20 roofing listings are recorded at Matthews, North Carolina addresses. Four of them carry a Google rating taken from the business's own profile, from 4.8 to 5.0, covering 594 reviews in total. The other 16 are address and phone records with no rating attached.

Licensing for roofers working in Matthews
North Carolina does not licence roofers as a trade at every job size. A state contractor credential becomes necessary once a project reaches $40,000, and it is issued by the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors.
Below that figure a Matthews roofer needs no state licence — but the threshold is about state licensure only. It never exempts the work from a permit and an inspection through Mecklenburg County or the city.

Storm history in Mecklenburg County
Matthews has no weather record of its own — NOAA records severe weather against counties, and the listings on this page put Matthews in Mecklenburg County, with some of them in Union County.

* 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
- May 22, 2020 -- Thunderstorm Wind (55 kt gust) -- $500K property damage reported
- Feb 6, 2020 -- Tornado (EF1) -- $500K property damage reported
- Apr 15, 2018 -- Thunderstorm Wind (60 kt gust) -- $5K property damage reported
- Mar 21, 2017 -- 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
20 preliminary storm reports have been filed for Mecklenburg County since June 1, 2026: 20 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quality-control review that produces the permanent archive, and individual reports may later be revised, combined or withdrawn.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.
The damage figure. $2,445,000 is the sum of NOAA’s recorded property-damage estimates across every event in Mecklenburg County 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.
