We started to experience a significant roof leak as soon as Hurricane Helene's initial rain bands were coming through the area. The next day, as the worst part of the storm, rolled through, the water poured as if there was no roof there!


We contacted the StormSafe team and they were able to diagnose the problem and do a full repair IMMEDIATELY!   Within a few hours after the storm, the leak was completely mitigated  and all we had left was interior cleanup!


I highly recommend StormSafe to anyone in need of roofing services. Their dedication to excellence and customer care is second to none!

I recently had the pleasure of working with StormSafe Roofing and Exteriors for a roof repair project, and I was thoroughly impressed with their customer service.


From the initial phone call to the completion of the project, their team was friendly, responsive, and attentive to my needs. They kept me informed throughout the process and ensured that I was satisfied with the results.


Their commitment to customer satisfaction is commendable,  and   I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of roofing services.

We hired Thomas and Chad to replace our roof.


They made the process so easy and we are very pleased with the result.

It’s been over a week and we have only found 4 nails in the yard that came down out of the gutter.


Could not be happier with the scheduling and timely manner in which this was handled.  The crew was on time, respectful and did a great job cleaning up.
