Hail Storm Damage and Roof Repairs
NOTICE TO CITIZENS AND HOMEOWNERS
Following the recent hail storm, many properties in our community may have sustained damage, particularly to roofing systems, siding, gutters, and other exterior components. We encourage all residents to carefully inspect their homes for signs of damage such as dents, missing shingles, leaks, or compromised materials.
If repairs or replacement work is needed, please be advised that a building permit is required prior to any roof repairs or construction work beginning. This helps ensure that all work is completed safely, meets applicable building codes, and is properly inspected.
Homeowners are strongly encouraged to use licensed and reputable contractors for any storm-related repairs. Be cautious of unsolicited contractors or “storm chasers” who may offer quick, unverified repairs. Always verify licensing, insurance, and local references before signing any agreements.
If you believe your property has been damaged, contact your insurance provider as soon as possible to initiate a claim and document all damage thoroughly with photos.
For permit information or questions regarding required inspections, please contact the Building Safety Office (479) 784-2206 or visit the city’s official website for guidance and fee schedules.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter and for helping maintain the safety and integrity of our community.
