What Storm Damage Roofing Includes
Storm damage roofing focuses on finding and fixing roof problems caused by extreme weather. In Buford, that often means wind-lifted shingles, hail bruising or granule loss, cracked flashing, bent vents, or branches that have punctured the decking. Depending on what we find, your best option could be a targeted repair, a larger section repair, or a full replacement if damage is widespread.
Here is what you can expect from Elite Roofing Systems after a big storm:
- Free storm damage inspections with photos and simple explanations.
- Emergency tarping when available to help stop active leaks.
- Clear repair or replacement recommendations based on roof age and damage pattern.
- Quality materials that fit your home style and budget, with manufacturer-backed options.
- Respectful crews that protect landscaping and clean up thoroughly.
Common Signs Of Roof Storm Damage
Some storm damage is easy to see from the ground. Other issues need a trained eye. Look for these warning signs after high wind or hail:
- Shingles that are creased, curled, cracked, or missing
- Loose or bent metal flashing around chimneys, walls, or skylights
- Gutters full of shingle granules or dented from hail
- Water stains on ceilings, in the attic, or around light fixtures
- Soft spots on soffits or fascia, or drip-edge damage
- Debris on the roof, especially larger limbs near penetrations and valleys
If you notice any of these, reach out to Elite Roofing Systems at 770-217-1278 for a same-day or next-day inspection window when possible.
Our Storm Response Process
Fast Local Inspection
We schedule a convenient time, arrive on site, and document your roof’s condition with clear photos and notes. Safety is our first priority, so we evaluate hazards before stepping onto the roof.
Clear Findings And Options
You receive a simple summary of what we found, what it means for your roof, and the most cost-effective next steps. We answer your questions and help you compare repair versus replacement if both are viable.
Tarping And Repairs
If water is entering the home, we can often provide temporary protection right away. Permanent repairs are completed as soon as materials and weather allow. If the roof is at the end of its service life or damage is extensive, we outline replacement options.
Quality Control And Clean Up
We finish with a final walkthrough, magnet sweep for nails, and site cleanup. You receive documentation for your records.
Local tip: After a hail or wind event in Buford, take quick exterior photos from the ground and note the date and time. Save any ceiling stain pictures, too. This simple record helps you track changes and can make the next steps smoother while you wait for a professional inspection.

Local Weather And Roofing In Buford
Buford sees fast-changing weather. Spring and summer bring strong thunderstorms and hail. Late season tropical systems can push heavy rain and gusty wind through north Georgia. Homes near Lake Lanier and along Buford Drive and Peachtree Industrial often get open-wind exposure, which can loosen shingles and lift flashing.
Many Buford roofs are architectural asphalt shingles, while some homes use metal accents. Both can take hail and wind hits in different ways. We check shingles for loss of protective granules and bruising, and we inspect panels and seams on metal for dents or loosened fasteners. Water management matters too. If storms beat up your drainage system, see how we repair and replace gutters to protect siding, fascia, and foundations.
Storm Damage Help For Homes And Businesses
We work with single-family homes, townhomes, and light commercial buildings. If you manage a storefront or small warehouse, we can assess wind uplift at edges and penetrations and recommend repair options that fit your schedule. Explore our dedicated pages for residential roofing and commercial roofing to learn more about the systems we service.
Insurance And Documentation Support
While every policy is different, good documentation always helps. We provide photos, simple notes, and a written estimate you can share with your carrier if you choose to file a claim. We cannot speak for any insurer, yet clear, dated evidence can make next steps easier.
If you are unsure whether to repair or replace, we explain the pros and cons for your roof’s age and condition, then let you decide. Our goal is to protect your home and budget with the right scope of work.
Frequently Asked Questions
If water is entering the home, call a roofer first to secure the roof and limit damage. After the roof is safe, you can contact your insurer if you decide to start a claim. We will share photos and an estimate for your records.
It depends on material availability, roof accessibility, and weather. We can often complete minor repairs quickly and provide temporary protection if rain is coming. Your estimator will outline timing as soon as we inspect.
We look at the age of your roof, how widespread the damage is, and whether repairs will extend its life in a cost-effective way. If damage affects large areas or the roof is near the end of its service life, replacement may be the better long-term value.
