Storm Damage Roof Repair in Central Illinois

Central Illinois storms can be unpredictable—bringing high winds, hail, and heavy rain that can damage your roof without you even realizing it. Even minor storm damage can quickly turn into leaks, structural issues, and costly repairs if left unchecked.

At Route 66 Roofs, we provide free storm damage inspections, insurance claim support, and expert roof repair or replacement. And if your home has solar panels, we’re one of the few companies that understands how to properly handle both your roof and solar system together.

Storm damage isn’t always obvious from the ground. After a storm, watch for:

• Missing or lifted shingles 
• Granules collecting in gutters or downspouts 
• Dents in gutters, vents, or flashing 
• Cracked or bruised shingles from hail impact 
• Water stains on ceilings or walls 
• Leaks or moisture in your attic 
• Damage around solar panel mounting areas 

If you notice any of these—or if your neighborhood was hit by hail or strong winds—it’s time for a professional inspection.

 Hail can cause serious damage that shortens the life of your roof, even if it doesn’t leak right away.

We inspect for:

• Impact marks and bruising on shingles 
• Granule loss that exposes underlying materials 
• Damage to vents, flashing, and roof accessories 
• Gutter and downspout dents 

We document everything clearly so you have what you need if you file an insurance claim.

Strong winds can lift, crease, or completely remove shingles—leaving your roof vulnerable.

We look for:

• Lifted or creased shingles 
• Missing shingles or exposed nail lines 
• Ridge cap and flashing damage 
• Areas where wind has compromised the roof system 

Even small wind damage can lead to major leaks over time if not addressed.

Solar Homes Require a Specialized Roofer

If your home has solar panels, your roof is not like everyone else’s.

Storm damage can impact:

• The roofing system underneath the panels 
• Flashing and mounting points 
• Structural integrity around the solar system 

Choosing the wrong contractor can lead to:

• Improper removal or reinstallation 
• Roof leaks after work is completed 
• Voided warranties or system issues 

At Route 66 Solar & Roofs, we understand how roofing and solar systems work together. We help ensure your entire system is protected—so you don’t have to coordinate between multiple companies or risk costly mistakes.
