Vermont storm declarations and hail
Storm damage in Vermont shows up more in federal declarations than in hail counts. FEMA's Disaster Declarations Summaries list eight Vermont major disasters for severe storms declared from January 1, 2023 through October 7, 2026, most of them with flooding:
- 2023: DR-4695 (March 20), DR-4720 (July 14), DR-4744 (October 6)
- 2024: DR-4762 (March 2), DR-4770 (April 19), DR-4810 (August 20), DR-4816 (September 11), DR-4826 (September 26)
Hail was less frequent: the Storm Events Database 2025 file from NOAA has 12 Vermont records with the event type Hail.
Counting method: the hail number is Vermont Storm Events records of type Hail with a 2025 begin date, one per county or forecast zone per event. The FEMA number is distinct state DR declarations whose incident type is severe storm, tornado or hurricane, or whose title names one of those; a title that names only a severe winter storm does not qualify on its own.
Where roofing fits in Vermont contractor law
This section is general information, not legal advice. It summarizes official sources as of October 7, 2026; check the current text of each rule before relying on it.
Vermont's residential contractor chapter names roofing directly. In 26 V.S.A. 5501 (Vermont Statutes Online, 2026), "residential construction" includes interior and exterior construction, renovation and repair, and lists roofing alongside painting, paving and weatherization, for dwellings of four or fewer units. Registration with the Office of Professional Regulation is required before contracting with a homeowner for more than $10,000, labor and materials included.
Storm response has its own exemption. 26 V.S.A. 5502(6) (2026) says the chapter does not apply to work that would otherwise need registration when it is done in response to an emergency, provided the person applies for registration within a reasonable time after the work.
The Office of Professional Regulation's Residential Contractor FAQs (checked October 2026) state that registrants carry liability insurance of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate.

Vermont's older housing and its owners
Older homes make up most of Vermont's housing. In the ACS 5-year estimates for 2020-2024, 56.0% of units were built before 1980 (table B25034), and the median year built is 1976 (table B25035). The same B25034 table counts 82,559 units built in 1939 or earlier.
Table B25003 shows 200,079 owner-occupied units out of 273,416 occupied units in Vermont (ACS 5-year 2020-2024). Those owners are the people who can sign a roof contract.
What Vermont roofing buyers filter on
- Project type: repair after a storm, full replacement of an older roof, or a specific material such as metal or slate.
- ZIP code: buyers follow the counties named in recent declarations and the towns their crews already work.
- Insurance claim status: whether the homeowner has a claim open after a storm or is paying directly.
- Homeowner status: only an owner contracts for the job, and registration rules apply to contracts with homeowners.
Where buyers filter in Vermont
Most of Vermont is rural, and buyers often skip area names and list ZIP codes. For reference, the three largest Census areas touching Vermont on July 1, 2025 were these, one of them shared with New Hampshire:
- Burlington-South Burlington: 227,803 (July 1, 2025 estimate)
- Lebanon-Claremont, NH-VT (micropolitan): 224,500 (July 1, 2025 estimate, whole metro area)
