The Storms That Damage Greensboro Properties
Tornadoes
On April 15, 2018 an EF-2 tornado touched down on I-40 in Greensboro and damaged three elementary schools, according to the National Weather Service. Another set of tornadoes touched down near High Point and Whitsett in March 2021. Wind can open a roof in seconds and rain does the rest.
Ice storms and falling limbs
Ice storms are a recurring pattern in the Piedmont, according to the North Carolina State Climate Office. Ice-loaded limbs and trees land on roofs, siding and power lines, and outages leave pipes exposed to freezing.
Tropical remnants and creek flooding
Remnants of tropical systems stall over the Piedmont and fill creeks quickly. Water enters through low doors, crawl space vents and storm-opened roofs, so storm work often combines tarping, water extraction and drying.

Signs You Need Storm Damage Restoration, and What To Do First
- Missing or lifted shingles, or a tree limb on the roof
- Water stains on ceilings after wind-driven rain
- Broken windows, doors, or siding
- Water in the lower-level or crawl space after a flash flood
- Ice-laden limbs or trees down on the roof after an ice storm
- A musty smell in the attic in the weeks after a storm
Stay away from downed power lines and do not enter a flooded lower-level until the power is off. If it is safe, cover openings and move valuables away from leaks, take photos of the damage, and call (336) 705-6767 so we can tarp, board up, and start drying.
What Affects the Scope and Timeline
The scope depends on how the storm got in: through the roof, through broken openings, or through the lower-level. Wind and hail damage often lets water into attics and wall cavities, where it spreads before stains appear. We inspect the whole path of the water and document it for your adjuster.
Tarping and board-up happen the same day. Drying usually takes 3 to 5 days, and repairs follow, with timing that depends on roofing and material availability after widespread storms.
What We Restore After a Storm
- Roofs and attics after wind and hail
- Ceilings and drywall after wind-driven rain
- Crawl spaces and slab floors and crawl spaces after flash floods
- Windows, doors, and siding
- Roofs and ceilings after tornadoes and fallen trees
- Garages and outbuildings
- Contents and furniture
- Commercial roofs and storefronts
