After a major storm, the path from damage to a repaired home can feel overwhelming — especially when insurance is involved. Compass Exteriors has 20+ years inspecting and repairing storm-damaged exteriors across Minneapolis, and we'll guide you through every step.
Types of Storm Damage We Repair
Hail Damage
Hail is the most common insurance claim in Minnesota. It knocks granules off shingles, creates impact fractures that aren't always visible from the ground, and dents metal components. Even hail that doesn't puncture a roof can significantly reduce its remaining lifespan. On siding, hail creates dents, cracks, and holes that compromise your home's weather protection.
Wind Damage
Gale-force winds (39+ mph) can lift shingles, break seal strips, and expose the roof deck. Partially detached shingles act as wind scoops, making the problem worse with each storm. We repair and replace damaged shingles and address any underlying deck damage.
Water & Ice Dam Damage
Ice dams form when heat from inside your home melts snow on the roof, which refreezes at the cold eaves. The ice backs up water underneath shingles, leading to leaks and ceiling damage. We repair the immediate damage and help you address the underlying insulation and ventilation issues that caused it.
Debris Damage
Fallen branches and storm-driven debris puncture roofs and siding. We assess the full extent of damage — often more than what's visible at the surface — and provide complete repairs.
