Reconstruction Service
Storm Damage & Roof Reconstruction
Roof tear-off, structural repair, and full reconstruction after wind, hail, tornado, and tree-impact damage — coordinated with interior repairs.
Overview
What Storm & Roof Reconstruction Covers
Storm damage rarely respects boundaries. A single severe-weather event can take a roof off, drive water through three floors of finishes, snap framing members, and break a mature tree across the structure. Treating those as separate projects — calling a roofer, then a water mitigation team, then a general contractor — means weeks of delay and finger-pointing.
We handle the entire storm-loss rebuild as one scope: emergency tarp and board-up, structural assessment, roof tear-off and replacement, interior demo, framing repair, and full finish reconstruction. Working with the same carrier from day one means a single estimate, a single project manager, and a single warranty.
Common Causes
When This Service Applies
Wind & tornado damage
Roof system uplift, broken trusses, missing sheathing, and complete partial collapses requiring engineered repair.
Hail damage
Bruising of shingles, granule loss, dented metal flashing and gutters — often requiring full roof replacement to maintain warranty.
Tree impact
Falling limbs and full trees that puncture roof systems, damage exterior walls, and require structural framing repair.
Ice dams & snow load
Excessive snow load and ice damming that fail roof systems and force water into wall cavities and ceilings below.
Lightning damage
Strike damage to roof systems, attic framing, and electrical infrastructure — often with associated fire and water.
Storm surge & flooding
Ground-water intrusion that requires elevated rebuild specs, code-compliant materials, and coordination with flood policies.

Final inspection & warranty
Roof manufacturer warranty registration, building department final inspection, and our written workmanship warranty.
Warning Signs
When to Call a Reconstruction Contractor
If you're seeing any of these signs, it's time for a professional inspection — most are free, and early intervention dramatically reduces total rebuild scope and cost.
- Missing, cracked, or curled shingles after a storm
- Granules accumulating in gutters and downspouts
- Visible dents on metal roof panels, vents, or flashing
- Daylight visible through attic decking or rafters
- Water staining on ceilings, especially after rain
- Sagging gutters, fascia, or soffit panels
Insurance & Coverage
How Storm & Roof Reconstruction Claims Work
Wind and hail damage is covered by standard homeowner policies, but most carriers in storm-prone markets (TX, KY, TN) now apply a separate, higher percentage-based deductible for named storms. We document the loss with drone imagery, ladder inspection, and material samples — and we know which carriers are denying borderline hail claims so we can prepare proper documentation up front.

FAQ
Storm & Roof Reconstruction Questions, Answered
Should I file an insurance claim for hail damage?+
Get a free inspection first. If the damage warrants replacement, we'll walk you through whether filing makes sense given your deductible and the scope. We don't push claims that don't benefit the homeowner.
How quickly can you tarp a damaged roof?+
Within hours of your call, 24/7. Emergency mitigation is the first step we handle — preventing further interior damage while the rebuild scope is approved.
Will a new roof match my existing one?+
On most homes, yes. We carry the major manufacturers in current color lines. For older or discontinued products, we work with your adjuster on partial-vs-full replacement scopes.
What if a tree is still on my house?+
Tree removal is its own line item — typically covered by your policy. We coordinate certified removal crews and begin structural assessment as soon as the tree is clear.
Do you handle the interior damage too?+
Yes. That's the entire reason to hire one rebuild company instead of three separate trades. Roof, framing, drywall, paint, flooring — all under one project manager.
