After a hurricane, tropical storm, or severe weather event, your roof may be hiding damage you can’t see from the ground.

Why every storm deserves a professional inspection
Southeast Louisiana is one of the most storm-prone regions in the country. From direct hurricane landfalls to the relentless wind, rain, and hail that come with Gulf Coast storm systems, roofs here take a beating that most of the country never experiences.
High humidity and heat accelerate shingle deterioration even between storms, meaning damage from the last major event can quietly worsen over time. After Hurricane Ida, Hurricane Zeta, and dozens of tropical systems before them, we’ve seen firsthand how quickly minor storm damage becomes a costly structural problem when left unaddressed.

Common questions about storm damage roof inspections
Get answers to what homeowners across Southeast Louisiana most often ask before scheduling a storm damage roof inspection Southeast Louisiana crews can complete quickly.
How long does a storm damage roof inspection take?
Most residential inspections take 30–60 minutes on-site, depending on roof size and accessibility. We walk the roof, check the attic for interior signs of intrusion, and photograph every area of concern before providing you with a written summary.
Do I need an inspection if I don’t see visible damage?
Yes. Many forms of storm damage (granule loss, lifted shingle tabs, cracked flashing) aren’t visible from the ground or even from inside your home. A professional storm damage roof inspection in Southeast Louisiana catches issues before they become active leaks. If damage is found, our storm damage roof repair services can typically begin right away.
Will this help with my insurance claim?
Our inspection reports are built specifically to support homeowner insurance claims, with dated photos and a written summary your adjuster can reference directly, often shortening the time it takes to get a claim approved. Louisiana law requires your insurer to begin the loss adjustment process within 30 days of your claim; you can review your rights directly through the Louisiana Department of Insurance.
