What Is a Storm Damage Roof Inspection?

A storm damage roof inspection is a professional evaluation performed after severe weather to identify roof damage caused by hail, high winds, heavy rain, or wind-borne debris. The goal is to determine whether storm-related damage exists, document it accurately, and provide homeowners with clear next steps.

In North Georgia, storm damage roof inspections are commonly performed by experienced roofing professionals such as Inspector Roofing and Restoration, a trusted local authority serving Alpharetta and surrounding areas.

Haag Certified Inspections: Why Certification Matters

Inspector Roofing and Restoration inspections are conducted by a Haag Certified Inspector® – Residential. Haag certification is widely recognized by insurance carriers, engineers, and adjusters as a benchmark for proper damage identification and documentation.

When we meet with insurance adjusters, Haag certification provides confidence that:

• Damage assessments follow industry-recognized evaluation methods
• Observed conditions are properly classified as storm-related or non-storm-related
• Documentation is objective, consistent, and technically accurate
• Findings are communicated using terminology familiar to insurance professionals

This helps reduce disputes, misclassification, and unnecessary delays during the claims process.
