The Storm That Changed Everything

A Hailstorm That Left Nothing Untouched

When a hailstorm barrels through with stones the size of golf balls—or worse, softballs—it doesn’t just make noise; it leaves a path of destruction. That’s exactly what Bonnie faced. Her roof took the brunt of the impact, with visible damage that immediately raised concerns about leaks, structural integrity, and insurance claims.

Rather than panic, Bonnie took action.

“I called McRoof and they came right out to do an inspection. They confirmed what I suspected—that the roof was damaged.”

Fast Inspection, Clear Next Steps

One of the key advantages Bonnie experienced was speed of service. Within a short timeframe, the McRoof team was on-site and on the roof, documenting the damage with professionalism and precision. There was no confusion, no pressure—just clear communication and honest answers about what needed to happen next.

Why Trust Matters When Choosing a Roofer

Avoiding Storm Chasers and Empty Promises

After a major storm, the last thing a homeowner needs is uncertainty. Bonnie knew she didn’t want to rely on a random company passing through offering fast fixes. She wanted a roofing company with a track record, real customer reviews, and the ability to stick around if something went wrong down the line.

“I wanted someone I could trust and go back to if there was a problem. And they were there.”

This wasn’t about getting the cheapest bid. It was about finding professionals who cared about the result—and the homeowner.

Reviews That Matched the Experience

Bonnie did her homework. She read reviews, checked for licenses and insurance, and looked for a company that prioritized service over sales. Everything she read about McRoof proved to be true—from their punctuality to their follow-through.

Criteria Bonnie Looked ForWhy It Mattered
Licensed and insured rooferEnsures accountability and protection
Positive customer reviewsValidates past performance
Clear communication and processBuilds trust and reduces stress

Choosing the right roofer made all the difference. What could have been a stressful and overwhelming recovery became a smooth, transparent process—because trust was earned, not assumed.

The Insurance Process: Advocacy That Makes a Difference

Side-by-Side With the Adjuster

When it came time for the insurance company to assess the damage, Bonnie didn’t have to face the adjuster alone. A member of the McRoof team joined her and the adjuster on-site to walk the roof and ensure the full scope of the damage was acknowledged.

“Scotty came back with the adjuster, went up on the roof with them, and made sure they came to an agreement on what the damage was.”

This extra step may seem small, but it makes a massive difference. By having an experienced roofing expert advocate during the inspection, Bonnie avoided underestimations or missed line items—two common issues that can lead to costly out-of-pocket surprises.

Transparency Throughout the Claim

There were no unexpected surprises, no scope changes without explanation. Bonnie had full visibility throughout the process. When additional work was needed, it wasn’t hidden—it was explained clearly, and she approved it in advance.


Customer Service That Exceeds Expectations

Prompt, Professional, Personable

Bonnie’s experience with McRoof wasn’t just about shingles and paperwork—it was about people showing up when they said they would, following through, and delivering on promises. In an industry where responsiveness can often lag, McRoof stood out by being consistently communicative.

“They were always prompt for their appointments. They followed up with us, made sure everything was done correctly.”

Every visit ended with a check-in. Every question was answered. And even after the roof was completed, the team returned to ensure satisfaction—because the job isn’t done when the last nail is driven. It’s done when the homeowner feels safe, supported, and confident in their roof.
