Storm damage repair in Charlotte, NC. Roofs, siding and the rebuild inside.

Wind, hail and fallen trees can damage a roof, siding, a fence and the rooms underneath. We repair what the storm broke, working from your insurance estimate, so you deal with one contractor.

What storms do to a house

  • Roofs — Missing or lifted shingles, damaged flashing, and holes from falling limbs.

  • Siding, trim and fascia — Wind-driven damage, impact from branches and water getting behind the siding.

  • Fences and outbuildings — Panels and posts blown over or crushed by a tree.

  • Decks and porches — Impact damage and structural damage from falling limbs.

  • The rooms inside — Ceilings, insulation, drywall and floors wet from a leak or damaged by a falling tree.

Where we fit in the process

After a storm the first calls are to your insurance company and to whoever can stop more damage, such as a company that places a temporary cover on the roof. Once the home is safe and the claim is open, we take on the repair: the roof, the exterior and the interior work that follows.

Take photos of everything before it is moved, write down the date and what happened, and keep receipts for anything you paid for to protect the house. Your insurance company can tell you what your policy requires.

Working from your insurance estimate

Insurance companies pay based on their estimate of the damage. We read your adjuster’s estimate with you, compare it to what we see on the roof and in the rooms, and write an itemized scope with photos that you can share with them. If we find damage that is not in the estimate, such as decking soaked under shingles once the old roof is off, we document it so it can be submitted for review.

Your insurance company decides what is covered, and we do not speak for them. We make the scope and the photos clear so the conversation is easier for you.

Roof, exterior and interior, in order

Storm repairs go best in a sensible order. The roof comes first, so water stops getting in. Then siding, fascia and other exterior repairs, then the interior: insulation, drywall, flooring and paint. Fences and yard work can follow.

The roof has its own page with the details on repair versus replacement: roof repair and replacement. For a fence, see fence repair.

Permits for storm repairs

Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement says permits are not required for some residential work, but are required when the repair involves load-bearing structures, roofing that is added rather than replaced like for like, or structural, electrical, plumbing or mechanical work. Repairing rafters or trusses, for example, is structural. Replacing shingles with like-grade material is treated differently. We pull permits when the repair calls for them.

Storm Damage Repair: common questions

Something else? Call (704) 977-6512 or send us a note.

Do you work with my insurance company?

We work with your insurance claim. We look at the damage, write an itemized scope and give you photos and a written estimate you can share with your adjuster. Your insurance company decides what is covered, and we do not speak for them.

Should I fix the roof before or after the insurance adjuster comes?

Call your insurance company first and ask what it requires. Take photos before anything is moved. Your insurer can tell you how your policy handles temporary protection and repairs.

Can you repair a roof and the inside of the house together?

Yes. That is the benefit of one contractor. The roof comes first, then the exterior and the interior, and the scope covers all of it.

What if the storm damaged more than the estimate shows?

We document it with photos and a written scope so it can be submitted for review.

Do you cover a tree that fell on the house?

We repair the structure, roof and interior damage that results. Removing the tree itself is a separate trade, and your insurance company can point you to how it is handled under your policy.

Can I choose my own contractor?

In most cases the choice of contractor is yours. Your insurance company can explain how your policy handles it.
