STORM & INSURANCE
Storm Damage
Wind, hail, and fallen-tree damage handled start to finish — including the insurance claim, so you're not doing it alone.
We work with insurance companies every week — and we'll walk you through your claim from start to finish.
Storm Damage, Handled From Start to Finish
West Virginia weather doesn’t go easy on roofs. High winds lift and tear shingles, hail bruises the surface and shortens roof life, and falling limbs can open a roof up in seconds. Some of the worst damage isn’t obvious from the ground — which is exactly why a free, professional inspection after a storm is worth it.
We handle the whole thing: the inspection, emergency protection if you need it, the insurance claim, and the final repair. You shouldn’t have to fight with an adjuster and chase down contractors while your house is exposed.
Does Insurance Cover It?
In most cases, yes. If the damage was caused by a storm, wind, hail, or a fallen tree, your homeowners insurance should cover all or most of the repair or replacement. A lot of homeowners are surprised to learn they’re fully covered. We do this every week, and we’ll help you document the damage properly so nothing gets missed.
Don’t Wait It Out
Storm damage gets worse with every rain that follows. A lifted shingle lets water in; that water spreads, rots, and turns a quick repair into a major one. If a storm just came through, let us take a look — there’s no cost and no obligation, and you’ll know exactly where you stand.

Common questions
How much does a new roof cost in West Virginia?
Most residential roof replacements in West Virginia cost between $8,000 and $15,000 depending on the size of your home, the materials you choose, and the condition of the existing roof. We offer free inspections and detailed estimates so you know exactly what you're paying for before any work starts. No surprises, no hidden fees.
How do I know if I need a roof replacement or just a repair?
If the damage is limited to a small area, like a few missing shingles or a minor leak, a repair is usually all you need. But if your roof is over 20 years old, has widespread damage, or you're seeing issues in multiple spots, a full replacement is going to save you more money in the long run. We'll always be honest about which option makes the most sense for your home.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roofs are completed in a single day. Larger or more complex jobs might take two days, but we don't drag things out. Our crews show up early, work efficiently, and clean up before we leave. You won't be dealing with a torn-up roof overnight unless the weather forces us to pause.
Does homeowners insurance cover roof replacement?
In most cases, yes. If the damage was caused by a storm, wind, hail, or a fallen tree, your homeowners insurance should cover all or most of the replacement. We work with insurance companies regularly and can help walk you through the claims process from start to finish. A lot of homeowners are surprised to find out they're fully covered.
What's the best roofing material for West Virginia weather?
Architectural shingles are the most popular choice for homes in West Virginia because they handle heavy rain, wind, and snow really well and they last 30 years or more. Standing seam metal roofing is another great option if you want something that lasts even longer with virtually no maintenance. We'll help you pick the right material based on your roof, your budget, and what matters most to you.
What's the difference between a roof overlay and a full tear-off?
A roof overlay means new shingles go right over the old ones. A full tear-off means we strip everything down to the deck and start fresh. Building code does allow overlays in some cases, but you can't stack more than two layers and you shouldn't overlay a roof that's worn out, soft, or water-damaged. Even when it's allowed, we usually recommend against it. Overlays hide bad decking, old leaks, and weak spots you can't see until it's too late. They can also limit or void certain manufacturer warranty coverage. A full tear-off lets us inspect the wood, fix any damage, and install everything the right way from the start. It costs a little more up front, but it gives you a better roof that's going to last a lot longer.
Do you offer a warranty on your roofing work?
Yes. Every roof we install comes with a workmanship warranty from us, plus the manufacturer's warranty on the materials. If something goes wrong because of our installation, we come back and fix it at no cost to you.
Can you replace my roof in one day?
In most cases, yes. The majority of our residential roof replacements are completed in a single day. We bring a full crew, show up ready to work, and don't leave until the job is done and the yard is clean. Many of our customers tell us they came home from work to a brand new roof with no trace we were ever there.
