If you have a leak or a safety concern
Look from the ground. Do not climb onto a wet or damaged roof. Keep clear of downed power lines and unstable trees. Keep people away from sagging ceilings or wet electrical equipment. If water is coming in, arrange safe temporary protection and keep the scope and receipts. For urgent steps, use the emergency roof repair checklist.
Estimate a budget for your house, not the whole town
Check replacement cost for my address
Enter the full street address, city and state. Confirm the highlighted building, roof pitch and material. The result is a whole-roof replacement planning range, not the cost of this storm's damage. The map does not show hail strikes, shingle condition or insurance coverage, and a repair may be a much smaller job.
What will a repair cost?
The report alone can't price a repair. Angi's national roof-repair guide lists $395–$1,967 for roof repairs overall, with a $1,174 average (updated October 14, 2026). Those are national figures, not a local post-storm quote. Use the repair cost guide, the hail damage inspection guide and the repair-or-replace tool to organize bids, and the quote comparer once they arrive.
A practical evidence checklist
- Write down when you noticed the problem and which rooms or areas are affected.
- Photograph what you can see from a safe spot. Don't go onto a hazardous roof for photos.
- Save this page's date and source link, keeping in mind it doesn't show damage at your address.
- Keep receipts and the scope for any temporary protection.
- Ask the roofer to write down what they saw, the permanent work they recommend and any allowance for hidden damage.
- Check your policy's wind and hail deductible, settlement terms and deadlines with your insurer. The out-of-pocket guide explains ACV, RCV and deductibles.
RoofGenius does not inspect roofs, file claims or represent you in a claim. Check any contractor's license, insurance and references yourself.

Frequently asked questions
Does a storm report near Burlington Twp, NJ prove my roof was damaged?
No. It records a preliminary observation at one location. Your roof's condition needs its own inspection.
What does "unknown" wind speed mean?
The report has no numeric wind speed. It is not zero and should not be read as a guessed gust.
Can you tell whether hail fell at my exact address?
Not from these point reports. They are not a property-level hail map, and the address tool does not use hail observations.
Will insurance cover a roof repair after this storm?
That depends on the facts, your policy terms, exclusions, deductible and settlement conditions. A nearby report and a replacement budget do not decide it.
