Nebraska storms can strike without warning. Our 24/7 emergency response team is ready to protect your home from hail, wind, and water damage.
Nebraska's location in "Tornado Alley" and the Great Plains means Lincoln homeowners face some of the most severe weather in the country. Hail storms with baseball-sized hail, straight-line winds exceeding 80 mph, heavy snow loads, and extreme temperature fluctuations all take a toll on roofing systems. Storm damage can range from obvious destruction to subtle damage that leads to leaks months later.
At KBD Roofing, we've helped hundreds of Lincoln families recover from storm damage. We understand the stress of dealing with property damage, navigating insurance claims, and making urgent repair decisions. Our storm damage specialists provide immediate response for emergency situations, thorough damage assessments with documentation for insurance, and complete restoration services that return your home to pre-storm condition—often with an upgraded, more protective roof replacement.
The most important thing after storm damage is acting quickly. Exposed roof decking, lifted shingles, and compromised flashing allow water intrusion that rapidly multiplies damage. A $5,000 roof repair can become a $20,000 nightmare if interior water damage, mold growth, and structural deterioration occur. We provide emergency tarping to protect your home immediately, then work with your insurance company to get full coverage for permanent repairs.
We're not storm chasers who disappear after the check clears—we're your local Lincoln roofer who will be here years from now to honor warranties and maintain your roof. While out-of-state contractors flood the area after major storms, we live and work in this community year-round. Our reputation depends on quality work and long-term relationships, not maximizing insurance claims and moving to the next town. Learn more about our complete residential roofing services.
Lincoln experiences distinct storm patterns that cause different types of roof damage throughout the year:
Peak hail season. Supercell thunderstorms produce large hail that causes widespread shingle damage. High winds lift edges and tear off sections.
Severe thunderstorms. Damaging straight-line winds, heavy rain, and occasional large hail. Heat causes aging shingles to crack.
Wind damage season. Strong frontal systems bring high winds. Falling tree branches common. Best time for preventive repairs before winter.
Ice dam problems. Snow accumulation, ice dams forcing water under shingles. Freeze-thaw cycles crack sealant and flashing.
Even if you don't see obvious damage, storms can cause hidden issues that lead to leaks later. Our free inspection includes roof, gutters, and exterior assessment with detailed photos.
