What Our Hail Damage Roof Repair Includes
Every hail damage roof repair job starts with a full inspection and a written scope. Here is what we cover, from emergency tarping to final cleanup.
Work order
Hail Damage Roof Repair- Full Roof Inspection: We walk the entire roof, check ridges, valleys, and flashing, and photograph every hail strike. A moisture meter and infrared camera scan for hidden wet decking. You get a written report with findings and recommended repairs.
- Emergency Tarping: If hail has opened your roof, we install a heavy-duty tarp the same day to stop water intrusion. We secure it with roofing cement and battens so it holds through wind and rain until permanent repairs begin.
- Shingle Replacement: We replace cracked and missing shingles with matching GAF or Owens Corning products. Damaged underlayment and ice and water shield are replaced in valleys and around penetrations.
- Flashing and Vent Repair: Hail dents and loosens flashing around chimneys, skylights, and vents. We re-seal or replace damaged flashing, repair vent caps, and ensure all penetrations are watertight. This stops leaks at the most common entry points.
- Debris Cleanup: After repairs, we clean your gutters of shingle granules and debris, sweep your yard and driveway with magnetic tools for nails, and haul away all old materials. Your property is left clean and safe.

What Hail Damage Roof Repair Wilkes-Barre PA Involves
Hail damage does not fix itself. A small crack lets in water that rots decking and ruins insulation. Fixing it properly the first time saves you money and headaches.
Hail Damage Roof Repair Wilkes-Barre PA is the process of identifying and fixing impact damage that hailstones leave on asphalt shingles, metal panels, and flat membranes. Even quarter-sized hail can bruise a shingle's mat, knock off granules, and crack the sealant strip that holds tabs down. We start with a full roof inspection using a moisture meter and infrared thermal camera to find soft spots you cannot see from the ground. Then we replace damaged shingles, re-seal flashing, and restore the roof to code.
In Wilkes-Barre, hail season runs hard from April through September, and the Wyoming Valley's older housing stock takes a beating. Many homes in Miners Mills and Parsons still have 20-year-old three-tab shingles that crack on impact. After a storm, we see missing shingles, wind damage, and flashing leaks that let water into attics. If you need hail roof repair Wilkes-Barre homeowners can schedule fast, we tarp the same day and return with materials once your claim is approved.

How Hail Damage Roof Repair Works in Wilkes-Barre
Wilkes-Barre sits in the Wyoming Valley, where hailstorms roll through from April to September and sometimes bring stones larger than a quarter. The city's housing stock is old, with many homes built before 1950 and still covered in three-tab asphalt shingles that crack easily on impact.
Miners Mills
Many homes here have older shingle roofs that show hail damage quickly. We often find cracked mats and granule loss after summer storms.
Downtown Wilkes-Barre
Flat roofs on commercial buildings are prone to hail punctures and ponding. We repair TPO and EPDM membranes regularly in this area.
Parsons
Tree cover and older roofs mean hail damage often goes unnoticed until leaks appear. We use infrared cameras to find hidden moisture.

Hail Damage Problems We Solve in Wilkes-Barre
Hail leaves behind more than dents. Here are the most common problems we fix for Wilkes-Barre homeowners after a storm.
Granule loss on asphalt shingles
Without granules, shingles dry out, crack, and fail years early. You may see granules in gutters and notice dark patches on the roof.
Cracked shingle mats and hidden leaks
Hail bruises the shingle mat without breaking the surface. Water seeps in slowly, causing ceiling stains, attic mold, and rotted decking.
Dented and leaking metal flashing
Hail dents flashing around chimneys and vents, breaking the seal. Water runs down rafters and shows up as stains on walls or ceilings.
Clogged gutters from shingle debris
Hail washes granules and broken shingle pieces into gutters, causing overflow. Water pools around your foundation and can flood basements.
Why Fix Hail Damage Right Away
Waiting on hail damage costs more than fixing it. Here is what you get when you call us first.

What Wilkes-Barre Homeowners Say
Hail hit hard in June and knocked granules off our 15-year-old shingles. I called three roofers and only Wilkes-Barre Roof Repair Pros showed up the next day. They tarped a leaky valley, documented everything for our insurance, and had the repair done in two days. The adjuster approved the full claim. No leaks since.
We had hail damage on our garage roof and did not even know it until water stained the ceiling. Their technician used an infrared camera and found wet decking we would have missed. They replaced the shingles and some plywood, and the price matched the estimate exactly. Very professional crew.
A hailstorm cracked the TPO membrane on our flat roof and we had ponding water within a week. Their team came out, patched the membrane, and restored the drainage slope. They worked around our tenants and finished in one day. We use them for all our buildings now.
