Hickory Roof Pros provides professional storm damage restoration in Hickory, NC for residential and commercial properties across Catawba County and the Unifour. Storm work in the Catawba Valley is rarely confined to one slope. A line of severe thunderstorms drops limbs on the upper planes, and the debris and water they release all land on the lower ones. We survey the whole drainage path before writing anything.
That sequencing matters. A limb strike on an upper gable can look minor from the ground while the real damage sits four feet below it, where the branch bounced and drove granules off a receiving plane that was already thin. Adjusters who scope only the impact point miss that. We photograph the strike, then photograph what is directly downslope of it, and put both in the file.
The rebuild order follows the water. Deck and framing repair first, then edge metal and membrane on any plane that receives from above, then wall terminations with proper kickouts, then the field. Crews that shingle first and flash second finish faster and leave you a roof that leaks in the same place it leaked before, because the transitions were fitted around finished courses.
We also read the arithmetic on the paperwork. A full restoration that picks up roof, gutters, fascia and siding on one contract becomes a single undertaking, and G.S. 87-1 attaches the North Carolina general contractor requirement once that undertaking reaches $40,000. Roof-only work on a house here usually stays well under it. A bundled storm rebuild frequently does not, so the question of who may lawfully hold the contract changes with the scope.
Temporary protection comes before any of it. We dry in with mechanically fastened underlayment or a battened tarp anchored above the damage rather than through it, and we set the anchor line high enough that the fix is not itself a row of new holes in a sound plane. Interior protection matters too. We cover contents, set containment under an open ceiling, and tell you which rooms to stay out of until the framing has been checked.
What we will not do is convert a storm call into a whole-house sale by default. Plenty of files in this county come down to one upper plane, one lower plane and a gutter run. If that is what the evidence shows, that is what we scope. Where a carrier's estimate falls short of what the roof needs, we would rather argue that line with photographs than pad the parts nobody questions.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — kickout diverters soldered rather than caulked at the wall termination, self-adhered membrane run across the full receiving plane, headwall flashing tucked behind the wall covering on a two-story elevation, three by four downspout outlets set at the low end of the lower run, a doubled starter band laid in the impact strip below an upper eave, 26-gauge painted W-valley metal beneath an open valley cut — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Hickory and nearby communities including Newton, Conover, Long View, St. Stephens.

Materials, equipment and how we do storm damage restoration
The difference between storm damage restoration that lasts and storm damage restoration that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with kickout diverters soldered rather than caulked at the wall termination, self-adhered membrane run across the full receiving plane, headwall flashing tucked behind the wall covering on a two-story elevation, three by four downspout outlets set at the low end of the lower run, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Hickory job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Catawba County and the Unifour means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Hickory Chooses Hickory Roof Pros
- ✓We grade planes, not roofs. A stacked Hickory house gets a separate condition note for each slope, and you keep that sheet whether or not you hire us.
- ✓Receiving planes get a membrane across the full field rather than the customary three-foot eave strip, because the water landing there does not stop three feet up.
- ✓Kickout diverters go on every roof-to-wall termination we build. They cost very little and they are missing from most of the brick-veneer stock in this county.
- ✓We will quote a partial replacement when the lower roof is finished and the field is not, and we will tell you plainly what the color mismatch will look like.
The standards behind storm damage restoration
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The storm damage restoration work we do in Hickory follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
