Hail Damage Roof Replacement in Florence, KY
Home off Tiburon Dr: Hail Claim, Rotted Decking Replaced
Hail hits on the vents and flashing confirmed the damage on this Florence home, and water had already stained the ceiling drywall inside. Insurance paid for a full roof replacement. During tear-off we found rotted OSB roof sheathing: the old roof had no ice and water shield in the valleys or at the eaves. We replaced the rotted OSB, installed ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys, added synthetic underlayment and finished the roof in CertainTeed Landmark PRO Shenandoah.
Why Florence Roofs Need Ice and Water Shield in Valleys and at Eaves
Valleys carry the most water on a roof, and eaves are where ice dams form in Northern Kentucky winters. Without a self-sealing ice and water membrane under the shingles, water that backs up or gets driven under the shingles reaches the wood deck. Over time that rots the OSB, as it did on the Tiburon Dr home. When we replace a roof, we install ice and water shield at the eaves and in the valleys, with synthetic underlayment over the rest of the deck.
Hail and Wind Damage Roof Replacement in Florence, KY
Stone and Brick Two-Story: Insurance Claim for Hail and Wind
Hail and wind damaged the roof on this stone and brick two-story in Florence. We documented creased shingles and marked the hail hits on the vents and ridge metal in green chalk, and the insurance claim paid for a full roof replacement. Tarps protected the siding and landscaping during tear-off. We then installed CertainTeed RoofRunner underlayment with ice and water shield in the valleys and finished the roof in CertainTeed Landmark PRO Prairie Wood.

Florence Roofing Questions and Answers
Do you handle wind and hail insurance roof claims in Florence, KY?
Yes. We inspect the roof, photograph and document wind or hail damage, and provide estimates, measurements and photos you can share with your insurance company. Your carrier makes the coverage decision. Recent Florence insurance replacements include a brick colonial, an office building off Burlington Rd and a home off Tiburon Dr.
What is ice and water shield and does my Florence roof need it?
Ice and water shield is a self-adhering waterproof membrane installed under the shingles at eaves and in valleys, where ice dams and heavy runoff push water under shingles. On a Florence home off Tiburon Dr, the old roof had none in the valleys or at the eaves, and the OSB sheathing had rotted. We replaced the rotted OSB and installed ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys.
What happens if you find rotted decking during my roof replacement?
We show you photos, replace the damaged OSB sheathing so the new shingles are fastened to solid wood, and note it in your project documentation.
Do you repair roofs after a tree falls on a house?
Yes. On a Florence ranch where a tree came down on the right side of the home, we repaired the roof framing, installed a new chimney cricket and replaced the roof with CertainTeed Landmark PRO in Moire Black.
Do you work on commercial roofs in Florence?
Yes. We install, maintain and repair commercial roofs, including flat and low-slope roofs, for Florence businesses, and we plan the work to keep disruptions to your daily operations low. Recently we replaced the shingle roof on an office building off Burlington Rd after wind damage.
What shingles do you install?
Our standard shingle is CertainTeed Landmark PRO, an architectural shingle. Algae-resistant (AR) shingles such as Landmark PRO help prevent the dark streaks that grow on shaded, humid roofs. Recent Florence colors include Moire Black, Espresso and Shenandoah. The exact shingle and color go into your written proposal before any work begins.
Who handles building permits for roofing in Florence?
The Boone County Building Department in Burlington handles building permits and inspections for Florence, as well as Union and Walton. Its number is (859) 334-2218. The county says a permit is needed for work that affects a home's structure, safety or mechanical systems, so check with the county if your roof job includes structural repairs.
Can I finance a new roof in Florence?
Yes. Fortress Solutions offers access to roofing financing through Improvifi, subject to lender approval. See our Florence roof financing guide for how it works.
What happens during a free roof inspection?
We inspect your roof, take photos of any storm or wind damage, worn shingles or flashing problems, and walk you through what we found. If you need work, you get a clear written proposal with materials, color, scope and price. Inspections are free, including after a storm or before you buy or sell a home.
Do you install siding in Florence, KY?
Yes. Along with roofing, Fortress Solutions installs and repairs siding on Florence homes. Pairing new siding with a roof replacement means the flashing where the roof meets the walls can be handled in the same project. Ask about both on one free roof inspection at (859) 328-6338.
How do you protect my house and yard during a roof replacement?
We cover siding and landscaping with tarps and debris protection before tear-off, as on a recent Florence hail and wind replacement.
