Cheyenne sits in one of the most storm-active corridors in the country. Between the hail that builds over Colorado and rolls northeast, the sustained winds that regularly top 50 miles per hour, and the heavy wet snow loads of winter, a Cheyenne roof takes more punishment in a single year than roofs in most parts of the United States see in several.
When a storm hits, the damage is rarely simple. A single severe event often leaves hail bruising, lifted shingles, torn flashing, and water intrusion all at once. Restoring the roof properly means addressing every type of damage the storm caused — not just the part that is obvious from the ground.
Pete’s Builders has been restoring storm-damaged roofs across Cheyenne WY and SE Wyoming since 2015. We assess the full scope of damage, document everything professionally, coordinate with property adjusters where coverage applies, and complete the restoration with our own crew. From the first emergency call to the final walkthrough, you work with one accountable company.
Hail is the most common and most deceptive storm damage in Cheyenne. A moderate hail event leaves circular impact points that bruise the shingle mat and knock away the protective granule layer. From the ground, the roof can look untouched, but the damage compromises the shingles’ ability to shed water. Left unaddressed, those impact points become entry paths for moisture once the freeze-thaw cycle sets in. We document every impact point and restore the affected sections or the full roof as the damage requires
Cheyenne’s sustained high winds lift ridge caps, peel back shingle sections, and tear flashing away from chimneys, walls, and skylights. Once wind gets under a shingle edge, it loosens the fastener and lets water into the roof. Wind damage is a year-round concern in Cheyenne, not just a hail-season problem, and we inspect for it after every significant wind event.
When a storm breaches the roof, water follows the path of least resistance, often traveling well away from the entry point before it shows up as a ceiling stain or wall damage inside. Pete’s Builders identifies the true source of intrusion, not just the visible symptom, and restores the roof system so the leak is genuinely resolved rather than temporarily hidden
High winds turn tree limbs, branches, and loose material into projectiles. We assess structural impact from debris, confirm the roof and decking are sound, and restore any punctured or compromised sections.
Storm restoration done right follows a clear sequence. Here is how we handle it from the moment you call.
For active damage, we respond 24 hours a day to install temporary waterproof tarping that stops further water intrusion while the full restoration is arranged. Stopping the bleeding comes first.
A trained roofing professional inspects every section of the roof and the connected exterior, documenting all hail, wind, water, and debris damage with professional photographs.
We prepare a complete written damage report. When the damage qualifies for coverage under a Wyoming property policy, we coordinate directly with your property adjuster so the full covered scope is accurately represented — nothing missed, nothing undervalued.
We complete the restoration with our own licensed insured team. The same crew, start to finish. No subcontractors handed your project.
When the work is complete, we walk the property with you, confirm every item is resolved, and leave the site clean.
After a major storm, out-of-state companies flood Cheyenne with promises and disappear before the work can be held accountable. Pete’s Builders is the local alternative a Cheyenne company that is still here when the next season comes.
We respond 24 hours a day. We document honestly. We restore it with our own crew. And because we are licensed and insured in Wyoming and Nebraska with full coverage on every job, the risk never falls on you.

Quick answer
After a Cheyenne storm: stay safe and stop active leaks, photograph the damage, contact your insurer, and get a documented inspection from a licensed local roofer. Restoration can mean targeted repairs or a full replacement depending on the damage — and much hail and wind damage is invisible from the ground, so don't skip the inspection.

Restoration covers the full journey after a storm: emergency tarping or sealing to stop water intrusion, a documented inspection, photo evidence for your insurance claim, and then insurance-approved repairs or a full roof replacement. On commercial and metal roofs that are worn but sound, it can also mean re-sealing and protective coatings.
Standard homeowner policies generally cover sudden hail and wind damage (not wear or age), and Wyoming law gives insurers about 45 days to pay a claim (Wyo. Stat. § 26-15-124). For the full picture, see what insurance covers in Wyoming and how to file your claim.
Hire a licensed local roofer, not a door-knocking storm chaser. In Wyoming it is illegal for a storm-repair solicitor to pay or rebate your insurance deductible (Wyo. Stat. § 40-12-702). See storm chasers vs. local roofers for how to vet a contractor.
