Quick Answers
Storm Damage Repair FAQs
We get calls after every big storm. Here are the questions we hear most from Rockaway homeowners — straight answers from a local crew.
How soon can you get on my roof after a storm?
Same day if you call before noon. We keep crews ready for Rockaway storms — last year we had a truck on Green Pond Road within two hours of a hail cell passing. After that, we schedule within 48 hours. Call (973) 636-4945 for immediate help.
Do you work with my insurance company?
Yes. We help you file the claim, meet the adjuster on-site, and provide a detailed estimate that matches your policy language. We've worked with State Farm, Allstate, NJM, and Liberty Mutual on dozens of storm claims in Morris County. You don't pay until insurance pays.
What does storm damage repair cost in Rockaway?
It varies by damage type and roof size. A typical hail repair on a 30-square asphalt shingle roof runs $3,500 to $8,500. Wind damage with missing shingles is usually $1,200 to $4,000. We write every estimate by hand — no surprise fees. Get yours free: Tell Us About Your Roof.
Is storm damage repair better than a DIY patch?
DIY patches almost always fail in the next nor'easter. We've seen tarps blow off, mismatched shingles leak, and unsealed flashings rot decking. Our repairs match the existing shingle line (Malarkey, CertainTeed, GAF) and meet code. With a 50-year transferable warranty on select shingles, it's worth having a pro.
How do I know if my roof has hidden storm damage?
Look for granule loss in gutters, dented gutters or vents, curled or cracked shingles, and dark spots on ceilings inside. We do a free inspection — no obligation. We'll show you photos of every problem we find. If there's nothing, we say so. We live here, we fix here.
Do you handle emergency tarping and temporary repairs?
Yes. If a tree branch punched a hole or wind peeled back a section, we'll tarp it same day to stop interior water damage. We carry heavy-duty 6-mil poly and 2x4 lumber on every truck. After the emergency, we schedule the full repair. Call Now for Same-Day Help.
Are you licensed and insured for storm repairs?
Absolutely. NJ HIC #13VH08923400, $2 million liability insurance, bonded since 2011. We've had zero code violations in 15 years. Every job contract is hand-written — no fine print. You can check our BBB A+ rating or see our 4.9 Google stars from 200+ reviews.
