After a storm, the damage that matters is often the damage you cannot see from the ground. Mabrey Roofing performs a free, no-obligation storm inspection, documents wind and hail damage with detailed photos and drone footage, and gives you a written report you can use to file your claim with confidence. We work directly with your insurer throughout, and we restore your roof to better than it was.

No phone tag. Tell us what is going on and we take it from there.
On approved credit. Estimate only, not an offer to lend.
Act promptly. Most North Carolina homeowner policies require you to report storm damage soon after it happens, often within 30 to 60 days, so the smart first move is a documented inspection before small damage spreads or a deadline passes.

Damage worth filing on usually means wind-creased or missing shingles, hail bruising on shingles and metal, granules washed into your gutters, or lifted flashing after a Triangle storm. Mabrey Roofing inspects free, photographs every damaged area, and hands you a written report you can submit yourself. We are not a public adjuster, do not negotiate your claim or your deductible, and never guarantee a coverage outcome.
We get on the roof and document wind and hail damage with close-up photos and drone footage, the same day when we can.
You get the documentation you need to file your claim with confidence. We meet your adjuster on-site and walk them through every area of damage.

Signs to Watch For. Caught Early, Fixed for Less.
If any of these sound familiar, book a free documented inspection — slope-by-slope photos, a straight answer on how much life the roof has left, and one fixed price if it is time. If a repair is the smarter spend, that is what we will tell you.
Hail Bruising vs. Blistering: The Difference That Decides a Claim
- Hail bruise: granules look intact but the mat underneath feels soft and fractured
- Blister: a raised-edge crater missing asphalt, with firm material under it
- Blisters are evenly sized and on every slope; hail is random and storm-facing
- We press-test by hand, not from a ground photo, before calling anything hail
Soft-Metal Collateral: The Evidence That Confirms the Hail Was Real
- Gutters, drip edge, vent caps, and AC fins dent before shingles show damage
- Matching dent sizes across soft metals confirm the hail size and direction
- This collateral is the first thing an adjuster uses to verify the storm hit
- We document it on the same visit, facing the same slopes as the shingle damage
Wind-Lift Signs: A Creased Shingle Is Damaged, an Unsealed One May Not Be
- Wind flaps a tab, snaps the seal strip, and can crease the mat behind it
- A crease is a real mat fracture and a future leak; an unsealed tab alone often is not
- Age and poor installation can unseal tabs with no storm involved
- Calling out only true creases and tears keeps the claim credible
Granule Loss: Reading the Pattern, Not Just the Pile in the Gutter
- Uniform, diffuse thinning on sunny slopes reads as normal aging
- Sharp-edged bare spots clustered on storm-facing slopes read as impact
- Bare asphalt has lost its UV shield and cracks within a year or two here
- We map the shape and location of the loss, not just the volume in the gutter
Documentation That Holds Up: Photos, Dates, and a Written Report
- Close-up photos of each damaged area, labeled by slope and location
- Collateral evidence tied to the dated storm event for your area
- A written, slope-by-slope report you submit with your own claim
- Every line is something we can show you; no padding, no maybes
Adjuster-Walkthrough Prep, and the Line North Carolina Law Draws
- We meet the adjuster on-site and walk every documented item with them
- We are your contractor, not a public adjuster; we do not negotiate the claim
- Only a licensed public adjuster or attorney can argue a claim for a fee in NC
- Your deductible is yours; NC law bars any roofer from waiving or rebating it
