After The Storm

Hurricane roof damage in Tampa starts with a clean playbook.

Tampa Bay sits on the Gulf side of the peninsula, where a storm can arrive at full strength instead of weakened by a crossing. Sustained wind strips shingles and lifts tile. Flying debris and oak limbs puncture decks. Wind-driven rain forces water past flashing and pipe boots that were marginal before the storm and have failed completely after it. Bayshore, Davis Islands and the beach communities add surge and salt spray on top.

Most Tampa homeowners aren’t under-insured. They’re under-documented. The difference between a claim that pays the full repair and one that pays half is almost always the quality of the photos and the supplement work after the adjuster’s first visit. That is where we’ve specialized for years.

When you call (813) 590-1124, here’s what happens: tarping as soon as it is safe, a free inspection scheduled within 48 hours, photo documentation of every damage point, a scope of work written in your carrier’s language, attendance at the adjuster’s inspection, supplements for anything the adjuster misses, and direct billing to your insurer when possible. Repair details are on our storm damage roof repair page; the claim process is on roof insurance claims in Tampa.

What We Look For

Hurricane damage isn’t always obvious.

Some hurricane damage shows up immediately: missing shingles, a branch on the roof, a stain on the ceiling. Some shows up six months later when the next rainy season starts and a flashing the wind shifted finally lets water in. Our Tampa hurricane inspection looks for both.

  • Shingle wind-lift

    Sealant strips broken by wind, even when the shingle is still in place. The next storm takes it.

  • Tile cracks and slips

    Clay and concrete tile that shifted or cracked under wind, common on Tampa's Mediterranean homes and invisible from the ground.

  • Flashing displacement

    Step, valley and chimney flashing shifted under wind, opening new water paths.

  • Pipe boot tears

    Aging boots that wind-driven rain pushed past, now leaking on every afternoon storm.

  • Ridge cap failures

    Ridge caps lifted or gone, exposing the roof seam underneath.

  • Impact and tree damage

    Punctures, dents and fractures from debris, oak limbs and hail. Tampa's canopy makes this the most common call after a storm.

Insurance Specialty

We’ve worked with every major Florida insurer.

Citizens. Heritage. State Farm. USAA. Florida Peninsula. Universal. Tower Hill. Each has its own claim language, documentation requirements, and supplement process. When the carrier’s initial scope is short, we know how to write a supplement that gets paid. When the adjuster applies a depreciation that doesn’t fit Florida code, we push back with the right Florida Building Code citation.

Common Questions

Tampa hurricane damage questions, answered.

Within 24 to 48 hours of the storm passing. Florida carriers want prompt notice, and tarping is far more effective before wind-driven rain works into ceilings and walls. Call (813) 590-1124 as soon as it is safe to look at the roof; do not climb it yourself.

Most Florida policies cover hurricane and named-storm wind damage, but under a separate hurricane deductible, typically 2% to 10% of your dwelling coverage rather than a flat amount. We help you read the policy, document the damage, and pursue the full settlement.

Wind-lifted and missing shingles, cracked and slipped tile, impact damage from flying debris and fallen branches, ridge-cap and flashing failures from sustained wind, water intrusion from wind-driven rain, and full insurance-funded replacements when the roof is beyond repair.

Yes. Roof tarping in Tampa is our first response after a named storm: heavy-grade reinforced tarps battened into the structure, photographed for your claim, dispatched as soon as conditions are safe for the crew. Tarping is usually reimbursable under your policy's loss-mitigation coverage.

Yes. We document every damage point, attend the adjuster's inspection, write supplements when the carrier's scope is short, and bill the insurer directly when possible. See our Tampa roof insurance claim page for the full process.

For insured damage, your out-of-pocket cost is usually the hurricane deductible. For uninsured damage: localized repair runs about $1,500 to $5,000, partial replacement $5,000 to $15,000, and full replacement $8,000 to $30,000+ depending on size and material.
