The 4 Storm Guard locations we track in New Orleans, Austin, Chicago and Houston have 522 Google reviews between them, with ratings from 4.6 to 5 stars depending on the location (as of October 2026).

Is Storm Guard a franchise?

Yes. Storm Guard sells franchises, and its locations are independently owned and operated (source: company website). The local owner's business holds the license, signs your contract and runs the crews, so experiences can differ a lot from one location to the next.

How do I check my local Storm Guard location?

Start with the location's page on this list: it shows the license we matched, permits in city records where available, and its Google review history. Then confirm the legal business name on your contract, and look that name up yourself: Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors lookup (lslbc.louisiana.gov); Texas doesn't issue a state roofing license, so ask for proof of insurance and the permit number; Illinois IDFPR license lookup (and the City of Chicago's contractor license search). Ask who pulls the permit and get the permit number. For a franchise, ask who owns the location and who backs the warranty.
