Quick answers
- What is considered hail damage on a roof? Bruising under the granules that cuts a roof's life short, as opposed to cosmetic marks. On Warman streets built in one short window, the roofs tend to fail at the same rate.
- Does insurance cover storm damage to roof? Usually through an SGI or private insurance claim. We work alongside your adjuster so the approved scope matches the real damage on your Warman roof.
- Can hail damage roof shingles? Yes. The August 2025 storm brought golf-ball to baseball hail around Warman, and hail bruises the mat under the granules where it is often invisible from the ground.
We at W Contracting Roofing are a roofing contractor working out of 410 Stensrud Rd #139 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and we provide storm and hail damage roof restoration in Warman, SK, where a fire in 1908 and a tornado in 1910 took most of the first village. We are GAF Certified, HAAG Certified, and a BBB Accredited Business with an A rating. We back every roof we install with a 10-year workmanship warranty.
Warman roofing
Storm and hail damage is what we handle most, and Warman sees its share. Squarely in the path of the August 2025 storm - the warned cell was tracked toward 'Martensville, Warman, and Hague' with very large hail and 100+ km/h winds.
More about Warman weather
Golf-ball to baseball hail, 120 km/h plow winds, a possible nearby tornado. Prairie snow drift, freeze-thaw, and the 1.5 kPa regional ground-snow load all apply.
A Warman subdivision built in one short window tends to have the same shingle product on every roof, so after a hailstorm the roofs on a street tend to fail at the same rate, and the bruising under the granules is often invisible from the ground. What hail and wind do to shingles is explained in full on our storm and hail damage restoration page.
Storm exposure
What storm season actually does in Warman
Warman's storm history is not theoretical. A fire in 1908 and then a tornado in 1910 destroyed most of the newly built village, including most of Main Street, and the population dropped so far afterwards that by 1927 the place had fallen back to unincorporated hamlet status. What stands today is almost entirely modern: the city counts 4,162 occupied dwellings and was the fastest growing municipality in Canada between 2011 and 2016.
That matters after a hailstorm, because a subdivision built in one short window tends to have the same shingle product on every roof, and it ages, and fails, at the same rate across the whole street. Warman is a young city with one genuinely old building in it. The railway station that opened in the spring of 1907 holds heritage status and now serves as a senior citizens' drop-in centre, and the settlement itself was informally called Diamond for the shape the Canadian Northern and CPR tracks made where they crossed.
Everything else came later, most of it much later. That mix, one heritage structure surrounded by subdivisions barely a decade old, means a single hailstorm here produces two completely different inspection jobs on the same afternoon.
The rebuild after the 1910 tornado moved the centre of town: people built along Central Street instead, and the old Main Street became a residential side street. The latest scare was the night of Friday, July 3, 2026, when a red extreme tornado warning named Warman with Saskatoon, Martensville and Langham. No tornado came down, and it was lifted after about an hour.
Warman stayed a small community until the 1950s, when it began to grow as a home for people working in Saskatoon. It became Saskatchewan's newest city on October 27, 2012, and grew another 12.7% between the 2016 and 2021 censuses.
More about storm & hail damage roof repair in Warman
Most storm-damage roofs around Warman are handled through an SGI or private insurance claim. A heritage railway station from 1907 and subdivisions barely a decade old can take the same storm and need two different inspections. We document the damage with photos and video and meet your adjuster on site when it helps.
More about Warman's history and homes
Why does it matter that a roofer actually knows Warman? Established 1904 where two rail lines crossed - first nicknamed 'Diamond' for the track layout, then renamed for railway journalist Cy Warman. The original Main Street was rebuilt after fires in 1908 and 1910.
Warman counted 4,313 private dwellings at the 2021 census with 4,162 of them occupied, and the city went from 7,084 people in 2011 to 12,419 in 2021. Almost none of what stands here is old, because the 1908 fire and the 1910 tornado took most of the original village and the place had dropped back to hamlet status by 1927. What that leaves is a housing stock clustered into a few recent build waves rather than spread across a century.
Knowing the age of the housing and the way storms track across this part of Saskatchewan is what tells us how to spec your roof. We reach Warman, about 22 km north of Saskatoon, via Hwy 11 (Louis Riel Trail) and Hwy 305.
What a HAAG Certified storm inspection looks for
| What we check | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Hail bruising | Hail bruises the mat under the granules. You often cannot see it from the ground, but those bruises shed granules, expose the asphalt to UV, and turn into leaks a year or two later. |
| Wind damage | Wind lifts and creases shingles and tears off ridge caps. We get up there, mark every hit, and photograph it. |
| Cosmetic marks or real damage | We are HAAG Certified, so we inspect the way an adjuster does and can tell the difference between cosmetic marks and bruising that will cut your roof’s life short. |
| The deck underneath | Once a claim is approved we strip the roof to the deck and check the plywood for rot before anything new goes on. |
| Claim documentation | We document the damage with photos and video, meet your adjuster on site when it helps, and lay out the scope clearly. Most storm-damage roofs in Saskatchewan go through an SGI or private insurance claim. |

What our customers say about the crew that runs to Warman
Rated 5.0 on Google · W Contracting Roofing · read them on Google
Thanks to Nathan and his team. We had a leaky roof and what we thought was going to be a total nightmare and financial disaster turned out to be a relaxing, seamless and affordable process. From the initial phone call to the end of the job Nathan kept communication going and was patient and knowledgeable when I was trying to choose the right shingles. I can’t thank Nathan and the team enough. We were so impressed we didn’t bother obtaining any quotes from other companies. It’s W Contracting all the way!!!
We were fortunate to find W contracting when we needed a roof replacement. An earlier company we contacted kept saying they'd start in a few days... and then never showed up. Nathan and his professional crew were methodical, and willing to do the little extras that a shingling job may require. They were prompt, quick, thorough and left the site very tidy. Price was good and the street appeal of our house went up, thanks to Nathan's team. A very solid 10 out of 10. We heartily recommend them with absolutely no reservations.
We had Nathan from W Contracting out for a hail estimate, and the service was nothing short of remarkable. In the end, we had to combine our roof claim with a previous garage issue, but the estimate Nathan provided-along with his knowledge and advice-was so thorough that even my insurance adjuster took note. I highly recommend W Contracting for all your roofing needs!
We had new shingles put on our home and had a very positive experience with Nathan and his crew. We would definitely recommend them. They have a great selection of shingles to choose from and a great warranty. Thank you to Nathan and the crew for treating our home well and making the roof look great.
Nathan and the crew were wonderful to deal with. From repairing the roof, installing new shingles, clean-up and competitive pricing, they were professional and efficient in every step. Would trust them to do a roof anytime and will recommend them to everyone we know.
Nathan and his team of roofers are definitely a fantastic group to work with. Nathan came out at 3 am to retarp my roof after the tarp was tore off in a storm. They did a fantastic job with all including clean up. I would fully recommend them. 5 plus stars
Nathan was fast and efficient fixing my rain gutter after it blew down during the night! Very friendly would definitely recommend.
Would recommend Nathan and his team to anyone looking for quality roof job done. They were very accommodating with my time frame, budget and nature of the job. Left the site clean and tidy. A+
