Storm history and roof risk
NOAA's Storm Events database since 2015 lists 1,043 hail events of one inch or larger, 420 tornadoes and 317 damaging thunderstorm wind events across the 106 counties where calls are answered. Housing adds to the risk: by Census estimates for 2019 to 2023, 48% of Kentucky homes were built before 1980, and the median home was built in 1982. Older roofs tend to show storm wear sooner. After the next hail or wind storm, call Roofers Hotline to book a roof inspection and get a written estimate.
The 106 counties where calls are answered also logged 317 thunderstorm wind events of 65 knots or more since 2015 in NOAA's records, which is why wind-lifted shingles come up so often. Asphalt shingles cover about 66% of Kentucky homes and metal about 19%, per the federal residential energy survey. With 194 roofing businesses statewide in Census business records, comparing written estimates is straightforward. Census estimates put the state's housing at 2,010,655 units, about 68% of them lived in by their owners.
