Storm & Hail Damage in Des Moines, Iowa

Des Moines sees some of the most violent storm weather in Iowa. The August 2020 derecho ripped 100+ mph winds through every neighborhood from Beaverdale to the East Village. Spring 2023 brought a hail line that peppered roofs from Gray's Lake down through the South Side. When the weather turns, Des Moines homeowners need a roofer who lives here, knows the building stock, and sticks around after the storm clears.

Bakeris Roofing has been inspecting and repairing storm damage in Des Moines since 1990. We've worked on the century-old Victorians in Sherman Hill, the post-war ranches around Merle Hay, and the newer builds on the far South Side. Every one of those homes has its own quirks, and 36 years of Des Moines roofs has taught us where to look first.

After a hail or wind event, the damage is usually not visible from the street. Bruised shingles, granule loss in downspouts, dented gutter aprons, torn pipe boots, and cracked flashing are the real tells. We document every finding with photos, measure the impact diameters, and hand you a claim-ready report the same day whenever the weather allows us on a roof safely.

If you need to file an insurance claim, we meet your adjuster on site, walk the roof with them, and make sure nothing gets missed. That on-site meeting is the single biggest reason Des Moines claims get approved cleanly. Storm chasers who knock on your door after a storm cannot do that — they're in Omaha by Tuesday. We're ten minutes from your house and we sign a lifetime workmanship warranty with our name on it.

Emergency tarping is available same-day across Des Moines when interior leaks start. We're licensed, insured, Owens Corning Platinum Preferred, and Google Screened. Call (515) 967-8199 or request a free inspection and we'll be on your roof fast.
