Straightforward Answers After Hail, Wind, or Ice Damage
It’s not always obvious what damage your home has sustained after a severe storm. A roof can look normal from the driveway, while hail bruising, granule loss, lifted shingles, or loosened flashing quietly affect the system underneath. Siding, windows, gutters, and trim can also take damage that seems minor at first but creates openings for moisture to enter over time.
Heins Contracting provides professional storm damage inspections and exterior repair or replacement services for homeowners across Madison, Waukesha, and Southern Wisconsin. Our goal is simple: give you a clear picture of what happened, document the damage properly, and help you understand the next step without pressure.
How Storm Damage Affects Your Home
Southern Wisconsin weather can be hard on every part of the exterior. Spring and summer storms often bring hail and high winds, while winter ice buildup can push meltwater under roofing materials and behind fascia. Because those issues can affect multiple areas at once, a full exterior inspection is usually the most reliable place to start.
Roof Storm Damage
Roofs often take the brunt of hail, wind, falling limbs, and storm debris. We inspect the roof surface, flashing, edges, penetrations, and visible areas of concern to determine whether repair or replacement is the right recommendation. We complete most roof replacements in one day using materials from trusted manufacturers such as GAF, Brava, and North Country. You can learn more about available roofing options on our roofing services page.
Siding Storm Damage
Hail and wind can leave dents, cracks, impact marks, or loose sections that affect more than curb appeal. Once siding is compromised, moisture has a path into the layers behind it. Heins Contracting carefully assesses siding damage and provides replacement when needed, using trusted products such as James Hardie fiber cement siding, LP SmartSide, and CertainTeed siding. Our siding services page explains the available materials in more detail.
Window Storm Damage
Wind-driven debris and hail can crack glass, damage frames, break seals, or affect how a window operates. We evaluate visible storm damage and, when necessary, provide replacements using Andersen and Polaris window lines. Visit our window services page to compare product options and configurations.
Gutter Storm Damage
Gutters often show storm damage through denting, separation, sagging, or pulled-away sections. When gutters no longer move water properly, runoff can affect the roof edge, siding, landscaping, and foundation. We address gutter damage as part of a comprehensive storm assessment.
Ice Dam Removal
Ice dams are a common winter issue across Southern Wisconsin. When ice builds up along the eaves, melting snow can back up beneath the roofing materials and lead to water infiltration that may not appear until later. Heins Contracting provides ice dam removal as a dedicated service, and you can find more details on our ice dam removal page.
Support for the Insurance Claim Process
Once storm damage is documented, insurance is often the next concern. Many homeowners are not sure whether they should call their insurance company first, what photos they need, or how to explain damage they cannot safely see from the ground. That is where a professional inspection can make the process easier.
We start with a free inspection and provide detailed documentation of our findings. From there, we help you understand the scope of the damage, answer your questions, and coordinate with your insurance company as the project progresses.

Steps Southern Wisconsin Homeowners Should Take After a Storm
The first hours after a storm can feel stressful, especially if you are seeing debris, dents, leaks, or visible exterior damage. Taking the right steps early can help protect both your home and your insurance claim.
Safety First
Stay away from downed lines, unstable debris, loose branches, and any area that may be structurally unsafe. Do not climb onto the roof to investigate damage yourself.
Document Visible Damage
Take photos of what you can safely see from the ground, including siding, gutters, windows, roof edges, fallen branches, and exterior debris.
Don’t Assume the Damage is Minor
Hail bruising, granule loss, lifted shingles, and broken window seals are not always easy to see without a closer look.
