Why Storm Damage Response Is Different
Storm damage is not a normal repair call. Wind load tears hangers loose, debris bends and detaches sections, tree strikes flatten runs, and roof debris jams downspouts and underground extensions. Most of it is hidden until the next rain shows up at the foundation or in the soffit. After every major Northeast Florida storm we run an emergency rotation, prioritizing properties with active water intrusion and customers in our existing service map.
Florida storm specialists
Hurricane Irma, Matthew, Idalia, Helene, Milton. We have responded to every major Northeast Florida storm event. Our crews are experienced with post-storm assessment, debris hazards, and rapid restoration sequencing.
Insurance documentation
Detailed photo reports, damage descriptions matched to homeowner insurance policy categories, and scope-of-work estimates suitable for claim filing. Adjusters can call us directly with questions.
Drainage and gutter together
Storms damage both. We restore the gutter and downspout system and the underground drainage in one project. One scope, one warranty, NDS Certified.
Post-storm gutter damage in Jacksonville almost always extends to the drainage and downspout extension system. Most contractors only address what they can see. We assess the full water-management system from the roof edge to the property line, including any underground Schedule 40 PVC, French drains, and pop-up emitters.

Storm Prep and Recovery Resources
Before the next named storm, the cheapest defense is a properly secured system with cleared downspouts and Alu-Rex Double-Pro or traditional hidden hangers. Our hurricane season gutter prep guide walks through the pre-storm checklist, and the hurricane defense page covers the structural upgrades worth making before June.
How a Storm Damage Repair Runs
- Emergency phone or text intake. Severity, active water intrusion, property location, insurance status. Triaged within hours.
- On-site emergency assessment. Albert or a senior crew lead walks the property, identifies hazards, and documents every damage point with photos. Tarping and immediate-stabilization noted if needed.
- Insurance documentation packet. Photo report, damage descriptions matched to typical homeowner policy categories, and itemized scope-of-work estimate. Adjuster contact accepted.
- Written repair quote. Itemized gutter, drainage, soffit, and fascia scope. Materials, timeline, payment terms (insurance check or Wisetack financing).
- Scheduling. Existing customers and active intrusion properties run first. Major hurricane response can run 2 to 8 weeks deep depending on event severity.
- Restoration. Underground drainage repaired and pressure-tested. Hangers replaced to Alu-Rex Double-Pro or traditional. Damaged sections replaced or rerun seamless on site. Soffit and fascia rebuilt before reinstall.
- Final walkthrough with the homeowner. System function confirmed, photos delivered, lifetime workmanship warranty registered on any new work.
Storm Damage Gutter Repair FAQ
What should I do immediately after storm damage to my gutters?
Photograph everything you can safely see from the ground before debris is moved. Detached runs, fallen sections, downspout damage, water marks on soffit or fascia. Do not climb a wet roof or use a ladder in wet conditions. Call your insurance carrier to open a claim and call us at 904-304-3199 for an on-site assessment. We can coordinate documentation directly with your adjuster.
How fast can you respond after a hurricane?
Same-day or next-day for assessments on properties with active water intrusion. Full restoration scheduling depends on event severity. After major hurricanes the rotation can run two to eight weeks deep. Existing Gutter Pro customers and properties with active intrusion get prioritized.
Do you provide insurance documentation?
Yes. Every storm assessment includes a photo report and an itemized scope-of-work estimate suitable for claim filing. Damage descriptions are written to match typical Florida homeowner policy categories. Adjusters can call us directly for clarification or to schedule a joint walkthrough.
Can damaged gutter sections be repaired or do they need full replacement?
It depends on the damage. Wind-detached sections with the gutter material still intact can usually be re-secured with new Alu-Rex Double-Pro or traditional hangers. Tree-strike crushed sections, sections with multiple deformation points, or sections where the fascia behind has rotted typically need replacement. Seamless replacement is fabricated on site to match the existing profile and color.
How do I tell if my gutters are storm-damaged?
Visible signs include detached or sagging runs, downspouts pulled away from the wall or disconnected at the outlet, water marks on soffit or fascia, dents and deformation, and gutter debris in the yard. Hidden signs include underground Schedule 40 PVC washouts or root intrusion, which usually show up as water pooling at the downspout base. An on-site assessment catches both visible and hidden damage.
Will storm damage affect my drainage system?
Almost always, in Northeast Florida. Wind drives root systems against underground drainage. Heavy rain washes out improperly installed corrugated black pipe and overwhelms undersized French drains. Tree strikes and roof debris jam downspouts and back water into underground runs. We assess the full water-management system from roof edge to property line on every storm call.
How much does storm damage gutter repair cost in Jacksonville?
Spot repairs to a few sections run $500 to $1,500. Mid-scope repairs with hanger replacement, damaged section replacement, and downspout work run $1,500 to $5,000. Full system restoration including drainage repair and soffit and fascia work runs $5,000 to $15,000 or more on larger properties. Most of this is covered under homeowner insurance for wind and storm events.
Do you work with homeowner insurance adjusters?
Yes. We provide direct documentation, accept adjuster calls, and can coordinate joint property walkthroughs when requested. We do not, however, file claims on behalf of homeowners. That is the homeowner's responsibility with their carrier.
What hurricanes have you responded to in Jacksonville?
Hurricane Matthew (2016), Hurricane Irma (2017), Hurricane Dorian and Hurricane Nicole responses, Hurricane Idalia (2023), Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton (2024). Northeast Florida sits in a corridor that catches both Atlantic and Gulf systems. Storm response is a recurring part of what we do.
Should I file an insurance claim for gutter damage?
Generally yes if damage is clearly storm-related and the repair scope is meaningfully above your deductible. For minor cosmetic dents on an otherwise sound system, filing may not make sense. Our assessment includes scope-of-work numbers that help you make that decision before you call your carrier.
What if my gutters need full replacement?
Full replacement after storm damage is a chance to right-size the system. Most homes upgraded from builder-grade 5-inch to 6, 7, or 8-inch seamless aluminum, with Alu-Rex Double-Pro or traditional hangers and proper underground Schedule 40 PVC routing. Lifetime workmanship warranty applies to new installation. Insurance typically covers like-for-like replacement; upgrades above that line are quoted to the homeowner directly.
Do you handle commercial storm damage?
Yes. Commercial storm response runs the same playbook with more scale. COIs provided. Office plazas, churches, retail centers, schools, and HOA common-area buildings handled. Larger commercial scopes assessed by walk, not by phone.
How long does storm damage repair take?
Spot repairs run a single day. Mid-scope restoration runs one to three days. Full system restoration with drainage repair runs three to seven days. Insurance claim timelines often add weeks to start dates while approvals process. We schedule confirmed start dates only after claim status is settled and any required mortgage company endorsements are cleared.
Do you offer financing for major storm repair?
Yes. Wisetack 0 percent APR introductory financing is available for qualified buyers on storm restoration projects. Approval takes minutes and does not affect your credit score. Useful for covering deductibles, scope upgrades beyond insurance coverage, or bridging cash flow while a claim processes.
