Storm and hail damage roof repair in Raleigh

Spring and summer thunderstorms bring hail and straight-line wind to the Triangle, and tropical systems can bring wind-driven rain inland. Signs your roof may have storm damage:

  • Missing, creased or lifted shingles after high wind
  • Dents or bruises on shingles, vents, gutters and downspouts after hail
  • Granules collecting in gutters or at downspout outlets
  • Water stains on ceilings or in the attic
  • Fallen limbs or debris on the roof

Hail damage is often invisible from the street. See hail damage roof repair in Raleigh for how to check safely, and our Raleigh storm and hail damage guide for documenting damage for insurance.

How often does hail hit Raleigh?

NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center (SPC) database lists 73 hail reports within 5 miles (8 km) of downtown Raleigh from 1955 to 2024, 41 of them for hail 1 inch or larger (SPC severe weather database). Triangle thunderstorms also bring straight-line wind, and tropical systems can push wind-driven rain inland in late summer and fall. Not every storm damages a roof, which is why we inspect and photograph before saying a roof was hit. Before the next one, see our hurricane season roof prep checklist.

What to do after a storm damages your roof

  1. Stay safe. Stay off the roof and away from downed lines.
  2. Photograph what you can from the ground. Shingles in the yard, dented gutters, ceiling stains, the date and time.
  3. Stop the water. Catch drips inside; if the roof is open, call us during office hours for storm tarping and leak repair.
  4. Tell your insurer promptly if you plan to file a claim, and keep receipts for anything you do to prevent more damage.
  5. Be careful with door-knockers. Do not sign anything on the spot; ask for a local address and a written scope.

Storm tarping

When a storm opens up your roof, the first job is keeping water out. We offer storm tarping to cover damaged areas until a permanent repair or replacement can be made.

Our storm damage process

  1. Protect. If water is getting in, we tarp the damaged area.
  2. Inspect. A free inspection with photos of every damaged area, including gutters, vents and siding.
  3. Document. You get the photos and a written scope you can share with your insurer.
  4. Meet the adjuster. We will meet any insurance adjuster on site and walk the roof with them.
  5. Repair or replace. Once you decide how to proceed, we schedule the work. Timing depends on roof size, weather and any decking repairs, and we give you a schedule before work starts.

Insurance help

If wind, hail or a fallen limb caused the damage, your homeowner’s policy may help. We document the damage with photos, can tarp an active leak to prevent more damage, and will meet any insurance adjuster on site. Your policy and your adjuster decide what is covered; we will not promise a claim outcome.

Should I repair or replace a storm-damaged roof?

It depends on how widespread the damage is and the roof’s condition. We show you photos and give you both options when both make sense.

How can I tell if hail damaged my roof?

Hail often leaves no damage you can see from the street. From the ground, look for dents in gutters, downspouts, vents and mailboxes and for granules washed out at downspouts. On the roof, hail hits show up as dark bruises where granules were knocked off, or as cracked shingles. Stay off the roof; we inspect and photograph every damaged area.

What should I do right after a storm damages my roof?

Stay safe and off the roof, photograph what you can from the ground, catch any drips inside, and call (919) 794-5754 during office hours, Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–4 p.m., if the roof is open and needs a tarp. Tell your insurer promptly if you plan to file a claim, and do not sign anything with a door-to-door contractor on the spot.
