When the storm passes, the real work begins.
Florida homeowners know that hurricane season can be unpredictable — strong winds, flying debris, and heavy rainfall can cause sudden, serious roof damage. Acting quickly after a storm is crucial to protect your home from leaks, mold, and structural deterioration.
Step 1: Stay Safe
The first priority is safety. Avoid climbing onto your roof immediately after a storm. Power lines may be down, shingles can be slippery, and structural damage might not be visible from the ground. Instead, walk around your property to check for visible signs of trouble — like fallen branches, missing shingles, or hanging gutters.
Step 2: Document the Damage
Take clear photos and videos from multiple angles. This documentation will be vital for your insurance claim. Include images of the interior if leaks or water stains are visible. Don’t attempt temporary repairs until your insurance adjuster or roofing contractor has seen the damage.
Step 3: Call a Professional
Cherry Roofing provides emergency roof inspections within hours of your call. Our trained experts assess your roof, identify immediate threats, and offer temporary tarping to prevent further leaks. We also handle photo documentation and insurance coordination so the process is simple and stress-free.
Step 4: Evaluate Repair vs. Replacement
Not all storm damage requires a full replacement — but ignoring it can make matters worse. Our licensed team will recommend the most cost-effective and durable solution:
- Localized damage: patch and reinforce.
- Severe structural issues: replacement for long-term safety.
Cherry Roofing uses premium materials rated for Florida’s weather conditions, backed by strong manufacturer and workmanship warranties.
