Greensboro Roofing FAQs
Greensboro homeowners ask the same core roofing questions — storm damage, insurance, pricing, warranties, and how the whole process works. This page gives you clear, local, real-world answers from Old Timers Roofing Inc., your trusted roofing team right here in the Triad.
Storm Damage FAQs
How do I know if my roof has storm damage?
Start with StormTrace™ — it shows the exact NOAA-verified wind and hail history for your address. Then we perform a full roof + attic inspection to confirm real damage with photos and ventilation checks.
Next step: Run StormTrace™
What does storm damage actually look like?
Think creased shingles, missing tabs, lifted edges, hail bruises, impact divots, broken seals, and granule displacement. Inside the attic, moisture readings and ventilation imbalance also tell the real story.
How long after a storm can I file an insurance claim?
Most NC carriers allow 1–2 years from the storm date — StormTrace shows you the exact qualifying dates.
Insurance & Adjuster FAQs
Does StormTrace™ qualify my home for insurance?
No — StormTrace™ provides history, not damage. Insurance coverage depends on what’s physically on your roof.
Start with the data: StormTrace™ Report
What does an insurance adjuster look for on a roof?
Wind creasing, missing shingles, hail bruising, torn edges, impact marks, broken seals, flashing displacement, and attic moisture imbalance. We meet your adjuster on-site to ensure accuracy and fairness.
Can I choose my own roofing contractor?
Yes — NC law protects your right to choose ANY licensed contractor. Insurance companies cannot assign one on your behalf.

My claim was denied — can Old Timers Roofing Inc. help?
Absolutely. Many denials are overturned when proper documentation is submitted. We handle re-inspections, evidence gathering, photos, attic findings, measurement reports, and full adjuster coordination.
Estimates & Pricing FAQs
How accurate is the Instant Roof Estimate?
It’s highly accurate. The tool uses verified satellite measurements to calculate roofing ranges instantly. Your final estimate is refined after an inspection to confirm materials, attic conditions, and ventilation needs.
How long does a roof replacement usually take?
Most Greensboro roofs take one day. Larger or specialty systems (metal, rubber, designer shingles) typically take one to two days.
Financing FAQs
Do you offer monthly financing?
Yes — through Hearth. See monthly payment plans in 60 seconds with no credit impact. Perfect for upgrades, emergencies, and budget planning.
Shingles & Warranty FAQs
What shingles do you install?
Atlas Pinnacle® Pristine, StormMaster® Shake (with Core4® technology), metal roofing, rubber systems, and designer slate. All come with Atlas warranties + our lifetime workmanship warranty.
Will filing a roof claim raise my insurance premium?
No. Homeowners are not penalized individually — rates rise regionally after major storms whether you file or not.
Real Estate Seller FAQs
Do you work with sellers or real estate agents?
Yes — our RoofEquity™ program helps homeowners boost property value before listing, often using insurance funds to upgrade the roof.
Service Areas
Which areas do you serve?
Greensboro, High Point, Jamestown, Summerfield, Oak Ridge, Kernersville, Stokesdale, Brown Summit, and the surrounding Guilford County neighborhoods.

People Also Ask (Greensboro Roofing)
What should I do first if I think my roof has storm damage?
Start by running a StormTrace™ report. It shows the exact wind and hail history for your address. If the data lines up with potential damage, schedule a free inspection so Old Timers Roofing Inc. can confirm everything with photos and attic checks.
How does insurance decide if my roof needs to be replaced?
Insurance looks for creased shingles, missing tabs, hail bruising, torn edges, and moisture indicators. They confirm this during an adjuster meeting. We meet the adjuster on-site to ensure the findings match what we see during your free inspection.
Does hail damage always mean I qualify for a new roof?
Not always. Qualification depends on the severity of the hail impacts and whether they broke the shingle mat. Old Timers Roofing Inc. checks the roof and attic, then helps document everything for your insurance claim. Data from StormTrace™ supports the timeline.
What is the fastest way to get a roof insurance claim started?
Begin by running a StormTrace™ report, then book a roof inspection. We will guide you on when to file the claim, what to say, and how to prepare for your adjuster meeting. This ensures the process starts clean without delays or missteps.
How do I know if my insurance adjuster missed something?
If your roof has visible wind creasing or hail spots but your claim was denied, a reinspection may be needed. Old Timers Roofing Inc. provides photo evidence, attic findings, and measurements for a second review. Most overturned denials come from missing evidence on the first visit.
How much does a new roof cost in Greensboro?
Prices vary based on size, pitch, materials, and ventilation needs. The fastest way to get a real range is using the Instant Roof Estimate tool. It uses satellite measurements to calculate realistic pricing before an in-person inspection.
Is financing available for full roof replacements?
Yes. Monthly payments are available through Hearth. Homeowners can see real financing options with no credit impact. This helps budget upgrades, repairs, or insurance deductible coverage. View plans here: Financing Options.
What’s the best roofing material for Greensboro weather?
For hail- and wind-prone areas, Atlas Pinnacle® Pristine and StormMaster® Shake (Core4® polymer) offer top performance. They include algae resistance, impact durability, and powerful warranties. Learn more here: Roof Replacement Overview.
How long does a full roof replacement take?
Most Greensboro roofs are completed in a single day. Larger or specialty systems take one to two days. Old Timers Roofing Inc. includes full cleanup, haul-off, and a lifetime workmanship warranty on every project.
What’s the most common reason roof claims get denied?
The top reason is “no storm-related damage found.” This usually means the first inspection lacked documentation. We handle reinspection setup and provide clear evidence to help correct the initial assessment. Schedule here: Free Inspection.
