With 17 hail reports near Valley Center in 2026, here's what to do in the first few days after a storm, and how Roof Dr can help.
Valley Center was incorporated in 1885 and named for its spot in the Arkansas River valley. Today it's a city of 7,340 just west of I-135 north of Wichita, home to Valley Center USD 262, which also serves families in Park City, Kechi and parts of Wichita. Locals know it for Theorosa's Bridge and the stories that go with it.
Storm data shows 17 hail reports within 10 miles of Valley Center in 2026, including golf-ball-size hail near Wichita on April 25 and quarter-size hail on August 7. There were 14 reports in 2025. With that much activity, plenty of roofs in town have likely been through at least one damaging storm in the past two years.
Write down the storm date and photograph anything you can see from the ground: dents in gutters and vents, hail spatter on fences, shingles in the yard. Don't climb onto the roof. If water is coming in, call us for a tarp, since your policy expects you to prevent further damage. Then get an inspection before you file, so you know whether there's enough damage to justify a claim.
After a big storm, out-of-state crews show up fast. Kansas requires roofers to register with the Attorney General, and you can check any company at ag.ks.gov. If you sign a contract at your door, Kansas law gives you three days to cancel.
