Storm Damage Repair in Northeast Oklahoma
Hail, Wind, and Tornado Damage Restored by a Local General Contractor
Oklahoma led the nation in 2024 with 151 confirmed tornadoes and 767 hailstorms. When a storm tears through your property, you need a contractor who can assess the full damage, coordinate your insurance claim, and rebuild everything that was affected. Shea Construction handles storm damage restoration from the first tarp to the final walkthrough across the Green Country region. Roof, siding, windows, gutters, fascia, structural framing, interior water damage, and every finish detail.
Storm Damage Restoration for Northeast Oklahoma Homes and Businesses
Oklahoma homeowners pay an average of $4,651 per year to insure a $300,000 home, more than double the national average. Insurance premiums jumped 24% in 2025 alone. That cost reflects the reality of living in one of the most storm-active regions in the country. Severe hail, straight-line winds, and tornadoes cause widespread property damage across Mayes, Rogers, Tulsa, Cherokee, Wagoner, Muskogee, Delaware, Craig, and Nowata Counties every season.
Shea Construction is headquartered in Salina, Oklahoma, and serves more than 30 cities across the Green Country region. We handle storm damage restoration as a full-service general contractor, not a roofing-only company and not a storm chaser passing through. We assess all affected components (roof, siding, windows, gutters, fascia, structural framing, interior), document the damage for your insurance carrier, and rebuild everything under one contract.
The Oklahoma Attorney General’s office warns homeowners after every major storm to verify contractors before hiring. Storm-chasing crews target damaged neighborhoods with low bids, collect deposits, and either do substandard work or don’t come back at all. Shea Construction is local, licensed, insured ($1M+ general liability), and we back every project with a 1-year warranty on workmanship. Our phone number is the same before and after storm season: (918) 944-1263.
Signs of Storm Damage to Check After Severe Weather
Dented, Missing, or Cracked Shinglescked, Stained, or Missing
Hail impacts leave circular dents in asphalt shingles that crack the shingle mat and loosen granules. Wind lifts shingles at the edges, breaks the seal strip, and can tear entire sections off the roof. After a storm, check for missing shingles, exposed underlayment, and granule buildup in gutters and downspouts. Even damage that looks minor from the ground can compromise the roof’s ability to keep water out.
Dented or Displaced Siding, Gutters, and Fascia
Hail dents vinyl and metal siding. Wind pulls sections loose from the house. Gutters get bent, knocked off hangers, or filled with debris. Fascia boards crack from impact. If any exterior component is displaced or damaged, moisture can reach the sheathing and framing behind it. Check all four sides of the house, not just the side that faced the storm.
Cracked or Broken Windows
Large hail and wind-blown debris crack window panes and damage window frames. Even if the glass didn’t break, check the seals and frames for impact marks. A compromised window seal allows moisture infiltration and reduces energy efficiency. Broken windows need to be boarded and replaced as soon as possible to prevent interior water damage.
Water Stains on Ceilings or Walls After the Storm
If you see water stains, drips, or wet spots on interior ceilings or walls after a storm, the roof or exterior envelope has been breached. Water is entering the attic or wall cavity and will cause further damage to insulation, drywall, and framing if not addressed. Document the stains with photos and report them to your insurance carrier immediately.
Fallen Trees, Limbs, or Structural Impacts
Trees and large limbs that fall on the roof, siding, or other structures cause immediate structural damage and create openings for water. Don’t attempt to remove trees from the roof yourself. The structure may be compromised underneath. Call for a professional assessment and emergency tarping to prevent additional damage before the tree is removed.
Types of Storm Damage We Repair
Full roof replacement, partial roof repair, and emergency tarping for hail, wind, and tornado-damaged roofs. We install asphalt shingles and metal roofing, both through insurance restoration and out-of-pocket replacement. We document all roof damage for your adjuster, including impact patterns, granule loss, exposed decking, and flashing failures. We partner with Wheeler Metals for metal roofing materials.
Siding replacement (vinyl, fiber cement, metal), window replacement through our partnership with Gerkin Windows & Doors, gutter repair and replacement, fascia and soffit repair, and exterior trim work. We match existing materials when repairing sections and provide full replacement when the damage is too widespread for spot repairs.
Tornado and high-wind damage can compromise roof trusses, wall framing, load-bearing walls, and foundation connections. We assess structural damage, coordinate with licensed structural engineers when needed, and handle the framing repair and rebuild. This is the level of damage that separates a roofing company from a general contractor. We rebuild the structure, not just the surface.
When the roof or exterior is breached, water gets inside. Damaged drywall, stained ceilings, swollen flooring, wet insulation, and mold growth are common results. We handle the full interior rebuild: drywall replacement, flooring installation, painting, trim, and any mechanical repairs needed for damaged electrical, plumbing, or HVAC components.
Benefits of Choosing a Local Restoration Contractor
Every Component Repaired Under One Contract
Storms damage roofs, siding, windows, gutters, fascia, structural framing, and interiors simultaneously. Hiring a roofing company for the roof, a siding company for the siding, and a drywall company for the interior creates three contracts, three schedules, and three points of failure. Shea Construction manages the entire restoration under one contract with one project manager and one timeline.
We Handle the Insurance Process With You
We inspect the damage, document every affected component with photos and measurements, provide a detailed repair scope for the adjuster, meet the adjuster on site, and file supplements when the approved scope doesn’t cover the full extent of the damage. When the claim is settled, we execute the rebuild. You focus on your family. We focus on the claim and the construction.
Based in Salina. Not Passing Through.
The Better Business Bureau reports that home improvement scams are a top-5 riskiest scam type in America, with a reported median loss of $1,800. After every major storm in Oklahoma, out-of-state contractors flood the area with door-to-door pitches and low deposits. Shea Construction has been based in Salina, Oklahoma, since 2024. We carry $1M+ in general liability insurance, use only licensed and insured subcontractors, and back every project with a written 1-year warranty.
Emergency Tarping and Board-Up When You Need It
After a storm, the priority is preventing further damage. We provide emergency tarping for damaged roofs and board-up for broken windows and compromised openings. These temporary measures protect the interior while the insurance claim is processed and the permanent repair is scheduled.

Related Restoration Services
If your property sustained fire or water damage separately from or in addition to storm damage, we handle the structural rebuild for both.
If the damage is limited to the roof and doesn’t involve siding, windows, or interior repair, a standalone roofing project may be the right scope.
If the storm damaged siding or windows without affecting the roof or interior, a targeted exterior project covers the repair.

Storm Damage Repair Questions
Should I file an insurance claim for storm damage?
If the damage is significant enough to exceed your deductible, yes. We provide a free damage assessment and can help you determine whether filing a claim makes sense based on the extent of the damage and your deductible amount. We document everything the adjuster will need and walk you through the process.
How long does storm damage restoration take?
Timelines depend on the scope. A roof-only replacement takes 1 to 3 days. A full restoration involving roof, siding, windows, and interior rebuild can take 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the extent of the damage and the insurance approval timeline. We provide a project schedule once the claim is settled and the scope is finalized.
What if my insurance claim doesn't cover the full repair?
This happens frequently. Initial insurance estimates often understate the scope. We file supplements with your carrier to document additional damage or repair requirements that weren’t included in the original approval. We also offer SweetPay financing for qualified clients to cover any gap between insurance coverage and the actual repair cost
How do I avoid storm-chasing scam contractors?
Verify the contractor is based in Oklahoma (not a temporary out-of-state crew). Confirm current general liability insurance ($1M+ minimum). Ask for a written scope and warranty before any work begins. Never pay a large deposit before work starts. Check with the Oklahoma Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Unit at 1-833-681-1895 if you have concerns. Shea Construction meets all of these criteria.

We handle storm damage restoration across all 30+ cities in our Northeast Oklahoma service area, including Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Claremore, Pryor, Owasso, Grove, Tahlequah, Muskogee, Wagoner, and surrounding communities throughout Mayes, Rogers, Cherokee, Tulsa, Wagoner, Muskogee, Delaware, Craig, and Nowata Counties
