Lancaster
The 2012 tornado path
The National Weather Service rated the April 3, 2012 Lancaster tornado EF-2, with winds up to 130 mph, a path 7.1 miles long and a width of 200 yards. Damage started east of I-35E and Parkerville Road and continued through the city, including near Telephone Road and North Dallas Avenue and near Pleasant Run Road and Rogers Avenue, before the tornado lifted in southern Dallas. Many homes were severely damaged or destroyed, some losing roofs and exterior walls.
Wind damage is about edges and connections, which is why our wind repairs start at the eaves and ridge and check the decking underneath.
Commercial roofs
Warehouses as well as homes
Lancaster has about 38,000 residents and two established industrial areas, the Longhorn and Cedar Valley industrial parks. Their flat and metal roofs take the same storms as the neighborhoods, and we handle commercial repairs and replacements phased around operations.
