Recognizing the Warning Signs

Is Your Lely Roof Damaged After the Storm?

Storm damage isn't always immediately obvious from ground level. High winds can lift and tear shingles, leaving your roof deck exposed to moisture and creating entry points for water. Hail impacts create bruising and dents that compromise the protective granules on asphalt shingles, accelerating deterioration and voiding manufacturer warranties. Falling branches or flying debris can puncture the roofing membrane, allowing water to seep into your attic and walls. Many Lely homeowners don't realize the extent of their roof damage until leaks develop or interior staining becomes visible.

Beyond the visible damage, storm impacts can weaken the structural bonds between shingles and decking. What appears as minor cosmetic damage might indicate widespread wind uplift or hidden punctures throughout the roof system. Water intrusion from storm-damaged areas leads to mold growth, rotted decking, compromised insulation, and damaged ceilings. In Florida's climate, moisture problems escalate quickly. If your roof is over fifteen years old and has been through multiple storm seasons, the cumulative damage may warrant a full replacement rather than repairs.

Acting quickly after storm damage is essential for preventing secondary issues and preserving your insurance claim eligibility. Delaying your assessment and claim can complicate coverage, especially if another weather event occurs before repairs are made. Look for signs like missing or curled shingles, granule loss in gutters, dents on vents and flashing, water stains on ceilings, or daylight visible through the roof deck. If you observe any of these indicators following a storm in Lely, reaching out for a professional storm damage inspection protects your home and your investment.

Read what your neighbors have to say about their experience working with our team on storm damage roof replacement projects throughout Collier County.

      Our experience with Lely Roof Replacements was excellent. We were impressed with them beginning with our first interaction with Bobby (Sales). He was punctual, honest, and gave us options regarding various roofing materials. We opted for the metal 5V roof and are very very pleased with the product and the look - as he ensured we would be! The project started a few days ahead of schedule and was completed precisely when they said it would be. Ta'Riq, the supervisor on the job, was diligent and routinely updated us on progress throughout the installation. He narrated and shot multiple videos as he walked the roof and inspected the work of the crew. Ta' Riq's oversight and follow-up was impressive and appreciated. His entire crew was polite, efficient, and admittedly proud to work for Lely Roof Replacements. There are many roofing companies to choose from, but I can highly recommend Lely Roof Replacements - we were delighted with the work and what we felt was a very fair price.
      We recently had Lely Roof Replacements replace the roof on our home in south Naples, and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. From the start, they were on top of everything, providing me updates and photos at every stage so I knew exactly what was happening. There were a few unexpected repairs needed on the roof, during which Lely Roof Replacements provided constant communications, details and pictures before and after. Their crew very clean, in which we got complements from neighbors commenting on how clean the job site was. Highly recommend them.
      Lely Roof Replacements did an amazing job putting up our Christmas lights this year. Their team was prompt, professional and worked quickly to get the job done. Once they got started I decided I wanted more done than originally anticipated and they were happy to make it happen for me! I love the results and my kids are beyond thrilled with the Christmas spirit it provides! Thank you to an amazing team led by an amazing person Derric!
      Highly professional, detailed, thorough, and a pleasure to work with. Lely Roof Replacements staff, especially Karl Sheen and Nancy Thompson, made the job of replacing my entire roof easy and hassle free. They handled the insurance company expertly. The construction team was on time, they cleaned up afterwards, and the results are gorgeous! One small note: how many other roofing companies would start the job with a nice bottle of wine and a thank you note left on your doorstep?!
      Making those initial calls to a few roofing companies was somewhat scary. We had 4 appointments set and only 2 even showed up. One guy came and gave us a hand written quote without even getting up on the roof. Sean came on time, did a full inspection, and came back a couple days later to go over everything with us. Our roof was put on 3 week later and everything went according to plan! Sean was here in Naples for the installation and made sure everything was cleaned up when the crew was done. We are 100% happy and would recommend Lely Roof Replacements and Sean to anyone in need of a new roof!
      What a wonderful experience working with Lely Roof Replacements. Very professional, timely and a pleasure to work with. Always available to take calls. Would highly recommend them.
      I've heard all the Florida stories; needing a new roof immediately puts you into this nightmare of shifty contractors, unavailable products, long wait times, and broken promises, ugh. So I was prepared for the worst when Helene took some of our roof off. I did my due diligence; I checked with my city for licensed and approved contractors, I looked at google reviews, and I called the companies that made the tile and/or metal that I was considering putting on my roof to see who they recommended in my area. That's actually how I accidentally ended up finding Lely Roof Replacements-the tile company had sent me to a roofing company in Charlotte, NC instead of Charlotte County, FL. They were VERY confused when I called them, lol, but they strongly recommended Lely Roof Replacements, so I checked them out online and added them to my list of 3 companies to interview. Company #1 comes out and we get the hard-press-scare-you used car salesman sales tactics. This may work on the elderly, but it didn't sit well with us. Company #2 was solid but only sold aluminum metal roofs, which was our only option besides tile because we live on the ocean and if you look closely at the steel roof warranties they aren't so happy about coastal properties. Anyhoo, the aluminum roof was $25,000 more expensive than tile. For a 1700 sq ft house. Ouch. Company #3 was Lely Roof Replacements & Roofing. From the jump Bill was respectful, thoughtful, and asked a lot of good questions about what we wanted for a roof. He also went up on the roof and checked the existing damage from Helene. We told him we'd like three pricing options for tile, aluminum, and some fancy resin roofs out there that we were considering. His presentation was professional, quick, and balanced with the pro's and con's. One of the things we really liked was that their tile roofs are screwed on with stainless steel screws instead of nailed on with galvanized nails, which corrode and disintegrate in coastal areas in a few years. We also liked how detailed their price sheet was-we could see exactly how many stainless steel screws we were paying for. So we crossed our fingers and went with Lely Roof Replacements. Here's where the story really gets good-they consistently under-promised and over-performed. The tile I wanted was actually in stock, and instead of having to wait for months, it was on my roof within two weeks. The project manager, Ta' Riq, created a group text and consistently sent me live video updates FROM THE ROOF as they were working on it so when issues occurred I could make the decisions on what to do in real time rather than hearing about it later. Ta' Riq was also professional and consistent. We were prepared for what to expect with the tear off as Bill had gone over it with us very thoroughly. It was amazing how many people showed up, how fast they worked, and how nothing was damaged. The people working on the roof were also nice-when I was out walking our dog they'd wave to us from the roof lol. The materials that were promised in the contract were the materials that showed up on the roof. The underlayment of a tile roof is really what keeps your house dry, and I had done my homework about what kind I wanted (Owens Corning), and it was the same type Lely Roof Replacements recommended and installed. The teardown and dry-in was done in two days, and they hustled to get most of the roof on before we had a weird late season tropical storm. The next day they were back at it and had the roof done. All in all from signing the contract to the final approval from the city for a finished roof was about 2 weeks. That's freaking amazing. They were efficient, competent, and talented. My roof looks gorgeous. Our 27 year old house had its original roof on it and is surrounded by new, million dollar plus homes, and so we went from being "that house" to "look at THAT house so cute omg!" Again, I can't say enough good things about these folks and I'm still pinching myself that I have a beautiful roof and ZERO headaches about the entire process thanks to them.
      Bobby did an outstanding job helping me with my new tile roof. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy. He's hands down the best salesman I've dealt with-his communication was excellent and he kept me updated every step of the way. Couldn't be happier with the service and highly recommend asking for Bobby if you're looking at getting a roof!
      The company I work for hired Lely Roof Replacements and we had a great experience. Their team was professional, easy to work with, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. We truly appreciate their reliability and would definitely recommend them.
      Let me start by saying I have never felt compelled to write a google review. Having said that I have worked with dozens of contractors over the years and my experience with the Lely Roof Replacements team and Bill Demersky was the best experience ever. I contacted them 3 years ago to repair a leak on my 20+ year old tile roof on Marco. They did a great job on the repair but I was most impressed that Bill drove 7 hours round trip to a tile boneyard to match tile on a repair that was a less that $3000. Had another leak in a different spot this fall and decided to replace the roof. Bill gave me all the options on materials, worked with my design firm and we decided to go with the Worthouse metal tile. It turned out great but what was most important was the way Lely Roof Replacements managed the job. We live in Ohio so doing a remote project is always a bit tricky. The communication from Lely Roof Replacements is exemplary. Status updates we on time and they do a great job over communicating the step by step process. When on site they sent me multiple video updates daily of every step as well as real time calls from the roof while working. Everyone who worked at our house was professional, friendly, and communicative. Bill is always available on his cell by call or text. By far the best contractor I have ever worked with. I'm sure they are not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.
      Lely Roof Replacements fixed another roofing company's shoddy work. Another roofing company had completed installing our roof from a hurricane claim. While it looked great but lasted 3 years before a preventable leak occurred. That other company took shortcuts. My front bedroom ceiling became wet. I called the original company who (after much encouragement) came out and said they fixed it. A few months later the leak was even worse. I had to again repair the ceiling and walls. I recently learned of Lely Roof Replacements. When I called them, they came out and diagnosed the problem. They were reasonable with the price and took the extra effort to truly fix the situation. They were transparent and showed me the exact problem. They covered my roof right then to prevent further water intrusion and completed the repair within 2 days. No more leak. I recommend them with confidence. Great staff and great work.
      I never leave reviews. Ever. But Lely Roof Replacements saved me. I have an older home and needed a new roof and new roof deck. The other company was cheap. They ended up leaving me with a real mess. Lely Roof Replacements came in and fixed everything. It looks brand new. The crew is exceptional. The customer experience was phenomenal. I will never hire anyone for any work other than Lely Roof Replacements.
      I was SO pleased dealing with Nancy Thompson at Lely Roof Replacements!! She made the project so easy to deal with. The workmanship was wonderful and everyone was courteous. My new roof is perfect. Thank you for the wonderful job!!!
      I had a huge leak in my roof and Lely Roof Replacements rushed out to patch the issue immediately, saving my home from what would have been tons of water damage. Afterwards I got quotes from numerous local companies for a new roof and Lely Roof Replacements had competitive pricing and their people were great to work with so I went forward with them. It's been a year now and I didn't want to give them a review right away because I wanted to make sure the roof was good before giving them my seal of approval. Now I must say it's rained many times since I got my new roof and not a drop of water has entered my home. The roof looks great also. Would definitely recommend getting a new roof from Lely Roof Replacements.
      I don't even know where to begin! From the very first phone call to the initial meeting and throughout the entire process, I can't say enough about how AMAZING Bobby Rodgers and the Lely Roof Replacements Team were. The communication was outstanding - from our project manager who was up on the roof sending videos of the progress, to being included in a text chain with Derrick (the owner) and all parties involved right from the start. It gave us peace of mind knowing that if there was ever a question or concern, we could reach anyone immediately. From the tear-off, to completion, to the final clean-up - everything was absolutely TOP NOTCH. Thank you, Bobby Rodgers and Lely Roof Replacements, for such a GREAT EXPERIENCE.
      Bobby and Lely Roof Replacements were great to work with. Bobby in particular took a personal interest in our roofing project from start to finish. Final result awesome!
      5 stars to Lely Roof Replacements! Everyone involved from sales with Bill Demersky, Nancy Thompson, the owner Sean Dunn, to the roofer and gutter installers, all were polite, professional and organized. Special shoutout for Tariq who project managed the roof installation and kept me informed with pictures and texts throughout the process. Cost was on par with 2 other estimates but with Lely Roof Replacements, I felt relaxed and trusted the job would be done on time and as contracted. Job well done by professionals! Thank you!
      It wasn't a big job or huge opportunity, but Lely Roof Replacements came right over to make repairs to my roof when I was in need. The technician was on-time, friendly, reassuring and jumped right on the repairs. He did a very thorough inspection. I was very happy how quickly Lely Roof Replacements took care of my roof repairs.
      Sales process was informative. Start of the project was timely. Staff personnel were very nice and helpful. Ta'Riq was a very good project supervisor. And, it looks great!
      Lely Roof Replacements is an amazing company that not only provides exceptional quality in their work, but gives back to the community, St. Jude's Research and so much more! So here is my story I have to share. I have been a police officer for over 30 years and I have recently retired. I spent my last 5 years of service as a School Resource Officer in SWFL. A few months ago I reached out to the owner of Lely Roof Replacements, Derric Stull, for a roof quote. I knew Derric and his family through the school that I was assigned to protect. My roof is over 20 years old and I needed to replace it. Without my knowledge, Derric, nominated me for a roof replacement program for First Responders with Owens Corning, who is also partnered with The Gary Sinise Foundation. I was selected as the first recipient for this newly launched program! My new roof was just completed and my family and I couldn't be happier! All of the Lely Roof Replacements family is amazing and I would highly recommend them. A special thanks to the installation crew, Derric Stull, Sean Dunn, Nancy Thompson and Bill Demersky. You were all very kind and always professional throughout the entire process. Lely Roof Replacements, are truly a blessing in my life!

      Common Questions About Storm Damage Roofing

      Storm Damage Roof Replacement FAQs

      Lely Roof Replacements understands that storm damage raises many questions about the replacement process, insurance coverage, and what to expect. We've compiled answers to the most common concerns from Lely homeowners facing roof storm damage. Our experienced team is always available to provide additional guidance and help you make informed decisions about protecting your property.

      Safety comes first. If you suspect roof damage after a storm, avoid going onto the roof yourself. From ground level or through windows, look for obvious signs like missing shingles, visible holes, or debris. Take photographs from a safe distance for documentation purposes. If you notice active leaking, place buckets to catch water and move valuables away from affected areas. Contact your insurance company to report the damage and then reach out to a licensed roofing contractor for a professional inspection. If significant damage has compromised your roof's weather-tightness, ask about emergency tarping services to prevent further water intrusion while you arrange for a complete assessment and replacement. Acting quickly helps prevent secondary damage and ensures your claim is filed within the required timeframe specified by your insurance policy.
      Several factors determine whether storm damage requires full replacement or targeted repairs. A professional inspection examines the extent of damage, the age of your existing roof, and the overall condition of the roofing system. If storm damage affects a large percentage of the roof surface, replacement often makes more sense than extensive repairs. Hail damage that has compromised shingle integrity across multiple sections typically warrants replacement. Wind damage that has lifted or torn shingles in scattered areas might be repairable if the roof is relatively new and the underlying structure remains sound. However, if your roof is already approaching the end of its expected lifespan, replacing the entire system provides better long-term value and often receives better insurance coverage. A qualified roofing contractor can assess your specific situation, provide honest recommendations, and help you understand which approach makes the most sense for your property and budget.
      Most standard homeowner's insurance policies cover roof damage caused by sudden weather events like windstorms, hail, hurricanes, and falling trees or debris. Coverage typically includes the replacement of damaged roofing materials and necessary repairs to underlying structures. However, policies vary in their specific terms, deductibles, and coverage limits. Some policies cover full replacement cost while others provide actual cash value, which factors in depreciation based on the roof's age. Insurance generally does not cover damage from neglected maintenance or pre-existing conditions. The key to maximizing coverage is documenting damage thoroughly, filing your claim promptly, and working with a roofing contractor experienced in insurance claims. Professional documentation including photographs, detailed damage reports, and accurate estimates strengthens your claim. Many roofing companies offer assistance throughout the claims process, communicating directly with adjusters and advocating for appropriate coverage based on the actual scope of necessary repairs.
      The timeline for storm damage roof replacement depends on several variables including the size of your roof, the extent of damage, weather conditions, material availability, and the complexity of your roof design. Most residential roof replacements can be completed within several days once work begins. The process includes removing the damaged roofing system, inspecting and repairing any structural damage to the decking, installing new underlayment, applying the roofing material, and completing flashing and trim work. However, the overall timeline from initial contact to project completion involves additional steps. After your first call, an inspection is scheduled to assess damage and create an estimate. If insurance is involved, the adjuster's visit and claim approval add time to the process. Material ordering, permit acquisition, and scheduling with your contractor also factor into the timeline. Your roofing company should provide a realistic schedule and keep you informed about any delays due to weather or material availability.
      Florida's climate demands roofing materials that withstand high winds, heavy rain, intense sun exposure, and potential hail impacts. Impact-resistant asphalt shingles rated Class 4 offer excellent protection against hail damage and are designed to resist tearing in high winds when properly installed. These shingles often qualify for insurance discounts due to their superior durability. Metal roofing systems provide exceptional wind resistance and longevity, with standing seam designs that interlock securely and resist uplift. Metal roofs also reflect heat, improving energy efficiency in Florida's hot climate. For tile roofing, both concrete and clay options offer excellent durability and wind resistance when installed according to Florida building codes. The best material for your home depends on your budget, architectural style, and specific location. A qualified roofing contractor familiar with Florida's building codes and wind load requirements can recommend materials rated for your area's wind zone and help you select options that balance storm resistance, aesthetics, and cost considerations.
      Emergency roof tarping involves securing heavy-duty waterproof tarps over damaged sections of your roof to prevent water intrusion while you arrange for permanent repairs or replacement. This temporary protection is necessary when storm damage has created openings in your roof that expose your home's interior to the elements. Tarping becomes critical after significant shingle loss, punctures from falling debris, or any damage that has compromised the roof's ability to shed water. Proper tarping involves more than simply laying a tarp over the damage. Professional installation includes securing the tarp to undamaged sections of the roof with fasteners and lumber, ensuring adequate overlap to prevent water penetration, and confirming the tarp remains secure in subsequent weather events. Most roofing contractors offer emergency tarping services and can respond quickly when called. Many insurance policies cover the cost of emergency tarping as part of your claim since it prevents additional damage to your home's interior, which would increase the overall claim amount. Tarping provides essential short-term protection but should not be considered a long-term solution.
