Emergency Roof Repair Underway After Tornadoes Rip Through Southeast Oklahoma on November 4, 2022

Destructive tornadoes and fierce winds tore through Southeast Oklahoma on Friday, Nov. 4th, leaving a wake of roof wind damage. Emergency roof repair specialists were dispatched to the region to secure buildings, provide commercial roof inspection services for ailing property owners, and help fast-track insurance claims. Those impacted by the high winds are urged to call the RestoreMasters roof repair office in Ardmore, OK.

“A Quick Response Team (QRT) assessed the damage today of the tornado that tracked 58 miles from Red River County, TX to McCurtain County, OK on Nov. 4.  This tornado is now preliminarily upgraded from an EF-3 to an EF-4 with estimated max winds of 170 mph.” the National Weather Service in Norman, OK, reportedly tweeted.

High winds, flying debris, and roof hail damage are often obvious after catastrophic weather hits. But the vacuum force of high-level tornadoes pulls on everything around it, leaving roof wind damage unnoticed until leaks occur months later. That’s why RestoreMasters urges commercial building owners in Southeast OK to request a complimentary roof inspection to ensure your claim is honored.

A local map of the tornado activity in Southeast Oklahoma shows gray swaths where the devastating high wind events tore through unsuspecting communities. Gray sections show high-wind incidents and the black lines are where tornadoes touched down, cutting paths of destruction across Southeast Oklahoma.

Tornadoes, hail, and even strong winds can cause severe wind damage to roofing systems.

Winds as low as 50 mph can cause some older roofs to be damaged.

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.

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.

In situations where you’ve got a leaking roof, experienced disaster roofing contractors can stop the leaks temporarily, by laying tarp or by using a durable shrink-wrap plastic membrane in the affected areas, or even over the entire roof. This will keep your building protected until permanent repairs can take place. This will help prevent mold infestation from water leaks.

If your property was anywhere within the storm damage map, it would be best to get your roof inspected, even if you think your roof was not damaged.

Symptoms of storm damage problems do not always show up immediately.

And deadlines from insurance companies could hinder you from filing a claim later.
