Storm Damage? These Are the Most Common Repairs We’re Doing in Cheyenne Right Now

When a supercell dropped 3-inch hailstones across Cheyenne in late July 2025, it wasn’t just a wild weather event — it was one of the most damaging storms the region has seen in years. The storm hit on the 40th anniversary of the 1985 Cheyenne flood, bringing with it hail, high winds, funnel clouds, and widespread property damage, according to reports by Wyoming Tribune Eagle and Your Wyoming Link.

Now that the skies have cleared, Semper Fi Restoration is actively helping Cheyenne homeowners recover. And while every home is different, some repair needs keep showing up again and again.

🧰 The Most Common Post-Storm Repairs in Cheyenne (July 2025)

1. Shingle Replacement & Full Roof Tear-Offs

Hail this large doesn't just bruise shingles — it shatters them. We’ve seen widespread cracking, granule loss, and even exposed underlayment across neighborhoods like Saddle Ridge, The Pointe, and South Greeley. Some homes are getting full roof replacements; others require strategic repairs depending on age and impact severity.

Pro Tip: Even minor shingle bruising can void manufacturer warranties. Don’t assume you’re in the clear just because it “looks okay.”

2. Damaged Flashing, Vents & Pipe Boots

We’ve encountered dozens of homes with cracked or dented vent stacks, flashing that’s been lifted by wind, and compromised sealant around roof penetrations. These are small components, but they’re major entry points for future leaks.

3. Gutter and Downspout Repairs

Hail impact often dents gutters and pulls down downspouts. This compromises water drainage — which can lead to foundation issues if not fixed fast. Many older homes in Fox Farm-College and Ranchettes were especially hard-hit in this category.

4. Siding Replacement & Repairs

Vinyl and fiber cement siding didn’t stand a chance against softball-sized hail. We’ve replaced dozens of cracked panels, particularly on west- and north-facing sides that took the brunt of the storm. We’re also seeing impact marks on LP SmartSide and dents in aluminum soffit panels.

5. Window Damage & Seal Failures

Broken panes, shattered glass, and compromised seals were reported all over Cheyenne. Even homes without visible cracks are showing signs of fogged double-pane windows — a telltale sign of compromised insulation.

6. Insurance Claim Rework & Adjuster Support

A surprising number of homeowners are calling us after receiving a denial or lowball offer from their insurance company. Our team is actively helping Cheyenne residents with claim supplement support, re-inspections, and photo/video documentation, especially using drone technology.

🏘️ Where We're Seeing the Most Damage

Semper Fi Restoration has been working on homes all across Cheyenne — and we’re starting to see patterns. These areas were among the hardest hit:

• Saddle Ridge – Shingle bruising and broken windows
• Ranchettes – Widespread siding damage and gutter failures
• The Pointe – Roofing and flashing issues from wind lift
• Indian Hills & Sun Valley – Mixed roof and window impacts
• South Greeley – Older homes with full tear-offs needed
• Western Hills – Debris-related roof and vent damage
• 
  

If your neighborhood is on this list, there’s a good chance your home took a hit — even if you can’t see the damage from the ground.

🛠️ What to Do Next

If you haven’t had your home inspected since the storm, now’s the time. Even if you think your home held up well, hidden damage can lead to:

• Roof leaks during fall rains
• Insurance coverage issues later
• 
  
• Mold growth in attics and walls
