Commercial Roof Repair Contractor Assists With Tornado Damage in Grapevine, TX After December 13, 2022 Destruction

Morning commuters were shocked when a tandem of tornadoes ripped through a Grapevine, Texas, business district Tuesday, Dec. 13th, leaving business owners in need of emergency roof repair services. The suddenness of the incident prevented residents from taking defensive measures, and buildings outside the twister’s path require a careful commercial roof inspection.

RestoreMasters has emergency roofing crews and inspection professionals in the area and were on the scene within minutes after twisters passed through. Commercial property owners in Grapevine are encouraged to call the roof repair office in Dallas, TX, or request help through the company website. 

At the decades-old Waffle Way restaurant on W. Northwest Hwy in Grapevine, a customer spotted one of the ferocious twisters and alerted diners to get to safety.

“He started yelling, ‘Take cover! Take cover! Take cover!’ It was unreal... like an out-of-body experience,” Waffle Way part-owner Natasha Thomp reportedly told ABC 8 news. “You don’t really know what’s going on. You don’t know what’s happening.”

Customers were able to shelter in the rear of the eatery as the building suffer wind roof damage, a mangled awning, and blown-out windows. Thanks to the quick thinking of one alert patron, no one was injured. But the entire surrounding business district will require commercial roof repair and restoration.

It’s essential for property owners that did not necessarily sustain a direct hit to request a complimentary roof inspection. When tornados trek through an area, their vacuum force pulls on everything. It’s not uncommon for buildings to suffer roof wind damage that doesn’t leak for months after the severe weather incident. Taking advantage of prompt commercial roof inspection services gives owners a clear, concise report that supports an insurance claim.

A local map of the tornadoes in Grapevine shows a dark line where the cyclones cut a path of destruction. It indicates the twisters tore a swath from west of Dragon Stadium, across the row of big box outlets, restaurants, offices, and all the way to Cowboys Golf Course.

Strong winds can rip open some roofing systems and cause severe roof wind damage.

Some older roofs can sustain damage from only 50 mph winds.

Roof damage can be severe or mild, depending on various factors which include: materials used on the roof, impact of debris, building height and proximity to other buildings, age, angle and shape of the roof and type of roofing.

Getting a roof inspection & property damage assessment after severe weather like this is important for determining whether you need to address roof damage from hail or high winds.

Circumstances do not always allow for immediate repair of roof leaks. In the meantime, an experienced disaster roofing contractor can cover the roof or affected area with a tarp or with a durable plastic shrink wrap material, until such a time when more permanent repairs can be made. We need to stop more moisture damage, so we can prevent mold growth.

Get your roof inspected, even if you think there is no problem, especially if your property falls anywhere within the area of the hail and wind damage map.

Some storm damage symptoms take time to appear.

And insurance company deadlines could hinder your ability to file a claim later.
