Storm & Hail Damage · Insurance Claims · Minneapolis & the Twin Cities
After a storm, the most valuable thing we give you is the truth. We inspect thoroughly, tell you whether you actually have damage, and, if you do, document it the way your insurance company needs to see it. No pressure, no games, no inflated claims.

Minnesota roofs take hail, straight-line wind, ice, and the occasional tornado, and storm damage is the most common reason a roof needs work before its time. Twin Cities hail season peaks May through August, and the problem is that most of what it does doesn’t look like damage from the ground.
Hail bruises shingles and knocks loose the granules that protect the asphalt underneath; those spots fail quietly over the next few years. Wind lifts and creases shingles, breaks their seal, and tears at ridge caps and flashing. A single storm can shorten a roof’s life by a decade without ever causing a visible leak, which is exactly why a detailed, up-close inspection matters more than a guess.

Here’s where 30+ years pays off: we tell you whether you truly have a claim before you call your insurer. Filing a claim with no real damage can cost you. It goes on your record either way. So we get on the roof, photograph everything, and give you a straight answer.
If the damage is real, we document it thoroughly: dated photos, measurements, a damage map, and the specific evidence adjusters look for. If it isn’t, we’ll tell you that too, and you’ll have a clean bill of health for your records. Either way, you leave with facts, not a sales pitch.

An insurance claim isn’t complicated when someone who’s done hundreds of them is helping you through it. Here’s the path, and exactly what we do at each step. (We document, communicate, and refer; we don’t act as your public adjuster or “represent” you, and we can’t give legal advice.)
We inspect, photograph, and document the damage the way carriers require, before anything is disturbed. You get a copy of everything.
You contact your insurer and file. We give you the documentation and the language to describe what happened, so nothing gets lost in translation. (Step-by-step walkthrough: Filing a hail damage roof insurance claim in Minnesota →)
We meet your insurance adjuster on-site and walk the roof with them, pointing out documented damage so it’s on the record. This one step is where most under-paid claims are won or lost.
Once the claim is approved, we restore the roof to code with premium materials, and we handle the supplement paperwork if the adjuster missed legitimate items. When an insurer simply won’t cooperate, we can connect you with experienced public adjusters who work for you, not the insurer.
The storm-chasing industry gave roofing a bad name. We’re the opposite of it — by design.
Aligning with what’s best for the Twin Cities is exactly what makes us the safer choice after a storm.
Not every storm means a new roof. Sometimes a targeted repair restores the roof completely; sometimes the damage is widespread enough that a full replacement is the correct (and insurable) outcome. We give you the honest read and the documentation to back it up, then let the evidence and your policy decide.
We’re based in the north and northeast metro, and we respond where we live. When hail moved through St. Anthony and the northeast metro on June 19, 2026, we were inspecting roofs in the neighborhoods around Silver Lake within days because people called us, not by door knocking and disturbing the neighborhood, like the storm-chasers who follow the weather from three states away. Here’s what happened in that storm, and what we found on the roofs →
Because we’re local, we know which storms actually hit which suburbs, what the damage looked like, and what the carriers are seeing on those claims. That context helps your claim and protects you from paying for damage a storm didn’t cause.

The only way to know is an up-close inspection. That’s because hail damage rarely shows from the ground. We’ll get on the roof, document what’s there, and tell you honestly. If there’s no real damage, we’ll say so, so you don’t file a claim you don’t need.
Inspect first. A documented inspection tells you whether you have a legitimate claim before it goes on your insurance record, and gives you the evidence to file cleanly if you do.
Often, yes. Most homeowner policies cover sudden storm, hail, and wind damage, minus your deductible. Coverage depends on your policy and the damage. We document what happened; your insurer decides the claim.
Yes. We walk the roof with your adjuster and point out documented damage so it’s on the record. It’s one of the most valuable things we do.
No, in Minnesota that’s illegal, and it’s a red flag. We never cover or waive deductibles, and we’d encourage you to be cautious with anyone who does.
Hail season in Minnesota runs spring through early fall and peaks May through August, the same months most severe wind events roll through. If a storm has passed over your neighborhood in that window, a documented inspection is the smart first step.
Active leaks and open damage get priority. We’ll tarp and stabilize first, then plan the permanent restoration. Call 612-255-9605. (Emergency roof repair ⟢)
