Hail, wind, and fallen trees can leave a roof compromised in ways that are not always visible from the ground. A storm-damaged roof allows water to enter the decking, framing, and insulation, turning a roof problem into a much larger structural issue. Titan Siding and Roofing is an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred roofing contractor serving Cincinnati, Mason, West Chester, Loveland, and surrounding communities, specializing in storm-damage roof replacement.
How Titan Handles Storm Damage Roof Replacement
Titan Siding and Roofing follows a six-step roof replacement process on every job, including storm damage. Our HAAG Certified inspectors document the full scope of damage before any work begins, which protects homeowners when it comes time to file an insurance claim:
Full Roof Inspection
We inspect your shingles, underlayment, decking, flashing, drip edge, and gutter aprons. Any damaged or rotten decking is documented and flagged for replacement before new materials are installed.
Insurance Claim Support
Titan works directly with your insurance company from the initial inspection through the final settlement. We attend the adjustment meeting with you, document all storm damage for the adjuster, and handle the paperwork so the claim accurately reflects what your roof needs.
Replacement Installation
Once the insurance claim is settled and materials are selected, our crew removes the existing roof, replaces any damaged decking, and installs your new Owens Corning roofing system. Titan replaces metal flashings, drip edges, and gutter aprons as part of every full replacement.

Signs Your Roof Needs Storm Damage Replacement: Roof Storm Damage Checklist
Roof storm damage does not always produce an active roof leak right away. By the time water appears on your ceiling, it has already worked through the decking and underlayment. A roof storm damage checklist and inspection is the only way to know what you are dealing with before water reaches your home’s framing and insulation:
- Hail Damage: Hail knocks granules off the shingle surface, leaving bruised or cracked spots that expose the asphalt layer underneath, and granule buildup in your gutters is a reliable indicator of impact.
- Wind Damage: Wind breaks the adhesive seal strips that hold shingles flat against the deck, causing lifting, curling, or missing sections. Shingles that appear attached after wind uplift may have broken seals that will not reseal.
- Fallen Trees and Structural Damage: Fallen trees and heavy debris can puncture the roof deck, break rafters, and compromise flashing in ways that require full replacement, and soft spots in the decking after debris is cleared signal that the underlying wood cannot support new roofing materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does storm damage always require a full roof replacement?
Not every storm leaves a roof in bad enough shape to warrant full replacement, but hail damage, wind uplift, and fallen trees that breach the decking or underlayment usually do. A HAAG Certified inspection is the only reliable way to know what you are actually dealing with.
How does the Owens Corning Platinum Protection warranty cover storm damage roof replacements?
The Owens Corning Platinum Protection warranty covers both roofing materials and workmanship for life, for as long as you own your home. Titan Siding and Roofing is one of a select group of Owens Corning Platinum Preferred roofing contractors authorized to offer this level of coverage.
What counts as storm damage on a roof?
Storm damage includes missing or lifted shingles, granule loss from hail impact, cracked or punctured decking, and compromised flashing around chimneys and vents. Soft spots in the deck and water stains inside the attic after rain are also signs that the roof has been breached.
Can homeowners file storm damage roof insurance claims without a contractor?
Homeowners can file insurance claims without a contractor, but having an experienced roofing contractor present at the adjustment meeting means all documented damage is accounted for in the claim. Titan Siding and Roofing attends adjustment meetings with homeowners and handles the paperwork from initial inspection through final settlement.
