This directory holds two roofing listings for Atkins, Iowa. None of them has a Google rating matched to it yet, so what follows is contact detail rather than reputation data.
All of them are recorded in Benton County. Roofing permits and inspections are issued locally rather than by the state, so a re-roof in Atkins goes through Benton County or the municipality's own building department, whichever holds jurisdiction at the property.
Hiring a roofer in Atkins: what this page knows
Iowa does not license roofers; it requires them to register with the state, and that registration covers work in Atkins. The Iowa roofing license rules explain what a registration number does and does not tell you.
Iowa's peak severe-weather season: April–August. The Iowa storm center lists any National Weather Service alert active right now. NOAA's Storm Events Database holds 156 severe-weather events for Benton County between 2016 and 2026 — the county the listings on this page put Atkins in. The most recent event meeting the dataset's severity definition was a hail report measuring 1.00 in (Quarter - Half Dollar) on August 12, 2026, a preliminary report that has not yet been through NOAA's quality-control review.
We have not modeled a cost index for Atkins. The national baseline puts a full roof replacement at $5,625–$27,000 and a repair at $250–$3,500; local labor, permit fees and access move both.

Roofers within 20 miles of Atkins
Atkins has 2 roofing listings of its own, shown above. 145 more listings are based in other towns within 20 miles. Below are the top 12, one card per company, ranked the same way as the list above: verified listings first, then by Google reviews, rating and name.
Each card names the town the business is based in and its straight-line distance from Atkins. Being based nearby is not the same as working in Atkins — ask whether they cover your address.
Licensing for roofers working in Atkins
Iowa does not license roofing contractors. It requires them to register with the Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing, and that requirement covers work in Atkins.
Registration and licensure are not the same thing — a registration number records that a business completed a filing, and it sits alongside, not instead of, a permit and an inspection through Benton County or the city.

* The most recent data year is partial. NOAA publishes storm reports on a rolling basis and the final months are still being processed, so a low count in the last year is not evidence of a quiet year. The curated archive behind these counts runs through May 31, 2026; anything later sits in the preliminary block below.
Notable events in the archive
- Aug 10, 2020 -- Thunderstorm Wind (126 kt gust)
- Jul 11, 2020 -- Hail (Baseball hail, 2.00 in)
- May 17, 2017 -- Thunderstorm Wind (70 kt gust) -- $25K property damage reported
- Jul 17, 2016 -- Tornado (EF2)
- Jul 17, 2016 -- Tornado (EF1) -- $25K property damage reported
Selected by the dataset’s own rule rather than by editorial choice: the largest hail, the peak wind gust, the strongest tornado and the two costliest events by recorded property damage, deduplicated and newest first. Any dollar figure above is NOAA’s recorded estimate for that one event.
Preliminary — not yet in the permanent archive
11 preliminary storm reports have been filed for Benton County since June 1, 2026: 9 thunderstorm wind events and 2 hail reports. The largest hail in the window is 1.00 in (Quarter - Half Dollar), reported August 12, 2026. The strongest gust reported is 74 kt (about 85 mph), on June 17, 2026.
Preliminary reports covering 2026-05-31 onward come from National Weather Service storm reports filed as events occur. They have not yet been through the quality-control review that produces the permanent archive, and individual reports may later be revised, combined or withdrawn. NOAA Storm Prediction Center storm reports.
What these counts cover. County figures count events NOAA recorded against a county (hail, thunderstorm wind and tornadoes). High wind, winter storms, ice storms, blizzards, heavy snow, hurricanes and tropical storms are recorded against National Weather Service forecast zones rather than counties, so they are reported at state level instead. Counts reflect events that were observed and reported.
“Significant” on this page means an event meeting any one of three tests: hail 1.00 in across or larger, a wind gust of 58 kt or more (the National Weather Service severe thunderstorm criterion), or any tornado. It is a severity definition used by this dataset and is not an official NOAA classification.
The damage figure. $50,000 is the sum of NOAA’s recorded property-damage estimates across every event in Benton County over the period — a county total, not a figure for any one property, any one building or any one claim. NOAA records these figures as estimates made at the time of reporting. They are not adjusted for inflation, and they are frequently absent or zero — a zero means nothing was recorded, not that nothing was damaged.
Source. Archived figures come from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information Storm Events Database, covering 2016 through May 31, 2026. Anything after that date comes from NOAA Storm Prediction Center preliminary storm reports and is labelled preliminary wherever it appears. Both are US Government works in the public domain.
