Contractor Provides Commercial Roof Inspection Services To Help Devastated Arkansas Property Owners After Tornadoes, Wind Storm Strike on November 4, 2022

Upwards of 14 tornadoes and high-wind incidents were confirmed tearing roofs off buildings and uprooting trees on Friday, Nov. 4th, leaving property owners in dire need of emergency roof repair and commercial roof inspection services.

The number of twisters that touched down hasn’t been seen in the Natural State in over a decade, and RestoreMasters commercial roofing specialists are in the area to help ailing residents. Impacted property owners can contact a contractor at the roof repair office in Ardmore, OK, for prompt assistance.

“An EF2 tears the roof off of a well-built single-family home. Pretty much the only difference between an EF2 and an EF3 is whether or not the walls are still standing,” Dennis Cavanaugh, National Weather Service meteorologist in North Little Rock, reportedly said. “We saw roofs off homes and barns and other outbuildings completely destroyed. With roofs gone, that rain could get in and cause even more damage.”

Commercial property owners are urged to request a complimentary roof inspection to document the damage in support of an insurance claim. It’s also important to have a commercial roof inspection conducted when a tornado passes through an area. That’s largely because flying debris and the vacuum it creates lifts flat roofing materials, tugs metal panels, and loosens fasteners. Insurance carriers are more likely to approve a report detailed by a commercial roof inspection services firm promptly after the storm passes.

A local map of the tornadoes in Arkansas shows four gray sections indicating tornadoes and intense winds crossed communities such as Texarkana, Little Rock, Hope, Searcy, Benton, and areas north of De Queen. The fast-moving storm fronts left widespread roof wind damage to commercial, agricultural, and institutional buildings.

Severe storms, bringing hail, strong winds, or tornadoes can cause severe roof damage, by ripping off roofing systems.

Some older roofs can be damaged by winds as low as 50 miles per hour.

The severity of roof damage depends on several factors including: type and age of roofing materials, presence of flying debris, roof shape and angle, building height and proximity to adjacent structures and the quality of original roof installation.

It’s important to get a thorough roof inspection & property damage assessment following severe weather like this so that you can determine whether you have roof damage from hail or high winds.

If roof leaks are a problem, they need to be addressed immediately. Experienced roofing contractors can either cover the affected area (or the entire roof) with a tarp or with a durable shrink wrap plastic membrane until long-term repairs can be made. Preventing water intrusion will help stop mold from growing.

Even if you don’t think your roof was damaged, you will want to get your roof inspected if your property falls anywhere within the hail damage map.

Some storm damage problems do not produce symptoms right away.

And insurance companies sometimes enforce deadlines for claims, so you need to get your claim filed quickly.
