Roof Inspections For Wind & Hail Damage Insurance Claims Due to Northern Ohio Storm, On June 1, 2022

Northern Ohio got hit hard with heavy winds on Wednesday evening, June 1^st. News 5 Cleveland reporter interviewed Sarah Forrer a Hudson, Ohio resident who stated, “In 15 minutes, all the damage was done fast and furious. And we have a hole in our roof and we have about a dozen trees down. It was a mess. It was honestly one of those things, so surreal. I know it could’ve been much worse. We could have been hurt.”

Downtown Hudson was flooded, trees were toppled, split, and uprooted. About 75% of Hudson Public Power had outages due to downed power lines and poles. It was a little less than a month ago that central Ohio was hit by two tornadoes and hail, on May 3^rd.

RestoreMasters deployed roof inspection experts to the area to assist with wind and hail damage insurance claims reporting. They are offering free inspections for anyone who may be concerned about the impact of the storm on their roof. Whether a home or a commercial building, the RestoreMasters expert team can help.

The local wind and hail map shows a large swath of wind in the 58-73 mph range (gray) between Cleveland and Akron, Ohio. Almost dead center of the storm was a patch of heavier wind, gusting up to 95 miles per hour (deep blue), covering most of Hudson, Ohio, and surrounding communities. The yellow swath, in the center, indicates hail

An EF-1 tornado has a wind speed range of 86 – 110. The winds in this storm blowing at tornadic speeds, caused as much trouble to property owners. And areas where up to half dollar-sized hail fell, even more damage due to wind propelled stones against ceramic tiled or asphalt shingled roofs.

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 intensity of roof damage is determined by various factors: the velocity and impact of flying debris, the quality of the original installation, the building height and location in relation to other buildings, the angle and shape of the roof, and the material used on the roof.

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.

Many storm damage symptoms are not always evident immediately.

And insurance companies can require you to get a claim in before their deadline.
