The Best Storm Damage Inspections in the Lowcountry
A roof can take real hail or wind damage without an obvious leak to show for it, the kind of damage an insurer needs documented before a claim can move forward. BB Roofing inspects storm-damaged roofs across the Lowcountry. Call 843-379-3033 to schedule an inspection.
What We’re Actually Looking For
Hail damage often shows up as bruising and granule loss rather than an obvious hole: soft spots you can feel more than see, and dark patches where the shingle’s protective layer has been knocked loose. Wind does different damage: lifted or creased shingles, flashing pulled away from a valley or edge, and fasteners that have backed out just enough to let water start working underneath.
Part of the job is separating storm damage from wear that was already there before the storm, since age-related granule loss and years of UV exposure can look similar to fresh damage at a glance, and getting that distinction right matters for what happens next with a claim.
Why the Timing and Documentation Matter
We photograph and document what we find and tie it to the specific storm event, since most policies have a window for filing after a qualifying storm and an adjuster will want dated evidence, not just a description. Getting an inspection done soon after a storm, before any repair work touches the roof, keeps that documentation clean.
We provide our findings for you to bring to your insurance company; we’re a roofing contractor, not a public adjuster, so decisions about coverage and claim value are between you and your carrier. What we can do is make sure you’re walking into that conversation with an accurate, professional record of the roof’s actual condition.

Storm Damage Inspections FAQs
How do I know if my roof has hail damage?
Hail damage is often not visible from the ground. If a storm with hail or high wind has passed through your area, an inspection is the only reliable way to know for sure.
Is the storm damage inspection free?
Yes, the inspection itself is free. If repair or replacement work is needed, we’ll walk you through a separate estimate for that.
Should I schedule this before or after I file a claim?
Either works, but inspecting first gives you documentation to reference when you file, rather than filing on a guess.
What happens if the inspection doesn’t find storm damage?
We’ll tell you that directly. We’re not going to manufacture damage to justify a claim. An honest inspection is worth more than a padded one.
Get the Damage on Record Before It’s Gone
Storm damage doesn’t always announce itself, and evidence gets harder to document the longer it sits. We’ve inspected roofs across this coast after every kind of storm this area sees. Call 843-379-3033 and we’ll get eyes on your roof and tell you exactly what we find.
