Services
Roof Inspections
Our certified inspectors perform comprehensive evaluations of residential and commercial roofs to identify hail damage, wear, and structural issues. Using industry-standard techniques, we document findings in detailed reports that meet insurance requirements. Clients receive clear recommendations for repairs or replacements, along with transparent cost estimates.
Storm Damage Repair
We specialize in restoring properties damaged by Nebraska's severe weather, including hail, wind, and tornado events. Our rapid response team secures damaged roofs to prevent further water intrusion while coordinating with insurance adjusters. We repair or replace shingles, gutters, siding, and structural components using manufacturer-certified materials.
Metal Roofing
We install durable metal roofing systems that withstand Nebraska's extreme weather conditions. Available in standing seam and exposed fastener configurations, our metal roofs offer energy efficiency, fire resistance, and 40-70 year lifespans. We use premium Conklin products that qualify for potential insurance discounts.
Insurance Claims Assistance
Our team guides homeowners through the insurance claims process, from initial damage documentation to final approval. We create detailed reports with photographs and measurements, communicate directly with adjusters, and ensure policyholders receive appropriate compensation for covered damages.
Siding Replacement
We install premium vinyl and fiber cement siding that enhances curb appeal while protecting against weather damage. Our certified technicians replace storm-damaged siding, improve energy efficiency, and offer color-matching services to complement existing roof systems.
