Storm Damage Roof Repair in Gretna, Louisiana
Gretna sits right across the Mississippi from New Orleans, and when a Gulf storm rolls through, the West Bank takes a beating.

Lainez Construction is based right here in Gretna — we know these streets, these rooflines, and exactly what a Louisiana storm does to them.

Storm Damage Repair for Gretna

It means a thorough inspection of decking, underlayment, flashing around chimneys and vents, gutters, and ridge caps — all the spots that quietly fail after a hard storm and turn into expensive leaks months later. We document everything with photos, walk you through what we found, and give you a clear written scope of work before a single nail goes down. Whether you took a direct hit from a named storm or just a fast-moving squall off the river, we repair the damage completely so your roof performs through the next season.

FAQ
Storm Damage Repair in Gretna — common questions
How soon can Lainez Construction inspect my roof after a storm in Gretna?
Because we're based in Gretna, we can typically reach you the same day or the following morning after a major storm event. We prioritize homes with active leaks or visibly missing shingles. Call us directly and we'll get you on the schedule fast.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover storm damage repairs?
Most standard homeowner's policies in Louisiana cover storm damage from wind and hail — but the documentation has to be solid. We provide detailed photo reports and itemized estimates that align with what adjusters look for, which helps move your claim forward.
My roof is older. Does it make sense to repair it or just replace it?
That depends on the extent of the damage and the overall condition of the roof. We'll tell you honestly after the inspection — if the storm damage is isolated and the rest of the roof is sound, a targeted repair is often the right call. If the damage is widespread or the decking is compromised, we'll explain why replacement may serve you better long-term.
Can you put a tarp on my roof right away to stop the leak?
Yes. Emergency tarping is something we can do quickly to protect your home and belongings while we schedule the permanent repair. It also helps prevent secondary water damage that can complicate your insurance claim.
Do you only handle big storm damage, or do you also fix minor wind damage?
We handle both. A few lifted or missing shingles after a thunderstorm is just as worth fixing as major hurricane damage — small openings let water in fast. No job is too small if it's protecting your home.
