Repair Damaged Y10-7-13?

[Charles]

As you can see from the attached photo, during a recent storm my Antenna Craft Y10-7-13 was damaged. Is it possible to repair it versus getting a new one? I was able to bend the boom, back to almost horizontal, however the metal at the bend is fatigued. I thought that it might be plausible to attach some kind of splint to add strength to it. Also the front directors are bent, and while I have not yet tried to straighten them, it may be possible. Having just learned that insurance will not pay to replace it, I would like to keep my cost to a minimum, but not at a cost of losing my signal receiving strength. Any thoughts?

It has been a few days since I created the post above, let me add another thought and then see if someone jumps in. I am a novice when it comes to antenna reception, but I am aware that small changes can affect reception. One of my concerns is that adding any kind of repair material might negatively affect reception. I am approximately 35 to 45 miles from the stations that I need to pull in, is it possible that any alterations that I make to the antenna might cause a problem with reception.

I'm at an age now where I am no longer allowed to climb up on the roof, any antenna work will involve a service call. I would much prefer to limit it to one service call, either to repair it, or to replace it.
