Here’s what storm damage looks like in real life. In Ivyland, Bucks County, a tree branch fell onto this home’s roof and compromised the entire shingle roofing system. Miguel Cespedes walks the property himself and explains why this one needs a full replacement — and he’s just as honest when a repair is all you need.
From start to finish it was a great experience working with Shelby roofing. Really good communication about scheduling and work to be done. Excellent craftsmanship. I would recommend them without hesitation for any roofing or siding project.
I’m particular and demanding in the contractors I use to take care of my home and this company did not disappoint. Professional, thorough, excellent communication. They treated my home with respect and the finished product speaks for itself.
Shelby replaced my entire roof after a tree strike. 200+ year old home with some special needs. Excellent work. Fast, clean, and professional. Could not be happier.
Absolutely thrilled with Shelby Roofing Services! From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and exceeded every expectation. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for premium roofing work.
From start to finish my husband and I had a great experience working with Shelby roofing. We were very impressed with Miguel’s ability to keep us informed at every stage and his willingness to address every concern. The quality of the completed roof exceeded our expectations. 100/100.
My daughter, who is 9 months pregnant, and her husband had a leak in their roof last night that seeped into their home. On a Sunday, Miguel responded immediately and had someone out there to assess and tarp the roof. Above and beyond service. Truly remarkable.
I want to give the biggest and most heartfelt shout out to Shelby Roofing Services! My sister discovered a leak in her ceiling just days before her due date — on a Sunday night — and Miguel responded immediately. That kind of humanity and professionalism is rare.
We used Shelby Roofing Services for our home renovation and couldn’t have made a more perfect decision. Miguel our contractor was outstanding — knowledgeable, communicative, and delivered exceptional results.
A well-installed roof is built to handle Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware weather. Here’s how different conditions can affect a roof, and what you can safely check from the ground afterward.
Strong gusts can get under shingle edges and lift or crease them, especially on aging roofs or where the adhesive seal has weakened. Once a shingle lifts, the next storm can drive water underneath.
What to look for: Missing, lifted or creased shingles, exposed nail lines, shingle pieces in the yard.
Hail can bruise shingles and knock granules loose, and it can dent flashing, gutters, downspouts, vents and siding. The damage is often invisible from the ground but can shorten a roof’s life.
What to look for: Dented gutters or downspouts, dings on metal vents, granules collecting at downspouts.
Rain itself rarely damages a sound roof, but heavy or wind-driven rain is when existing problems show up: worn flashing, failing pipe boots, clogged valleys and overflowing gutters.
What to look for: Ceiling stains, damp attic insulation, water at chimneys or skylights, overflowing gutters.
Falling limbs can puncture shingles and decking, break flashing and, in severe cases, damage rafters. Even a branch that only rests on the roof can scrape shingles as it moves in the wind.
What to look for: Branches on the roof, sagging areas, broken shingles or gutters, new leaks after a storm.
Snow adds weight, and melting snow that refreezes at the eaves can form ice dams that push water back under shingles. Good attic insulation and ventilation are the best defense.
What to look for: Icicles and ice ridges along gutters, water stains on exterior walls or ceilings near the eaves.
Thunderstorms can bring several threats at once: sudden gusts, hail and downpours. A direct lightning strike can crack roofing materials or decking and always warrants a professional inspection.
What to look for: Any of the signs above, scorch marks, or damage near chimneys and antennas.
Most storms don’t damage a sound roof, and not every storm means a new one. If you’re not sure, a free inspection gives you a straight answer: no damage, a repair, or a replacement.
After a storm you can learn a lot about your roof without ever leaving the ground. Walk around the house in daylight and look for the signs below. Spotting one doesn’t automatically mean you need a new roof — many storm issues are straightforward repairs — but it does mean a professional should take a closer look.
Request a free storm inspection. We document what we find with drone photos and tell you honestly whether your roof needs a repair, a replacement or nothing at all — and if there’s storm damage, we can guide you through the insurance claim.
After a recent storm, several shingles blew off our roof and we started looking for a contractor. Shelby Roofing came out quickly, gave us a fair assessment, and got the job done right. Very impressed.
I highly recommend Shelby Roofing! A bunch of shingles blew off our roof as a result of some recent high winds. Miguel was responsive, came out quickly, and handled everything professionally.
Stay off the roof and away from downed power lines and hanging limbs. Wet, damaged roofs are slippery and can be structurally weakened.
Walk around the house and look for missing or lifted shingles, dented gutters and flashing, branches on the roof and granules collecting at the downspouts. The ground-level guide above lists what to look for.
Look at ceilings, the tops of exterior walls and the attic for new stains, drips or damp insulation, especially around chimneys and skylights.
Take dated photos and videos of any damage, outside and in. Save the storm date — the reports on this page can help confirm it. Our first 24 hours guide walks through it.
We inspect with a drone, document the damage and tell you honestly whether you need a repair, a replacement or nothing at all. If there’s storm damage, we can guide you through the insurance claim.
Shelby Roofing Services has become the go-to for my family. Two of my relatives have used them in the past and had great experiences, and my own experience was just as excellent.

From the ground, look for missing, lifted, creased or curled shingles, damaged ridge caps, shingle pieces or granules in the yard and at the downspouts, bent flashing around the chimney, damage around vents and pipes, dented or detached gutters, and branches on the roof. Binoculars or a phone’s zoom help. If anything looks unusual, request a professional inspection rather than climbing up yourself.
Heavy or wind-driven rain rarely damages a sound roof on its own, but it’s often when existing weaknesses show up as leaks — worn flashing, cracked pipe boots, clogged valleys or overflowing gutters. New ceiling stains or damp attic insulation after a heavy rain are worth having inspected.
There isn’t one number for every roof. A properly installed shingle roof is built to handle the gusts we normally see, but gusts in the 45–60 mph range can lift or crease shingles that are aging, loose or poorly sealed, and stronger winds can damage newer roofs too. After a windy storm, look from the ground for missing, lifted or creased shingles and debris on the roof.
Hail around 1 inch (quarter size) and larger is the most likely to bruise asphalt shingles and dent metal flashing, gutters and siding. Smaller hail, even around ¾ inch, can still cause hidden damage on older roofs. Hail damage is often hard to see from the ground, which is why an inspection after a hail report near you is worthwhile.
No. Most storms don’t damage a well-installed, well-maintained roof, and many issues that do occur can be repaired. A free inspection tells you whether there’s damage and, if there is, whether a repair is enough or a replacement makes more sense.
Stay off the roof and away from downed power lines. Look from the ground for missing shingles, dented gutters or flashing and fallen branches, check ceilings and the attic for leaks, and take dated photos. Then call us for a free inspection — we document any damage and can guide you through an insurance claim.
Yes. We document storm damage with drone photos, meet with your adjuster, review the scope of loss and submit supplements for items missed in the first assessment. See our storm damage & insurance claims page or our step-by-step claim guide.
Shelby roofing did a great job repairing our roof after storm damage. The work was excellent, and the customer service was outstanding throughout the entire process.
Shelby Roofing Company was awesome to work with. It started as just a roof job, but they pointed out some other issues and took care of everything professionally. Great team.
Needed some work done due to a loose fascia from the wind. Received a quote from Miguel and he came out 2 days later to fix it. Quick, clean, professional. Highly recommend.
We’ll check your roof, gutters and flashing with a drone, document anything we find and tell you exactly what it needs — even if the answer is nothing.
