Our Emergency & Storm Damage Services in Speedway
Storm Damage Repair
Speedway’s spring storm corridor delivers hail and wind damage that hits hardest on the low-slope roofs common in our post-WWII housing stock. Because many of these 1940s-1960s bungalows and ranches have original low-slope roofs with multiple shingle layers hiding old moisture damage, storm damage often reveals advanced deck rot that isn’t visible until tear-off, making emergency tarping and Roof Replacement & Installation in Speedway more common here than in nearby neighborhoods with newer roofs. We assess the full scope, quote upfront, and complete most repairs in a single visit when possible.
Emergency Tarp
Water coming through the ceiling doesn’t wait for business hours. Our Emergency & Storm Damage team provides same-day tarping to stop active leaks and protect your home’s interior. In Speedway, this service carries extra weight in March and April, when homeowners preparing properties for Indy 500 rental season can’t afford a visible, leaking roof that turns away paying guests. We tarp fast, document everything for your insurance, and schedule permanent repairs without delay.
Insurance Claims
Navigating an insurance claim after storm damage is frustrating, especially when you’re also worried about lost rental income. We work directly with your adjuster, provide photo documentation from your actual roof, and explain the damage in plain language that helps your claim move forward. Our familiarity with Speedway’s older housing stock means we can advocate effectively for full tear-offs when three layers of shingles and hidden deck rot make patching insufficient.
Wind Damage
Central Indiana’s spring thunderstorms can lift ridge caps, tear flashing, and strip shingles from aging roofs. On Speedway’s low-pitch ranch homes, wind-driven rain finds every gap. We inspect for both obvious damage and the secondary issues - lifted fasteners, compromised underlayment, water stains in the attic - that cheaper repairs often miss.

For storm-damaged roofs requiring full replacement, we regularly specify GAF Timberline HDZ and CertainTeed Landmark shingles - both proven in Indiana’s freeze-thaw climate and available in colors that blend with Speedway’s established neighborhoods. We also work with Atlas and Tamko products when the job calls for them. No substitutions without your approval. The brand on your estimate is the brand on your roof.
Common Emergency & Storm Damage Problems We See in Speedway Homes
- Hidden deck rot under multi-layer shingles. Common in post-WWII bungalows and ranches, this damage only surfaces during tear-off, turning what looked like a simple repair into a deck replacement that adds time and cost but can’t be skipped.
- Ice dam damage on low-pitch roofs during freeze-thaw cycles. Water backs up under shingles, seeps into decking, and sits unnoticed until spring rain reveals interior stains - often requiring emergency tarping while we assess the full scope.
- Race-week rental pressure causing rushed, incomplete repairs. Fly-by-night contractors who don’t understand Speedway’s housing stock miss underlying damage, fix the visible problem, and leave homeowners with repeat leaks and second emergency calls - sometimes during the rental period itself.
- Hail strikes on aging shingles with brittle matting. Shingles past 20 years lose flexibility; hail that would bounce off newer material cracks through to the underlayment, creating entry points for water that expand with every spring storm.

Most policies cover full replacement when storm damage compromises the roof system, even with multiple layers, provided the damage is documented properly. We photograph every layer during tear-off and work with your adjuster to justify the scope. After an April hail storm, we tarped a 1952 ranch on Crawfordsville Road where the homeowner was frantic about losing race-week rental income. Our tear-off revealed three layers of shingles over rotted decking from decades of ice dam seepage. We replaced the deck with new OSB, installed CertainTeed Landmark shingles, and added our Gutters & Accessories in Speedway, restoring the roof just in time for the Indy 500.
