Commercial Tornado Roof Damage Response

After a tornado, an open commercial roof can be one part of broader damage involving walls, utilities and rooftop equipment. We help Houston property owners arrange roof assessment and protection once the responsible teams confirm where access is permitted.

## Determine when the roof review can begin

The National Weather Service documented the January 2023 tornado path across parts of Southeast Houston, Pasadena, Deer Park and Baytown. The survey found roof damage as well as impacts to electrical infrastructure near the Ship Channel. Multiple parts of a site may need clearance before rooftop work can begin.

Ask the site contact which areas have been released and whether utilities, displaced material or structural issues still restrict access. Make sure the roof team understands who can update those limits if the field conditions change.

## Capture openings and prevent further water entry where possible

Document the open roof areas, equipment penetrations and damaged perimeter before different trades change them. Use a building map and repeatable area labels so the owner can distinguish roof damage from surrounding wall or equipment conditions.

When safe work is possible, record the extent of temporary covering and the areas it protects. Identify who will check it during the recovery period, especially if permanent work is waiting for other building systems to be repaired.

## Put other trades and permanent roofing in the right order

A new roof edge may need a stable parapet, and replacing torn membrane near a mechanical unit may depend on setting a new curb first. Make these dependencies explicit so the roof installer can connect to finished adjacent work without leaving an opening.

Keep the owner informed about areas available for use, repair phases and decisions that require structural or equipment input. Preserve the roof repair scope and field changes with the recovery records for future maintenance.
