Live Phoenix-Area Storm Map
Every red dot is a NOAA-verified hail event; every blue dot is damaging straight-line wind. Look up your neighborhood — if there's a cluster near you, your roof likely took a hit.
Not all NOAA reports geocode cleanly — the map is spotter-reported events, so absences don't mean nothing hit your roof.

What Phoenix Homeowners Should Watch For
Roofs age differently here. UV, thermal expansion, and monsoon microbursts create damage patterns unique to the Valley of the Sun.
UV & heat degradation
Phoenix asphalt shingles lose granules and crack ~2× faster than the national average. If yours is 12+ years old, get it checked.
Monsoon microbursts
Straight-line winds of 60–80 mph are common in July–September. They rip tiles, lift shingles, and dislodge ridge caps.
Haboobs (dust storms)
Dense wind-driven dust sandblasts roof surfaces and clogs valleys and scuppers. Hidden damage often shows up months later.
Cracked or slipped tiles
70% of Valley roofs are tile. One walked-on or wind-lifted tile can expose underlayment — and underlayment fails at ~20 years.
Foam roof separation
Flat/low-slope homes with SPF foam roofs need recoating every 5 years. Bubbles, cracks, or ponding mean it's overdue.
Storm chasers
After every big monsoon, out-of-state trucks knock doors. AZ ROC license lookup is free — always verify before signing anything.

The 2026 Phoenix Pre-Monsoon Roof Checklist
18 actions across the season — most take under 5 minutes and none require a ladder. Save it, print it, share it — the whole thing is right here.
Before monsoon season
May – early June- 1Walk the perimeter and look up.From the ground, scan the entire roof line for cracked, chipped, or slipped tiles. Photograph anything suspicious with the date.
- 2Check for exposed underlayment.Any patch of black/gray felt visible between tiles means the underlayment is exposed to UV — one storm from a leak.
- 3Clear the yard of anything that can fly.Loose patio furniture, umbrellas, decorative rocks. 60–80 mph straight-line winds will pick them up.
- 4Inspect scuppers and drains on flat roofs.Debris in the drain path is the #1 cause of ponding after the first big storm.
- 5Photograph your roof from every side.Baseline photos are what adjusters compare storm damage against. Phone photos are fine — date-stamped.
- 6Look for lifted or missing ridge caps.The ridge is the most wind-exposed part of your roof. Missing caps = an active water path.
- 7Pull a free RoofTap roof report.Satellite measurements + 24-month storm history for your address. rooftap.app — 30 seconds.
During monsoon season
June 15 – September 30- 1After every named storm, walk the perimeter.New tiles on the ground, fresh A/C fin dents, palm debris on the roof, ceiling stains — your four flags.
- 2Do NOT climb the roof.Cracked and lifted tiles are slippery, load-bearing paths are compromised after a storm. Ground + binoculars.
- 3Watch for water spots on ceilings.New brown or yellow rings AFTER a storm mean water got in. Photograph them and note the date.
- 4Note the exact storm date.Claims tie to specific event dates. NOAA logs verified events at ncdc.noaa.gov — or use RoofTap.
- 5Ignore any roofer knocking within 48 hours.Storm chasers roll into Phoenix within hours. AZ ROC license lookup at roc.az.gov is free.
- 6Report claims within 48 hours where possible.AZ policies give 1 year, but faster reporting = faster payout. Get a claim number before signing anything.
After monsoon season
October – November- 1Get a professional ground-level inspection.A licensed AZ ROC roofer can walk the roof once tiles have cooled. Book October / early November.
- 2Confirm underlayment age.Tile roofs 18–22 years old — underlayment is end-of-life even if the tiles look fine. Re-lay = $12k–$22k typical.
- 3Recoat foam roofs on schedule.SPF foam needs a fresh coat every 5 years. Bubbles, cracks, or discoloration = overdue.
- 4Check attic ventilation.Blocked vents (bird nests, debris) increase heat on the underlayment and shorten its life.
- 5Save your storm-history report.Your RoofTap PDF is your documentation for future claims. You cannot re-generate historical events after the fact.

What to Do After a Phoenix Monsoon Hits
1. Document from the ground
Photos of tiles in the yard, dented A/C fins, and any interior water spots. Don't climb tile roofs after a storm — cracked tiles are deadly slippery.
2. Pull a free roof report
Use the tool above to get measurements and a hail/wind history for your address. Bring it to the adjuster meeting.
3. Call your insurer within 48 hours
AZ policies typically have a 1-year claim window, but early reporting = faster payout. Get your claim number before anything else.
4. Verify AZ ROC license
Check any roofer at roc.az.gov. Storm chasers won't be here for the 10-year warranty — a local licensed roofer will.
Phoenix Roofing FAQ
How long does a Phoenix roof actually last?
Asphalt shingles: 12–18 years (vs. 20–25 nationally) because of UV. Concrete or clay tile: 40–50 years but the underlayment underneath needs replacing at ~20 years. Foam (SPF) on flat roofs: 20+ years with recoats every 5.
Does homeowners insurance cover monsoon damage?
Yes — wind, hail, and falling-object damage from monsoon storms are covered on standard AZ policies. Wear-and-tear and UV degradation are not. This is why documenting a specific storm event matters.
What's a haboob and can it damage my roof?
A haboob is a wall of wind-driven dust that rolls across the Valley during monsoon season. The dust itself sandblasts roof surfaces; the 40–70 mph winds ahead of it lift tiles and shingles. Damage is often hidden until the first heavy rain.
How much does a new roof cost in Phoenix?
Asphalt: $8,000–$15,000. Concrete tile re-lay with new underlayment: $12,000–$22,000. Full tile replacement: $20,000–$40,000. Foam recoat on flat: $3,000–$7,000. Use the free report tool above for a size-specific estimate.
Should I get a roof inspection before monsoon season?
Yes. Pre-monsoon (May–early June) is the ideal window. Loose tiles, dry-rotted flashing, and clogged scuppers all fail in the first big storm. A satellite report is the fastest way to see if you need someone to come out.
