When a storm tears open your roof, the first job is to keep water out of your home. R&R Roofing and Construction responds to storm-damaged roofs across the Tulsa metro with fast temporary protection, a full inspection, and a plain plan to make lasting repairs. We have served Oklahoma property owners since 2009, and we are a licensed and insured roofing contractor working under Oklahoma license #80007251.
Oklahoma sits in one of the hardest-hit parts of the country for hail, high wind, and sudden downpours. A single spring storm can strip shingles, dent metal, and drive rain under your roof deck in minutes. This page explains what to do right after a storm, how we help, and what happens next.
What to do first after storm damage
Your safety comes before the roof. Stay off a wet or damaged roof and keep clear of any downed power lines. Once it is safe, you can take a few steps that protect your home and make the repair process smoother.
From the ground, look for missing shingles, bent flashing, or debris on the roof and in the yard. Inside, check ceilings and upper walls for fresh stains or drips. If water is coming in, move furniture aside and place buckets to catch it. Take clear photos and note the date and time, because that record helps later when you file a claim.
After that, call a roofer you can reach. We answer storm calls from Tulsa homeowners and business owners and walk you through the next steps over the phone before we ever arrive.
How R&R responds to a damaged roof
Our first goal on site is to stop the leak. When a roof is open to the weather, we install temporary protection such as tarping or board-up work over the damaged area. This buys time so that water stops spreading through your attic, insulation, and drywall while the full repair is planned.
Once your home is protected, we carry out a full inspection of the roof, flashing, gutters, and any interior damage. We document what we find with photos and written notes. That record gives you an honest picture of the damage and becomes useful support if you decide to file an insurance claim.
We do not push work you do not need. If the damage is limited, we tell you that. If the roof needs a larger repair or a full replacement, we explain why, show you the evidence, and let you decide.
Common types of storm damage in Oklahoma
Different storms leave different marks. Knowing what to look for helps you catch trouble before it turns into a bigger repair bill.
Hail damage
Hail knocks the protective granules off asphalt shingles and can leave soft bruises in the mat underneath. That damage is easy to miss from the ground, but it shortens the life of the roof and can lead to leaks over time. Hail also dents metal roofing, gutters, and vents.
Wind damage
Strong Oklahoma wind lifts and curls shingles, tears them off, and pulls at the flashing around chimneys and vents. Even when the roof still looks whole, loose shingles let wind-driven rain reach the roof deck.
Water intrusion
Once the outer layer is broken, rain finds its way in. Water stains on the ceiling, a musty smell in the attic, or peeling paint on upper walls all point to a leak that started on the roof.
Working through your insurance claim
Many storm repairs are covered by a homeowner policy, and R&R offers insurance claim assistance to make that process easier. We document the damage with photos and notes, and we can meet your insurance adjuster on the roof so that nothing gets missed. Our aim is an honest scope of the real damage, not an inflated one.

Serving Tulsa and the surrounding towns
We respond to storm calls throughout the Tulsa metro and nearby Oklahoma communities. That includes homeowners in Broken Arrow and Owasso, along with the smaller towns around them. Because we are based locally at 7136 S Yale Ave, Suite 300 in Tulsa, we know the weather patterns here and the kinds of damage that follow each storm season.
Financing options are available for larger repairs, so a storm does not have to strain your budget all at once. We can talk through those options during your inspection.
Why property owners call R&R after a storm
We have worked on Oklahoma roofs for more than 15 years, and we are a GAF Certified contractor. That background matters when a storm hits, because you want a company that knows how to protect a home quickly and repair it correctly the first time. We handle the job from the first tarp through the final cleanup, and we treat your property with care from start to finish.
Storm damage rarely improves on its own. The sooner a damaged roof is inspected and protected, the less it tends to cost in the long run. If a recent storm has left you worried about your roof, reach out and we will take a look.
