Treynor sits on open ground east of Council Bluffs, high enough and exposed enough that wind events here tend to arrive with nothing in front of them.

That does not mean your house is damaged. It means it is worth knowing either way.
The April 2024 outbreak is the one people here remember, and it is the one most likely to have left damage that never got assessed. Two years on, a roof that took a bruising then can still look fine from the ground.
Hail damage in western Iowa rarely announces itself. A roof can look completely normal from the ground and still be finished.
Bare asphalt where the protective granules were knocked away. The shingle keeps working for a while, then fails years early.
A soft spot under the surface with no visible mark. Often the only real evidence that hail touched the roof at all.
Dents in gutters, downspouts, vent caps, and flashing. Metal keeps the record even when the shingles hide it. Usually the first thing that tells us a storm was real.
A horizontal fold across a shingle where it lifted and set back down. Most common on the west and south exposures that take the brunt of it here.
Cracked or punched panels on the storm-facing wall, plus loosened J-channel where the pressure worked the seams.
Most inspections in this market are a ladder, a five-minute look, and a sales pitch. Ours is a documented process, and it produces a report you keep whether or not you ever hire us.
If the roof is fine, the report says the roof is fine. That is the whole point.
Full replacements and repairs after hail and wind, plus honest assessment of roofs that simply aged out. Asphalt shingle is most of what we do here.
Storm-damaged and worn siding, replaced or repaired. Hail often hits siding and gutters harder than the roof — it's worth looking at all three together.
Replacement and repair, including the dents and separations that wind and hail leave behind. Undersized systems on older homes are common around here.
Treynor housing runs to frame construction with outbuildings and detached garages on a lot of properties, which widens what an honest inspection has to cover.
Older homes here often carry two or three layers of shingles. Iowa limits you to two. A third layer changes the tear-off scope and complicates a claim, so it is better to find out before an adjuster is standing in the driveway.
Early construction in this area typically used 1×6 or 1×8 plank decking with gaps between the boards. Modern shingles need solid, consistent nailing. This is the most common surprise line item we find on older roofs.
Siding installed before the mid-1980s usually has no house wrap behind it. Once a panel cracks, there is nothing between the weather and the sheathing.
Metal outbuilding roofs and detached garages take hail the same as the house, and they are routinely left off a claim because nobody inspected them. If it has a roof and it is on your property, it is worth walking.
Yes — Treynor is part of our regular service area, along with the surrounding southwest Iowa and Omaha metro communities.
We document storm damage and provide the detailed inspection report your insurance company needs to process a claim. Filing the claim itself and negotiating the settlement with your insurer are steps you handle directly — that's not something a contractor is permitted to do on your behalf under Iowa and Nebraska law. We're with you through the process, but the claim stays yours.
No commissioned salesmen, no commission markup built into your price, and the same expert crews on every job — not whoever's available that week. You talk directly to the person running your job from the first call to the final walk-through.
Yes, every inspection is free, whether it turns into a job or not. Most roofs we look at don't end up needing work — we'll tell you straight either way.
Missing or curling shingles, granule loss showing up in your gutters, dented gutters or downspouts, and soft spots on the roof deck are the most common signs. If you're not sure, a free inspection is the fastest way to know for certain.
No. We don't employ commissioned salesmen, so nobody inspecting your roof earns more by selling you a bigger job. If a repair is the right call, that's what we'll tell you — and if nothing needs doing at all, we'll tell you that too.
If you served, or you're a senior in the community, we take 10% off labor on cash-pay roofing, siding, and gutter work. It's a small way of saying thanks to the people who've earned it.
