Storm Damage Repair

When the Storm Hits, We Show Up

Georgia and Florida see some of the most severe weather in the country. From the spring thunderstorms that hammer North Georgia with hail and straight-line winds to the tropical systems that batter Tampa Bay every hurricane season, your roof takes the hit first. When it does, you need a contractor who responds fast, documents thoroughly, and restores your home right — not a storm chaser who disappears after cashing your insurance check.

Vintage Roofing has been repairing storm-damaged roofs since 2008. We’re a permanent local company with crews in both Georgia and Florida, and we stand behind every repair with manufacturer-backed warranties. When you call after a storm, we treat it like the emergency it is.

Types of Storm Damage We Repair

Not all storm damage is obvious from the ground. That’s why a professional inspection after any significant weather event is critical. Here’s what we commonly find and repair:

• Hail damage — Dents and bruises in shingles that compromise the granule layer, accelerating aging and creating leak paths. Often invisible from the ground but clearly identifiable up close.
• Wind damage — Lifted, creased, or missing shingles. High winds also break flashing seals and can peel back starter strips along eaves and rakes.
• Fallen trees and debris — Branches and limbs that puncture decking, crack ridge caps, or tear through entire sections of roofing material.
• Driving rain — Water intrusion through damaged flashing, exposed nail heads, or compromised underlayment after wind or hail has weakened the surface layer.

Our Insurance Claim Process

Filing an insurance claim after storm damage can feel overwhelming, but we handle it every week. Here’s how we make it straightforward:

First, we perform a thorough inspection and document every area of damage with high-resolution photos, measurements, and material specifications. This documentation is formatted specifically for insurance adjusters — we know what every major carrier requires. We then provide you with a detailed scope of work and estimate that matches industry-standard pricing (Xactimate).

When your adjuster visits, we’ll meet them on-site to walk the roof together and ensure nothing is missed. If the initial assessment undervalues the damage, we advocate on your behalf with supplemental documentation. We’ve worked with State Farm, Allstate, USAA, Liberty Mutual, and every major carrier operating in Georgia and Florida.

Emergency Tarping and Temporary Protection

When storm damage creates an immediate leak risk, we deploy emergency tarping to protect your home from further water intrusion. Our crews can typically tarp a damaged area within hours of your call, and this temporary protection stays in place until permanent repairs begin. The cost of emergency tarping is almost always covered by your homeowner’s insurance as part of the overall claim.
