Nationwide Adjusted the Claims and Paid the Checks, Then Said It Never Insured the Homeowners On October 20, 2026, the Nebraska Court of Appeals decided a case that every Omaha-area homeowner with a storm claim should know about. In Millard Gutter Co. v. Nationwide Insurance, No. A-25-559, an Omaha roofing contractor sued Nationwide over storm repairs on 11 homes. Nationwide's defense was that it had never issued a homeowner's policy to any of those 11 homeowners....

Cedar Shake Valley Repairs: Why the “Wedge” Method Is Required, and Why the 2-Foot Strip Falls Short

Valleys do the hardest work on any roof. They collect water from two slopes at once and carry it to the gutters, so when a cedar shake or shingle valley is damaged by hail, wind, or age, the repair has to be done right. On cedar valley repairs, though, what the industry standard requires and what insurance companies are willing to pay for are often far apart....

Wolf v. Shelter: When Your Policy Says “No Match” and Nebraska Law Says Otherwise

In January 2025 we published Policy Language vs. Laws and Regulations: What Wins?, which made a simple argument: when an insurance policy says one thing and Nebraska law says another, the law wins. Insurers do not always see it that way. Many policies now include language specifically designed to avoid paying for matching, and adjusters routinely point to that language to deny the replacement of undamaged siding or roofing that will no longer match the repair....

Johnson Restoration installed a new roof for us last year and they were incredible. We had 6 different companies come out and give quotes and plans. Johnson was by far the most thorough, detailed, customer oriented. The price was great and work was excellent. Their team came out before during and after the work to check in and review the work.Paul was our rep and we highly recommend him and his team.

2025 Year-In-Review

Thank You for an Amazing Year! Take a look through these photos and see just how far we’ve come!

From humble beginnings doing small residential roof repairs to massive multi-unit commercial storm restorations, our crews have been all over the Omaha metro and surrounding communities – fixing hail-damaged apartments, replacing wind-torn siding, installing new gutters, windows, and everything in between.

Whether it was emergency storm response or everyday “retail” projects, we’ve been proud to help homeowners and businesses get their properties back to beautiful (and protected) again.

As we close out another busy year of roofing, siding, gutters, and windows, we want to say a huge THANK YOU to every customer who trusted us with their home or building. Your support puts food on the tables and pays the mortgages for the hardworking men and women on our crews and in our office – and we never take that for granted.

2026 is going to be even better – we have some exciting new initiatives coming, and we’ll be sharing details soon via email and good old-fashioned mail. In the meantime, if you’re ready for a free inspection or want to get on the books early for spring projects, schedule online anytime at:

From all of us at Johnson Restoration – Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and see you in the New Year!
