Hail and water leak repair in Warr Acres
Warr Acres started as a housing addition laid out by Clyde B. Warr in 1937, eleven years before it incorporated as a town. Houses with that kind of history get two kinds of calls from us: hail on the roof and leaks inside the walls.

Hail and water leak repairs in Warr Acres are handled through our 24/7 line and crews from our north Oklahoma City office. On May 16, 2010, the Oklahoma Climatological Survey logged 2.00-inch hail at Warr Acres, part of a storm that damaged roofs, trees and cars from northwest Oklahoma City through Midwest City.
A 1937 housing addition and the hail of May 2010
According to the Encyclopedia of Oklahoma History, Clyde B. Warr created the Warr Acres housing addition in 1937, and the town incorporated in 1948. The Census Bureau estimated 10,552 residents in mid-2025, with about 62.0% of occupied homes owner occupied. Many houses here have had decades of roof replacements and plumbing changes layered on top of one another.
That layering matters when water gets in. A leak in an older wall can run along old pipe, across a joint between new and original lumber, or behind paneling before it shows. Tracing it with meters and a thermal camera keeps the opening small and the repair focused.
Hail is the other part. The May 16, 2010 storm dropped 2.00-inch hail at Warr Acres, with 4.25-inch hail reported 5 miles northwest of Oklahoma City, according to the Oklahoma Climatological Survey. Two-inch hail is hen egg size on the National Weather Service chart, large enough to crack shingles and dent gutters and vents.
Hail and leak damage we see in Warr Acres
Hail-cracked shingles and dented metal
Large hail bruises or cracks shingles and dents vents, flashing and gutters. Some of that leaks right away, some only after months of weather. We inspect each slope, document every hit and repair or replace depending on how widespread it is.
Hidden leaks inside walls
Slow leaks from old supply lines or drains can stay hidden behind drywall or paneling for weeks. We use moisture meters and thermal imaging to find the wet area and the source, so only the damaged section has to be opened.
Ceiling stains and sagging drywall
Water from a roof leak or an upstairs bathroom pools on the ceiling drywall until it stains or sags. We drain it safely, dry the ceiling cavity and replace and texture the damaged section to match the rest of the room.

Warr Acres hail and leak questions
Look for dented gutters, downspouts and metal vents, granules piled at downspout outlets and chipped paint on siding or trim. Those point to hail strong enough to hit shingles too. A hands-on inspection confirms it and gives you photos.
It may be a plumbing leak from a bathroom above, a sweating duct or a slow drain leak, not the roof. We trace it with moisture meters and thermal imaging before opening anything, so we fix the cause and not just the stain.
Yes. We replace the damaged drywall and match the existing texture, whether it is knockdown, orange peel, popcorn or smooth. On older ceilings, matching paint often means repainting the whole ceiling so the patch does not show.
If it broke through, we cut it off the roof in sections, tarp the opening and check the rafters and decking for cracks. Then we repair the framing, deck and shingles. Photograph the limb in place before removal if you can.
