This directory holds two roofing listings for Franklinton, Louisiana. None of them has a Google rating matched to it yet, so what follows is contact detail rather than reputation data.
All of them are recorded in Washington Parish. Roofing permits and inspections are issued locally rather than by the state, so a re-roof in Franklinton goes through Washington Parish or the municipality's own building department, whichever holds jurisdiction at the property.
Hiring a roofer in Franklinton: what this page knows
Louisiana requires a state contractor license once a project reaches $7,500; below that a Franklinton job needs no state license but still needs a local permit. The Louisiana roofing license rules explain the threshold and where it stops applying.
Louisiana's peak severe-weather season: June–November (Atlantic hurricane season), plus a spring severe season. The Louisiana storm center lists any National Weather Service alert active right now. NOAA's Storm Events Database holds 44 severe-weather events for Washington Parish between 2016 and 2026 — the county the listings on this page put Franklinton in. The most recent event meeting the dataset's severity definition was a hail report measuring 1.00 in (Quarter - Half Dollar) on April 1, 2026.

Roofers within 20 miles of Franklinton
Franklinton has 2 roofing listings of its own, shown above. 2 more listings are based in other towns within 20 miles. Below are the top 2, one card per company, ranked the same way as the list above: verified listings first, then by Google reviews, rating and name.
Each card names the town the business is based in and its straight-line distance from Franklinton. Being based nearby is not the same as working in Franklinton — ask whether they cover your address.
Licensing for roofers working in Franklinton
Louisiana does not license roofers as a trade at every job size. A state contractor credential becomes necessary once a project reaches $7,500, and it is issued by the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors.
Below that figure a Franklinton roofer needs no state license — but the threshold is about state licensure only. It never exempts the work from a permit and an inspection through Washington Parish or the city.

* 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
- Feb 15, 2026 -- Thunderstorm Wind (52 kt gust) -- $35K property damage reported
- Jul 19, 2021 -- Thunderstorm Wind (50 kt gust) -- $35K property damage reported
- Nov 1, 2018 -- Tornado (EF2)
- Jan 2, 2017 -- Thunderstorm Wind (60 kt gust)
- Jan 21, 2016 -- 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
One preliminary storm report has been filed for Washington Parish since June 1, 2026: 1 thunderstorm wind event.
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.
The damage figure. $190,750 is the sum of NOAA’s recorded property-damage estimates across every event in Washington Parish over the period — a county total, not a figure for any one property, any one building or any one claim. NOAA records these figures as estimates made at the time of reporting. They are not adjusted for inflation, and they are frequently absent or zero — a zero means nothing was recorded, not that nothing was damaged.
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.
