The Storm Is Over. Let Us Handle Everything From Here.
MAZE provides full-scope storm damage response for commercial facilities across DFW — assessment, insurance documentation, adjuster coordination, and managed repair.
Storm damage to a commercial roof rarely announces itself the way you expect. Hail bruises membranes invisibly. Wind breaks fastener attachments beneath the surface.
The longer hidden damage goes undetected, the more expensive it gets. Saturated insulation, corroded decking, mold growth — what starts as a section repair becomes a full replacement.
MAZE deploys certified crews with drone, infrared, and moisture mapping technology to find every square foot of damage — and documents it in the format your adjuster needs before they even ask.
How MAZE Handles Storm Damage
MAZE responds to commercial storm damage with a structured five-step process designed to protect your facility, maximize your insurance recovery, and restore your roof system to full performance.
Temporary Stabilization
If your roof has active leaks or exposed membrane after the storm, we prioritize containing the damage with commercial-grade tarping, patches, and temporary sealant applications.
Full Assessment
Certified crews perform a comprehensive roof survey using infrared thermography, moisture mapping, and visual inspection to identify all storm-related damage — visible and hidden.
Insurance Documentation
We prepare a complete claim file: geotagged damage photos, moisture survey data, material identification, measurements, and a detailed scope of work in the format adjusters require.
Adjuster Coordination
MAZE attends the adjuster meeting on-site, walks the roof with your insurance representative, and presents documented findings. If the initial scope falls short, we prepare supplement documentation.
Repair or Replacement
Once the claim is approved, MAZE manages the full restoration — from material procurement and crew scheduling through final inspection and warranty documentation.

Storm Damage Response in Action
“MAZE handled the entire insurance process for us. They had the documentation ready before the adjuster even arrived, and we recovered the full replacement cost without a single supplement delay.”
Facility Director
Operations, Retail Shopping Center
“We had no idea the hail damage was as extensive as it was — no visible leaks at all. MAZE found damage across 80% of the roof with their infrared scans. Without that assessment, we would have missed the claim window entirely.”
Property Manager
Asset Management, Office Building Portfolio
“The adjuster initially scoped our claim at half the actual damage. MAZE prepared a supplement with infrared data and moisture mapping that doubled the approved scope. Professional, thorough, and they fought for every dollar.”

Storm Damage by Roof System Type
Every commercial roof system responds differently to storm events. MAZE crews are trained to identify the specific damage patterns associated with each system type, ensuring nothing is missed during assessment and nothing is over-reported on the claim.
Wind Uplift Damage
High winds create negative pressure zones on commercial roofs, particularly at corners, edges, and ridgelines. On TPO systems, this can separate membrane from the substrate or break mechanical fasteners beneath the surface. On metal panel roofs, wind uplift pulls seams apart and lifts panel edges, creating entry points for water. Modified bitumen and BUR systems may show membrane blow-offs along perimeter areas where adhesion has weakened over time.
Hail Impact Damage
Hail damage varies significantly by roof system. TPO membranes show circular bruising patterns where the material has been compressed — these bruises weaken the membrane without immediately puncturing it, leading to premature failure weeks or months later. Metal panel systems dent visibly, but the functional concern is that denting disrupts the panel profile and can crack sealant at seam overlaps. SPF foam systems absorb hail impact well but can develop surface fractures that allow moisture penetration beneath the coating layer.
Debris Impact and Flashing Failures
Flying debris during storms punctures membranes, tears flashing, and damages rooftop equipment mounts. Flashing at curbs, penetrations, and parapet walls is especially vulnerable — the differential movement between the flashing and the field membrane creates stress points that storms exploit. MAZE inspects every flashing termination, every equipment curb, and every penetration detail during post-storm assessment because these are where the majority of storm-related leaks originate.
Hidden Damage Detection
The most expensive storm damage is the damage you cannot see. Infrared thermography reveals moisture trapped beneath the membrane surface by detecting temperature differentials between wet and dry insulation. Electronic leak detection pinpoints breach locations on single-ply systems. Core cuts confirm insulation saturation levels and deck condition. MAZE uses all three methods during post-storm assessment to build a complete picture of the damage — not just what is visible from the surface.
The Insurance Supplement Process
Initial insurance assessments frequently undervalue commercial storm damage. Adjusters may miss hidden damage, undercount affected areas, or apply residential pricing to commercial specifications. When the initial settlement does not cover the full repair scope, MAZE prepares supplement documentation — additional photographs, moisture data, material specifications, and line-item cost breakdowns that justify the complete restoration. Our documentation is thorough enough that supplement requests are supported on the first submission in the majority of cases.
Restoration Timeline
After assessment and insurance approval, MAZE manages the complete restoration timeline. Minor storm repairs — isolated membrane patches, flashing replacement, seam re-welding — typically complete within one to two weeks. Full roof replacements after major storm events range from three to eight weeks depending on building size, system specification, and material lead times. For facilities with active leaks, MAZE performs temporary stabilization ahead of claim approval and integrates the work into the insurance scope with proper documentation.
Why Choose MAZE for Storm Damage
Pre-Adjuster Documentation
We complete the full damage assessment and build the claim file before your adjuster arrives — so the scope is defined on day one, not built reactively during the meeting.
Adjuster Meeting Support
MAZE walks the roof with your adjuster, presents documented findings, and ensures every item of damage is reviewed. No damage goes unreported because no one pointed it out.
Supplement Expertise
When the initial settlement falls short, MAZE prepares detailed supplement packages with additional documentation, material specifications, and cost justification to recover the full scope.
Full Project Management
From temporary stabilization through final warranty documentation, MAZE manages every phase of the restoration — materials, crews, quality inspections, and project closeout.
We document everything your adjuster needs — before they ask for it.
