Storm damage roof repair and restoration

After a storm, you need to know what happened to your roof. We inspect it, document the damage, make emergency repairs where needed, and replace the roof when repair is not enough.

Overview

Storm damage in Fredericksburg and Northern Virginia

Northern Virginia gets severe thunderstorms, high winds, occasional hail and the remnants of tropical systems. Damage is not always visible from the ground, and a roof that looks fine can still have lifted shingles, bruised areas or compromised flashing.

We offer free storm damage inspections, make emergency repairs for exposed or leaking areas, and replace storm-damaged roofs. We also help homeowners with the insurance claim process.

Hail damage

How it works

What to expect, start to finish

  1. Stay safe and document

    From the ground, photograph what you can see. Do not climb onto a damaged roof.

  2. Free inspection

    We inspect and document the damage, including areas you cannot see.

  3. Protect and plan

    Emergency repairs go first where needed, then we plan the permanent repair or replacement.

  4. Claim support

    We provide documentation you can share with your insurance company.

Honest considerations

Things worth weighing

  • We cannot promise an insurance outcome. Coverage is decided by your policy and your insurer.
  • Damage can be hidden. An inspection by someone who works on roofs every day is worth having even if nothing looks wrong.
  • Check your policy for claim deadlines after a storm.

Questions

Storm damage: common questions

What should I do first after a storm?

Stay safe, and photograph visible damage from the ground. Cover or contain interior leaks where you safely can, and call a roofer for an inspection. Do not climb onto the roof.

Will insurance pay for my roof?

That depends on your policy, the damage and your insurer. We cannot promise a result, but we can inspect, document and work with your insurance company.

Can you tell if my roof has hail damage?

Yes. Hail damage shows up as dents, bruising, cracked shingles or missing granules, and it is often easier to see up close than from the ground.

Do you make emergency repairs?

Yes. We can protect exposed or actively leaking areas so your home is protected until a permanent repair is done.
