Common Types of Storm-Related Roof Damage
Different storms can cause various types of damage to a roof. Here are some of the most common issues we see listed below.
High Wind Damage
Strong winds from hurricanes or severe thunderstorms can lift and rip off shingles. You may notice missing shingles or shingles that have creased (a telltale horizontal line which means the shingle was bent back by wind). Winds can also loosen flashing and ridge vents. In extreme cases, wind can even compromise the roof decking or structure, especially if the roof was already in a weakened state.
Hail Damage
Hailstones can bruise asphalt shingles by knocking off their protective granules and creating dents. These impact marks might not cause immediate leaks, but they do shorten the lifespan of your shingles and can lead to issues down the line. With large hail (golf ball size or bigger, which we’ve seen in parts of Texas), shingles, skylights, and even vents can crack or puncture outright. Tile roofs can also crack from hail strikes.
Falling Debris
Storm winds often break tree limbs or send debris flying. A heavy branch can crash onto a roof, causing anything from shingle damage to puncturing the roof deck or even breaking through into the attic. Even smaller debris can scratch or gouge roofing materials. After a storm, you might find pieces of roofing or debris littered around – which is a sign something hit or tore at your roof.
Water Infiltration
The ultimate result of many of the above issues is water finding its way under your roof’s protective layers. Rain driven by wind can enter through any compromised spot. Once water is in, it can soak insulation, stain ceilings, warp wood framing, and invite mold. Sometimes the storm itself may not fully soak through, but it sets the stage for the next rain to cause a leak.
Catastrophic Roof Failure
In the worst storms (like a direct hit from a tornado or a Category 3+ hurricane), roofs can experience catastrophic failure – large sections torn off, structural damage, etc. In such cases, emergency measures and a full roof replacement are likely needed. While rare, it’s something we are prepared to handle, ensuring your home is safe and secure again.
Why Choose RISE Roofing for Storm Damage Repair
When recovering from a storm, you need a roofing company you can trust. Here’s why RISE Roofing is the right choice in Houston and Corpus Christi.
Mother Nature can be tough on roofs, but RISE Roofing is here to make the recovery easier. From the moment you call us to the final inspection of repairs, we aim to turn a stressful situation into a positive experience of rebuilding and renewal.
Honesty
Unfortunately, the chaos after storms can attract some dishonest practices in the contracting world – like contractors inventing damage or upselling unnecessary work. RISE Roofing believes in honest assessments. If your roof can be repaired, we’ll tell you that and not push for a full replacement. If the damage is severe and a replacement is truly needed, we’ll show you why. Our focus is on what’s genuinely best for your home. We have built trust in our community by being straightforward and doing what we say we will. When you work with us, you can rest assured you’re getting honest advice and fair pricing.
Fast Response
We prioritize emergency calls. After a major storm, we mobilize our crews to handle inspections and temporary repairs quickly. We understand that your home is vulnerable and that you’re anxious to get it fixed. Our ability to respond fast can help minimize additional damage (like avoiding that next rain from pouring into your living room). We’re local, so we can often get to you faster than out-of-town contractors.
Local Reliability
We are a local Texas company, not storm chasers who swoop in and leave. Our reputation in Houston, Corpus Christi, and surrounding areas is built on quality work and trust. We’ll be here long after the storm to stand by our repairs and honor any warranties. Choosing a local, established company means you have a point of contact should you have questions later or need future service. Plus, we know the local building codes and common weather patterns, which informs our repair methods.
Insurance Know-How
Navigating insurance claims can be confusing and time-consuming. RISE Roofing has extensive experience working with insurance companies on storm damage claims. We understand their paperwork, the lingo (like RCV, ACV, depreciation, etc.), and what they need to approve a claim. We can help ensure that all legitimate damage is included in your claim. Homeowners who go it alone might miss something or feel pressured to accept a low settlement; we help by giving you the information and support you need. Many adjusters in the area already know us and have seen the quality of our work, which helps establish credibility.
Quality Workmanship
Storm repairs need to be done right to truly restore your roof’s integrity. Our crews are trained for not just installations but also repairs, which can sometimes be trickier (blending new materials with old, ensuring a proper seal on an existing roof, etc.). We don’t cut corners just because it’s a “patch.” In fact, we often spend extra time on storm repairs to reinforce the surrounding areas, so the repaired spot is as strong as the undamaged parts of the roof. The last thing you want is to have the same spot leak again the next storm – and we take pride in doing the job once and doing it right.

Storm Damage Repair FAQ
What qualifies as a roofing emergency?
A roofing emergency includes any sudden damage that exposes your home or building to active leaks, water intrusion, or safety hazards. This could result from storms, falling trees, high winds, hail, or even structural failure. Leaks entering your attic or living space, sagging ceilings, blown-off shingles, or roof collapses are all considered emergencies. RISE Roofing responds quickly to protect your property and prevent further damage.
How fast can RISE Roofing respond to an emergency call?
We offer 24/7 emergency response for roof damage in Houston, Corpus Christi, and surrounding areas. In most cases, we arrive within a few hours to assess and temporarily secure the damaged area. During active storms, response times may vary based on weather conditions and call volume, but we prioritize every urgent request and keep you informed.
Do you provide emergency roof tarping?
Yes. We provide emergency roof tarping to temporarily stop active leaks and shield your home from additional water damage. Our team secures high-grade tarp material over affected areas and seals around vents, chimneys, or broken tiles. This gives you immediate protection until permanent repairs or a full replacement can be completed safely.
What should I do while waiting for emergency roof repair?
If it's safe to do so, place buckets or towels under leaks to catch water and minimize interior damage. Turn off power to affected areas to avoid electrical hazards, especially near ceiling leaks. Take photos of damage for insurance purposes, and do not attempt to go onto the roof yourself. Call RISE Roofing immediately, and we’ll walk you through next steps and dispatch help fast.
Will insurance cover emergency roof repairs?
Most homeowners insurance policies cover emergency repairs when damage results from a covered event like hail, wind, or fallen trees. Our team documents the damage and provides detailed invoices for insurance submission. We also work with adjusters directly and can help you file a claim for both temporary tarping and permanent repairs or replacement.
Can you repair all types of roofing in emergencies?
Yes. Our emergency response crews are trained to repair asphalt shingles, metal roofing, TPO, PVC, modified bitumen, tile, and more. Whether you have a sloped residential roof or a flat commercial system, we bring the right materials and tools for on-the-spot stabilization and can follow up with full repairs afterward.
Do you offer after-hours and weekend emergency service?
Yes. RISE Roofing operates an emergency hotline and dispatches crews after-hours, on weekends, and during holidays. Storms don’t wait for business hours—and neither do we. Call us anytime for urgent issues like active leaks, storm damage, or structural concerns.
How much does emergency roof repair cost?
Costs vary based on the extent of damage and access to the area. Emergency tarping starts around $300–$500, while larger repairs may cost more. We provide up-front estimates and transparent pricing before starting any work. If your repair is part of an insurance claim, temporary repair costs are usually reimbursable under your policy.
Do you offer financing for emergency roof replacement after damage?
Yes. If your roof requires full replacement after an emergency, RISE Roofing offers financing options to help you manage costs. We also assist with insurance claims and explain your deductible, upgrade options, and payment plan availability. Don’t delay necessary repairs due to budget—our team will help you find the right solution quickly.
Can you help if I already had temporary repairs done but need permanent fixes?
Absolutely. If you had a contractor tarp or patch your roof but still need full repairs or a replacement, contact us for a follow-up inspection. We’ll assess what was done, check for any remaining issues, and provide a complete scope of work. We frequently take over projects after emergency patch jobs to ensure long-term protection and code-compliant installation.
