Roofing in Beaufort County, NC
Beaufort County is centered on Washington and sits in the sounds of North Carolina. Carolina Trophy Roofs works throughout the county, from Washington and Belhaven out to the smaller communities that most contractors will not drive to.
Sound-side and estuarine roofs sit in persistently high humidity, with long-duration wind events and storm surge flooding that arrives from the water side rather than the ocean.
Sustained humidity drives algae streaking and accelerates decking moisture problems. Long-duration wind loosens fasteners progressively rather than failing all at once, so damage is often missed until a leak appears.
If you need a roof inspected, repaired or replaced in Beaufort County — or you have storm damage and need it tarped today — Carolina Trophy Roofs responds across the county with free estimates and manufacturer-backed workmanship.

* The most recent data year is partial. NOAA publishes storm reports on a rolling basis and the final months are still being processed, so a low count in the last year is not evidence of a quiet year. The curated archive behind these counts runs through May 31, 2026; anything later sits in the preliminary block below.
Notable events in the archive
- Jun 3, 2022 -- Thunderstorm Wind (61 kt gust)
- Aug 3, 2020 -- Tornado (EF1)
- May 13, 2019 -- Hail (Golf Ball hail, 1.75 in)
Selected by the dataset’s own rule rather than by editorial choice: the largest hail, the peak wind gust, the strongest tornado and the two costliest events by recorded property damage, deduplicated and newest first. Any dollar figure above is NOAA’s recorded estimate for that one event.
Preliminary — not yet in the permanent archive
17 preliminary storm reports have been filed for Beaufort County since June 1, 2026: 17 thunderstorm wind events.
Preliminary reports covering 2026-05-31 onward come from National Weather Service storm reports filed as events occur. They have not yet been through the quality-control review that produces the permanent archive, and individual reports may later be revised, combined or withdrawn. NOAA Storm Prediction Center storm reports.
What these counts cover. County figures count events NOAA recorded against a county (hail, thunderstorm wind and tornadoes). High wind, winter storms, ice storms, blizzards, heavy snow, hurricanes and tropical storms are recorded against National Weather Service forecast zones rather than counties, so they are reported at state level instead. Counts reflect events that were observed and reported.
“Significant” on this page means an event meeting any one of three tests: hail 1.00 in across or larger, a wind gust of 58 kt or more (the National Weather Service severe thunderstorm criterion), or any tornado. It is a severity definition used by this dataset and is not an official NOAA classification.
Source. Archived figures come from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information Storm Events Database, covering 2016 through May 31, 2026. Anything after that date comes from NOAA Storm Prediction Center preliminary storm reports and is labelled preliminary wherever it appears. Both are US Government works in the public domain.
