A big city next door

Greensboro is the county seat of Guilford County and the largest city in the Piedmont Triad (Wikipedia: Greensboro, North Carolina). Its housing ranges from early-1900s homes in historic districts near downtown to postwar neighborhoods and newer subdivisions spreading toward Jamestown, Colfax and the airport.

Where Greensboro meets High Point

The south and southwest sides of Greensboro run right up to High Point and Jamestown. Homes there share the same storms, the same tree cover and many of the same builders as north High Point. Requests from that part of the city are a natural fit.

Storm patterns

Greensboro and High Point share a forecast office: National Weather Service Raleigh issues the warnings (National Weather Service Raleigh (forecast office for the Triad)), and NOAA's Storm Prediction Center outlooks flag the severe days (NOAA Storm Prediction Center). Wind damage is the most common roof problem across the city, followed by limb strikes in wooded neighborhoods.

Common requests

  • Shingle replacement on 1990s and 2000s subdivisions reaching the end of a first roof.
  • Flashing and chimney repairs on older brick homes.
  • Porch and addition roofs with low slope.
  • Storm checks after summer wind events.

Permits

Greensboro has its own permitting and inspections office for addresses inside the city. Unincorporated Guilford County addresses go through the county. Ask that the estimate say which applies.

Next door: High Point, Colfax and Kernersville.
