Emergency Assessments for Terry Homes
Active leaks, a breached wall or a tree on the roof call for quick temporary storm protection. We tarp, board up and dry-in where needed and document the condition for your insurer. For storms without active leaks, we still recommend a professional inspection within a few days, since small openings can let water in during the next rain.
Damage We Repair Most Often
- Missing or creased shingles and torn ridge caps, the most common wind damage we find
- Hail-bruised roofing and dented soft metals
- Cracked or blown-off vinyl siding and damaged trim
- Detached or crushed gutters and downspouts
- Broken window glass and failed seals
Repairing to a Stronger Standard
A restoration is the right time to improve details that help in Central Mississippi storms:
- Impact-resistant shingles rated for hail, and architectural shingles with higher wind ratings than 3-tab
- Enhanced nailing patterns and sealed starter strips at eaves and rakes
- Synthetic underlayment and ice-and-water membrane in valleys and around penetrations
- Fiber cement siding in place of thin vinyl
- Heavier gutter hangers set closer together
Some insurers offer discounts for impact-rated roofs; ask your agent. Read more about choosing roofing in our asphalt vs metal roofing comparison.

Common Questions
How quickly does storm damage need to be repaired?
Anything letting water in should be covered right away. Permanent repairs follow once the damage is documented and, if you are filing a claim, the scope is approved.
Do you work with insurance companies on Terry storm claims?
We help you document the damage, can meet the adjuster on site and supply photos and measurements. Coverage decisions are made by your insurer.
Can my home be made more storm-resistant during repairs?
Yes. Impact-rated shingles, better underlayment, upgraded fastening and fiber cement siding are common upgrades. If your insurer covers a like-for-like repair, you pay only the difference for the upgrade.
Do I need a temporary tarp before the adjuster visits?
If water can get in, yes. Insurers generally expect reasonable steps to prevent further damage, and the tarp work is documented for your claim.
