Fast Response When Your Roof Can't Wait
Storm damage has a way of getting worse quickly. A few missing shingles today can mean a soaked attic, stained ceilings, and mold next month. That’s why Roof Duck prioritizes storm calls across Lancaster County.
We’ll get eyes on your roof fast, document everything we find, and secure your home with emergency tarping if it can’t wait for permanent repairs. Then we walk you through your options (repair, replacement, or an insurance claim) with honest recommendations and no pressure.
Types of Storm Damage We Handle
Wind Damage
Central PA windstorms lift, crease, and tear shingles, and the damage isn't always visible from the ground. Even shingles that stay put can lose their seal, leaving your roof vulnerable to the next storm. We check for lifted edges, creased tabs, missing shingles, and damaged flashing.
Hail Damage
Hail bruises shingles and knocks off the protective granules that shield them from UV damage. It rarely causes an immediate leak, which is exactly why it gets missed until your roof ages years ahead of schedule. If hail has hit your neighborhood, a free inspection is worth 20 minutes of your time.
Fallen Trees and Debris
Lancaster County's mature trees are beautiful until a limb comes down on your roof. From punctured decking to crushed gutters, we handle debris impact damage of every size, including emergency board-up and tarping when your home is exposed.
Ice and Winter Storm Damage
Freeze-thaw cycles and ice dams force water under shingles and into your home. If you noticed leaks or ceiling stains after a winter storm, the damage is likely still up there waiting for the next one.

Repair or Replace? We'll Give You a Straight Answer
Not every storm-damaged roof needs to be replaced, and we’ll never tell you it does when a repair will do the job. If your roof is newer and the damage is isolated, a roof repair is usually the right call. If your roof is 20+ years old with widespread damage, a full replacement is often the smarter long-term investment, especially when insurance is covering part of the cost. Either way, it starts with a free inspection and an honest conversation.
Frequently Asked Questions About Storm Damage
How do I know if my roof has storm damage?
Some signs are obvious: missing shingles, dented gutters, debris on the roof. Others aren’t visible from the ground, like creased shingles, hail bruising, or broken seals. If a storm with strong wind or hail has passed through your area, the only way to know for sure is a professional inspection. Roof Duck offers them free to Lancaster homeowners.
Will my homeowners insurance cover storm damage to my roof?
Most policies cover sudden storm damage from wind, hail, and falling debris, but coverage depends on your policy, your deductible, and the age of your roof. We’ll inspect first and tell you honestly whether the damage justifies a claim, then work directly with your adjuster if it does.
How fast can Roof Duck respond after a storm?
Storm calls go to the front of the line. In most cases, we can get an inspector to your Lancaster County home within a day or two, and emergency tarping can happen even faster if your home is exposed.
Should I file an insurance claim before getting an inspection?
We recommend the inspection first. If the damage is minor, filing a claim below your deductible can raise your premiums for nothing. An inspection gives you the full picture so you can make an informed decision, and if a claim makes sense, our documentation strengthens it.
How long do I have to file a storm damage claim in Pennsylvania?
Most policies give you six months to a year from the date of the storm, but sooner is always better. Damage gets harder to attribute to a specific storm as time passes, and unrepaired damage can worsen and complicate your claim.
What if insurance doesn't cover the full cost?
Roof Duck offers financing through Wisetack with rates starting at 0% APR and no hidden fees. Checking eligibility takes seconds with no impact to your credit score.
