Storm and Hail Damage in Brighton, CO

Hail and wind damage on Brighton homes, from working out whether you have a claim to putting the roof back. What wind peeling back a row of shingles looks like, and how the estimate gets written.

What Hail Leaves at Eye Level

What Hail Leaves at Eye Level

The hail that dented your car, pitted the paint and bent a gutter out of line hit the roof too. That's the easiest evidence to gather, because it's all sitting at eye level. The roof is different. It has to be photographed before anyone can say what it needs.

We're GAF Master Elite certified. That certification puts GAF's enhanced warranties, the Golden Pledge among them, on qualifying roof systems.

We'll walk you through what actually counts as hail damage on a shingle before any adjuster does.

What We Do, and In What Order

We do a full exterior check, not just a roof check. What comes back is photographs, not opinions.

  • The roof itself

    The one surface nobody can see, photographed properly so there's evidence instead of an argument.
  • Gutters, downspouts and soft metals

    Usually the first place damage shows from the driveway.
  • Siding, screens, vents and paint

    All of it in the same visit. Hail comes in on an angle, so it usually marks one or two walls rather than all four.

Then the sequence:

  1. Look at the whole outside of the house and photograph everything, roof included.
  2. Tell you plainly whether we think there's a claim here, including when we think there isn't.
  3. Write the estimate in the format your insurance company reads, and meet the adjuster on the roof where that helps.
  4. Do the work once the scope is agreed, pulling the permit and calling the inspections so you don't have to.
  5. Close it out with the documentation your insurer needs before the last payment is released.

An insurance job is won or lost on the estimate. Written in the format the carrier's own people work in, the conversation stays about the roof instead of the paperwork. When the first scope misses something, we go back for it rather than telling you to. One storm usually damages several things at once. One company handling the roof, the gutters and the siding keeps it to one set of photographs. One scope, one conversation, instead of three.

Wind and hail deductibles are often a share of the insured value rather than a flat amount. The number can be bigger than people expect. There's financing available through Hearth if you need it.

The Last Time Hail Came Through

After a big storm what sets your timeline is usually the queue of everyone else on the same street, not the crews, so starting the conversation early counts for more than choosing fast. Crews travel to storms and knock on doors within hours of one ending.

Colorado's costliest hailstorm came through the north and west metro in May 2017, and the National Weather Service names Brighton among the communities it hit.

Wind doesn't lift a whole roof; it gets under one course at an edge and works along the row, so shingles peeling back in a line often turns up after the same storm that brought the hail and is easy to miss from the ground.

Hail also bruises the mat underneath the surface and knocks granules off without showing straight away, so a roof that looked fine from the driveway months ago is still worth having looked at and photographed; it costs nothing to check, and policies differ on how long you have to report it.

    Josh with Semper Fi came to look at my roof after the most recent hail storm and couldn’t have been nicer. He was honest, thorough, and explained everything about the inspection process in great detail. His attention to detail and communication made it a very comfortable experience. Albeit we don’t need a new roof, when that time does come I will be using Semper Fi and I will recommend them to all of my friends and neighbors

    We had a small job - just adding gutter covers. Semper Fi was the BEST. Arrived on time, cleaned out the gutters, installed the gutter covers in record time. Very professional. This company is a class act!

    Was very responsive. I was able to get what was needed in regards to our roof inspections on three houses quickly. And worked with our insurance agent getting the right information needed for our insurance needs. If you’re looking for someone that knows roofs and you need inspections or confirmations regarding your roof. Highly would recommend recommend this company

    We had Semper Fi Restoration Inc. complete the roof on our 10,000 sq. ft. commercial building, and we had a great experience from start to finish. We had the opportunity to meet Joshua Bosley and worked mainly with Leo, our project manager. Leo’s communication throughout the entire project was top-notch. As with any large commercial roofing project, we ran into a few unexpected snags along the way, but the Semper Fi team stepped up and took care of every issue with no questions asked. They stood behind their work, kept us informed, and made sure everything was handled properly. It’s refreshing to work with a company that takes responsibility and follows through on what they promise. We are very happy with the finished roof and would definitely recommend Semper Fi Restoration Inc. to anyone looking for a dependable and professional roofing company. Thank you to Joshua, Leo, and the entire Semper Fi team for a job well done!

    Josh Slankard with Semper Fi Restoration who orchestrated the entire roofing replacement and Paint Denver who made my 20 year old home look better than it ever did I send my heart felt thanks for you. I would recommend this company with 5 stars!

    There are a lot of Roofing Contractors out there so when I was referred Josh and his team by a close friend I knew there must be something different about them. From the first meeting with Josh and Daniel I felt comfortable and at ease. I had a lot of questions and they answered them without hesitation and in extreme detail which I appreciated. They helped me through the entire insurance journey and made sure I was covered before any work was done which helped lift that burden off my shoulders. Also, you will not find a Owner as diligent as Josh when it comes to QA/QC of the work done by his crews making sure the roof/gutters you get are up to HIS standards. I appreciate Josh and Daniel for getting the work done and definitely exceeded all my expectations. I don't usually write reviews but their work deserves some praise, I will definitely be referring them anytime I hear anyone I know is even thinking of getting or needing a new roof.

Working with Josh, Kat, and the team was a pleasure. We highly recommend Semper Fi to others! Larry and Darlene W.

    I wanted to take a moment to leave a review for Josh and his team at Semper Fi Restoration. Josh came out the same day we called to provide an estimate and inspect our roof, and a member of his team completed the repairs first thing the very next morning. We truly appreciated the quick turnaround, excellent customer service, and quality workmanship in repairing the damage to our roof. The entire process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. I highly recommend Semper Fi Restoration to anyone looking for a reliable and responsive roofing company!

    When my insurance refused to pay for my hail damaged roof, Semper Fi worked with my insurance to successfully get them to pay. They helped me with the entire process and communicated well. They were always available if I had questions. Their crew did a good job. They cleaned up after themselves. I highly recommend this company.

    I had a fantastic experience with Leo at Semper Fi Restoration Inc. He recently completed some roof repairs for me, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Leo was professional, honest, responsive, and clearly takes pride in his work. He explained everything thoroughly, showed up on time, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The quality of the repairs was excellent, and it’s clear he genuinely cares about doing the job right. It’s hard to find contractors you can truly trust, but Leo absolutely earned my confidence. I highly recommend Leo and Semper Fi Restoration Inc. to anyone needing roofing work or repairs. Outstanding service from start to finish!

    Josh Bosley and Semper Fi Restoration recently completed hail damage work on our residence. Josh handled EVERYTHING with our insurance company. The work was completed on time, as promised. Clean-up was great. Josh came back and guaranteed we were happy with everything - including fixing two small areas that we felt needed additional work. He ensured we were 100% happy prior to moving on. He was a great communicator, very patient with us, and made us extremely happy that we chose him and Semper Fi. I rarely leave reviews - but would highly recommend him. Final note, our insurance agent recommended him to us and he was as great as advertised.

    Josh is absolutely amazing, his service and follow-up is thr best I have ever experienced. The thing that really impressed me was his honesty after inspection, he shared that I didn't need a new roof. There are very few companies with that level of honesty. He has earned a customer for life.

Storm and Hail Damage in Brighton FAQs

My neighbor got a new roof and I didn't. Why?

Because a storm doesn't hit two houses identically, and two policies aren't the same either. Roof age, slope direction and the angle the hail arrived at all change the answer. What happened next door doesn't decide what happens at yours.

Does hail damage the gutters as well as the roof?

Yes, and usually more visibly. Gutter metal is thin and it marks easily, which is why it's often the first thing anyone notices. Those are dents you can see from the driveway.

What if I can't cover the deductible?

There's financing available through Hearth. Ask us about it while we're at the house and we'll walk you through how it works.

Have the Damage Photographed

We'll get on the roof and photograph what the storm actually did. Then we'll tell you plainly whether we think there's a claim here. None of it costs you anything.
