parapets, so water travels sideways before it shows up inside. Post-war ranches and cape cods lose ridge cap and pipe boot seals first.

Repairs use replacement shingles matched to your existing field course, plus synthetic underlayment in place of the old roofing felt or tar paper. We replace decking where plywood or OSB has gone soft from rot.

Cost turns on square footage, pitch, deck condition, and how much debris comes off first. When storm damage repair stops making sense, we say so and price a full roof replacement instead.

What's Included

Same-day emergency tarping to stop water from wicking into your sheathing before the next storm arrives.

A full roof inspection with dated photographs of every dented, bruised, or missing shingle we find.

Documentation for your claim, including a line-item roof estimate your adjuster can compare to the scope.

Replacement shingles matched to your existing field course and color, with new step flashing and counter-flashing at the walls.

Fresh underlayment and ice-and-water shield at the eave and valley, where meltwater pools first.

Gutter, downspout, fascia, and soffit repair when wind and falling limbs pull them loose from the roofline.

Debris hauling with a dumpster on site, plus a magnetic sweep of the lawn for loose nails and fasteners.

Waterproofing and weatherproofing at every penetration we open, resealed before we close the roof.

Our Storm Damage Repair Process

How Our Storm Damage Repair Process Works, Step by Step

Step one: a roof inspection where we check the roof deck, sheathing, and every truss, rafter, joist, and ridge beam we can reach from the attic.
Step two: we photograph damage from the rooftop down, including hip, gable, and verge corners where wind uplift hits hardest.
Step three: a tarp goes over open sections, held with screws and anchors rather than a loose rope.
Step four: we set a scaffold or ladder and work from a safety harness with a roofing square, nail gun, air compressor, pry bar, and roofing shovel.
Step five: the line-item roof estimate goes to you and your adjuster, including any permit and building code requirement the job triggers.
Step six: crews clear debris into a dumpster, then reseal, caulk, and apply a compatible sealant, roof cement, or mastic around each penetration.
Step seven: we refit the drip edge, chimney flashing, apron flashing, boot flashing, counter-flashing, and snow guard above the eave before closing the field course.
Step eight: we walk the roofline with you, check the scupper, coping, ridge vent, and soffit ventilation, then magnet-sweep for nails.

Signs You Need Storm Damage Repair

Storm Damage Repair Warning Signs We Check on Every Roof

Granule loss collecting in the gutter means an asphalt shingle has lost its UV protection after a hail hit.
Missing or curled shingles at the ridge and rake usually mean wind lifted the field course and broke the seal.
Water stains on attic sheathing below a chimney or dormer point to failed step flashing, not a plumbing leak.
Ice dams forming along the eave after a freeze-thaw cycle push meltwater backward under the shingles.
A sagging roofline or a soft spot underfoot can mean rotten decking that has been wicking water for months.
Daylight or damp insulation around a pipe boot, pipe flashing, vent boot, or skylight says the seal has already failed.
Peeling paint or spalled brick near a gutter or downspout means water is running behind the fascia.
Loose flashing, rusted fasteners, and lifted nail heads after a nor'easter deserve a roof inspection before the next storm.

Storm Damage Repair — Frequently Asked Questions

What does storm damage repair cost in Paterson?

Storm damage repair costs depend on how many squares are damaged, your roof pitch, and whether the decking under the shingles is still sound. A small roof repair on flashing is a fraction of a full replacement.

How long does storm damage repair take to finish?

Storm damage repair usually takes one day for a single-slope repair and two to three days when we replace decking and underlayment across the roof. Rain delays the work, so the tarp stays on until we start.

Does homeowners insurance cover storm damage repair?

Storm damage repair is often covered, so we document the damage with photographs and an estimate written to Xactimate pricing, then meet your adjuster on site. If the first scope comes up short, we file a supplemental claim.

Can storm damage repair fix a flat or low-slope roof?

Storm damage repair on a flat roof depends on the membrane. TPO and PVC membrane sheets take a heat-welded patch, EPDM takes a splice adhesive, and modified bitumen or a built-up roof is patched with a torch.

Which roofing materials can storm damage repair handle?

Storm damage repair covers asphalt shingles, architectural shingles, wood shake and cedar shake, slate, clay tile, concrete tile, and metal panel roofs such as standing-seam panel and corrugated panel.

Does storm damage repair include attic ventilation and moisture checks?

Storm damage repair includes looking from the attic side, where a torn vapor barrier or a dead attic fan lets moisture rot the decking from below. We reset ridge vent and soffit vent when they are blocked.
