Common Types of Storm Damage

High winds, hail, heavy rain, and fallen trees cause immediate damage that threatens your home's protection and value. Nitro Roofing & Construction specializes in storm damage assessment, insurance claims assistance, and complete roof restoration. We help Ohio homeowners navigate the entire process from emergency protection through permanent repairs.
Wind Damage

High winds lift, tear, and remove shingles, exposing underlayment and decking to water infiltration. Wind can also damage flashing, ridge caps, and roof edges.

Hail Damage

Hailstones create bruising, cracking, and granule loss on shingles, compromising their protective capabilities and shortening roof lifespan significantly.

Heavy Rain Damage

ntense rainfall exploits existing vulnerabilities, causing leaks through damaged shingles, compromised flashing, and deteriorated seals around penetrations.

Fallen Trees and Branches

Trees or large branches falling on roofs create punctures, structural damage, and large openings that expose your home to immediate water intrusion.

Debris Impact

Flying debris during storms can puncture shingles, dent metal components, crack vents, and damage skylights or chimneys.

Lightning Strikes

Direct lightning strikes or nearby strikes can damage roofing materials, create fire hazards, and compromise structural integrity.

Even storms that seem minor can cause hidden damage that worsens over time.
Professional inspection after any significant weather event protects your investment.
