DIY vs Cheap Contractor vs North Bay Roofing Co.

After a storm, you might think about patching it yourself or hiring the lowest bidder. We've seen the results of both — and they usually cost more in the long run. Here's how we stack up.

Real Storm Damage Repair: A Novato Home Saved

We don't just talk about storm damage repair—we've lived it with our neighbors. Here's a recent job that shows exactly how we work.

In January 2024, a severe windstorm tore through Novato's Ignacio neighborhood, ripping shingles off a 1,800-square-foot home on Diablo Avenue. The homeowners called us frantic, with water already pooling in their attic. We arrived within two hours, tarped the exposed sections, and assessed the damage. The roof—an aging 20-year-old 3-tab asphalt—was a total loss. We recommended a full replacement using Malarkey Vista AR shingles (Class 4 impact rating, algae-resistant) to withstand future storms. Our crew of five completed the tear-off, underlayment, and new installation in three days. We also filed the insurance claim on their behalf, saving them $2,300 in deductibles and stress. The final result? A watertight roof with a 25-year workmanship warranty and a 4.9-star Google review from the homeowner. They've since referred three neighbors. That's the North Bay Roofing Co. difference—storm damage repair you can trust, from people who live here.

Storm Damage Repair: Your Top Questions Answered

When a storm hits Novato, you need straight answers fast. Here are the most common questions we get from homeowners dealing with storm damage — no fluff, just the facts from our 19 years on the ground.

How quickly can you respond to a storm damage call in Novato?

We aim to be on-site within 24 hours of your call. Our crew is local — we live and work right here in Novato, so we can get to your home fast. After the 2023 winter storms, we had teams out on Grant Avenue and the Ignacio neighborhood by the next morning. Call (844) 640-4622 and we'll get you on the schedule.

Do you work with my insurance company for storm damage claims?

Yes, we do. We've helped hundreds of North Bay homeowners navigate insurance claims after storms. We'll document the damage thoroughly, provide a detailed estimate, and even meet your adjuster on-site to make sure nothing gets missed. We're licensed (CA CSLB #1043871), insured, and know exactly what insurers look for.

What types of storm damage do you repair?

We handle it all — wind damage that lifts shingles or tears them off, hail damage that leaves those telltale dents, fallen tree limbs that puncture your roof, and water damage from heavy rain. We've worked with Malarkey, CertainTeed, GAF, Owens Corning, IKO, and Atlas materials, so we can match your existing roof or recommend a premium upgrade.

Should I try to fix storm damage myself to save money?

We strongly advise against DIY repairs on storm damage. A patch job might seem cheaper upfront, but it often leads to bigger leaks, voided warranties, and missed damage that your insurance would have covered. We've seen it happen on houses near the Hamilton area — a quick fix turned into a full replacement. Let us do it right the first time.

How much does storm damage repair cost in Novato?

Cost varies based on the extent of the damage, your roof type, and whether it's a repair or full replacement. Minor repairs might run a few hundred dollars, while major storm damage can be several thousand. The good news is most homeowners insurance covers storm damage minus your deductible. We'll give you a free, no-obligation estimate — call (844) 640-4622 to schedule.

Do you offer a warranty on storm damage repairs?

Absolutely. All our roof replacements come with a 25-year workmanship warranty, and repairs are backed by our standard workmanship guarantee. Plus, we use premium materials from manufacturers like Malarkey and GAF that carry their own warranties. You're covered on both sides — our labor and their product.

What areas of the North Bay do you serve for storm damage?

We serve all of Marin County and the North Bay, including Novato, San Rafael, Petaluma, Santa Rosa, and everywhere in between. We've worked on homes off Redwood Boulevard, near the San Marin neighborhood, and out in the rural areas around Stafford Lake. Wherever you are, we can get there.

What Our Customers Say

4.7 stars · 225+ verified reviews

North Bay Roofing Co. replaced our 22-year-old shingle roof in two days flat. The crew was respectful of our landscaping, cleaned up every nail, and the GAF system they installed looks incredible. The price was fair and they filed the permit without us having to chase it. Will absolutely call them again.

After a winter storm tore off two sections of our flashing, North Bay Roofing Co. was on-site within 24 hours. They tarped the exposed decking that same afternoon, walked us through the insurance claim process, and had the permanent repair done by end of week. Honest estimates, no upsell pressure.

I called for a pre-purchase inspection on a home in Petaluma. The inspector found two soft spots the listing agent hadn't mentioned, documented everything with photos, and gave me a written repair estimate I could use in negotiations. Saved me thousands.
