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 documented construction report the same day whenever the weather allows us on a roof safely.

If you need to file an insurance claim, we document every impact with photos and measurements you can share with your insurance company. That construction record gives the homeowner and carrier clear evidence to evaluate. Storm chasers who knock on your door after a storm can't do that. They're in Omaha by Tuesday. We're ten minutes from your house and we sign a workmanship warranty with our name on it.

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