Storm Damage

In Green Country, the threat of severe weather is not just a possibility; it's an annual certainty. Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso, Sand Springs, Claremore, Sapulpa, Glenpool, and Okmulgee regularly face the destructive forces of hail, high winds, and tornadic activity. When these storms strike, your roof is the primary line of defense, and its integrity can be compromised in an instant. Proof Construction LLC, with Oklahoma License #80004070, specializes in comprehensive storm damage assessment and restoration, ensuring your property is secured and fully restored to code.

Our expertise, honed over 10+ years and 4,000+ completed projects, allows us to accurately identify all forms of storm damage, from subtle hail impacts to significant wind uplift. We understand the nuances of NOAA hail size categories, recognizing the distinct damage profiles left by pea-sized hail versus golf ball or even softball-sized ice projectiles. Wind damage often manifests as creased, lifted, or missing shingles, fascia, or soffit, and we meticulously document every affected area.

Navigating the insurance claims process can be daunting. Proof Construction acts as your advocate, providing detailed, undeniable evidence to your insurance carrier. Our team conducts thorough adjuster scope auditing to ensure all damage is accounted for, preventing common underpayments. We are experts in preparing and filing supplemental claims when initial assessments fall short, ensuring you receive the full compensation required for a complete, code-compliant repair. We prioritize the use of Class 4 impact-resistant shingles and robust SBS-modified underlayment to enhance your roof's resilience against future Oklahoma storms, adhering strictly to current Oklahoma wind zone classifications and IBC/IRC building codes. Don't face your insurance company alone; call Proof Construction at (918) 734-4444 for an immediate, no-obligation storm damage inspection.

Weather Maintenance & Inspection

Proactive weather maintenance and routine inspections are paramount to extending the lifespan of your roofing system and avoiding catastrophic failures in Oklahoma's dynamic climate. Our comprehensive inspection protocols go beyond a cursory glance. We employ advanced drone technology for inaccessible areas, providing high-resolution imagery to identify potential vulnerabilities before they escalate into costly repairs.

Our certified inspectors meticulously examine every component of your roof: shingle integrity, granule loss, proper flashing around penetrations (vents, chimneys, skylights), the condition of gutters and downspouts, and the effectiveness of your ventilation system. We look for subtle signs of wear, such as cracked caulk, loose fasteners, or early signs of delamination, which are often precursors to leaks. Seasonal inspections, particularly before the spring storm season and after the intense summer heat, are critical for early detection and preventative maintenance. This vigilance ensures compliance with Oklahoma-specific building codes and helps maintain your roof's manufacturer warranty. With Proof Construction, you benefit from our 10+ years of experience, an A+ BBB rating, and a 4.9/5 Google star rating from over 100 satisfied clients who trust our thoroughness and commitment to preventative care across Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso, Sand Springs, Claremore, Sapulpa, Glenpool, and Okmulgee.

Roofing Materials & Types

The choice of roofing material is a critical decision, influencing not only the aesthetic appeal of your property but also its longevity, energy efficiency, and resilience against Oklahoma's extreme weather. Proof Construction offers an extensive range of high-performance roofing solutions, each selected for its durability and suitability for our local climate.

• **Architectural/Laminate Shingles:** The most popular choice for residential properties in Green Country. We exclusively install premium architectural shingles, often Class 4 impact-resistant, providing superior protection against hail and wind compared to traditional 3-tab shingles. As Owens Corning Platinum Preferred and GAF Master Elite contractors, we offer exclusive, enhanced warranties that only a select few in the nation can provide, guaranteeing the quality of both materials and workmanship. Our installations always include robust SBS-modified synthetic underlayment, ice and water shield in critical areas (e.g., valleys, eaves, pipe penetrations), and proper starter and ridge cap shingles for a complete, watertight system.
• **Metal Roofing:** Gaining significant traction for its exceptional durability, longevity (often 50+ years), and energy efficiency. Available in various profiles (standing seam, R-panel, stone-coated steel), metal roofs are highly resistant to hail, fire, and high winds, making them an excellent investment for Oklahoma homeowners seeking maximum protection and a distinct aesthetic.
• **TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) & EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer):** Predominantly used for low-slope and flat commercial roofing applications. TPO is a white, reflective membrane known for its energy efficiency and heat-welded seams, offering superior watertight integrity. EPDM is a durable, synthetic rubber roofing membrane, renowned for its longevity and resistance to UV radiation and ozone.
• **Modified Bitumen:** An asphalt-based rolled roofing product, ideal for low-slope residential or commercial applications where a torch-applied or self-adhering membrane is required. It provides excellent waterproofing and durability.

Every roofing system we install is engineered to exceed current Oklahoma building codes and IBC/IRC standards, ensuring your investment is sound and your property is protected.

Attic & Ventilation

A properly ventilated attic is not merely an accessory; it is a fundamental component of a healthy, long-lasting roofing system, especially in the extreme temperature fluctuations experienced in Tulsa and surrounding areas. Without adequate ventilation, your attic can become a superheated oven in the summer and a moisture trap in the winter, leading to premature shingle degradation, elevated energy bills, and potential mold or mildew growth.

Proof Construction meticulously designs and installs balanced ventilation systems that promote continuous airflow. This "stack effect" draws cooler air in through soffit or intake vents at the eaves and expels hot, moist air through exhaust vents at the ridge. Our solutions include:

• **Ridge Vents:** Discreet, continuous vents installed along the roof peak, providing optimal exhaust.
• **Soffit Vents:** Intake vents located in the eaves, crucial for supplying the necessary cool air.
• **Static Vents:** Traditional box vents for exhaust, often supplemented with power vents for increased airflow.
• **Power Vents:** Mechanically driven fans that actively pull hot air out of the attic, highly effective in severe heat.

Proper ventilation prevents the blistering and curling of shingles caused by excessive heat buildup, mitigates the risk of ice damming (though less common in Oklahoma, still a concern), and helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures, reducing the load on your HVAC system. Our ventilation strategies are fully compliant with Oklahoma-specific building codes and IBC/IRC requirements, ensuring your home or business is not only protected but also operates with maximum energy efficiency. Trust our 10+ years of expertise to optimize your attic's performance.

Cost & Financing

Understanding the investment required for a new roof or significant repair is crucial, and Proof Construction is committed to complete transparency regarding costs and financing options. The total cost of your roofing project is influenced by several key factors:

• **Material Selection:** Premium architectural shingles, metal roofing, or commercial TPO systems naturally have different price points.
• **Roof Complexity:** Steep pitches, multiple valleys, dormers, and numerous penetrations require more labor and specialized techniques.
• **Roof Size:** Larger roofs inherently require more materials and labor.
• **Existing Damage & Code Upgrades:** Extensive decking rot, structural issues, or the need to bring the roof up to current Oklahoma building codes (e.g., adding ice and water shield, upgrading to synthetic underlayment) can impact the final cost.

For storm-related damage, we work directly with your insurance provider, assisting you through the entire claims process. While your deductible is your responsibility, we ensure all covered damages are accounted for, including depreciation and supplemental claims, maximizing your insurance payout. For non-insurance projects, Proof Construction offers flexible financing solutions to make your essential roofing investment manageable. We provide detailed, itemized quotes with no hidden fees, explaining every aspect of the proposed work. Choosing Proof Construction means investing in unparalleled quality, backed by our Owens Corning Platinum Preferred and GAF Master Elite certifications, an A+ BBB rating, and a 4.9/5 Google star rating. While a cheaper upfront bid might seem appealing, compromising on quality often leads to higher costs down the line. We guarantee a superior, long-lasting solution for your property in Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso, Sand Springs, Claremore, Sapulpa, Glenpool, or Okmulgee.
