The Problem We Solve

Most Homeowners
Don't Know
Where To Start.

You probably got our name from someone you trust. And you're probably staring at a roof, a quote, or an insurance claim wondering what any of it actually means. That's normal. You're not behind — you just haven't had someone explain it yet.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Does my roof have hail damage if I can't see it from the ground?
Often, yes. Hail damage is frequently invisible from the ground — especially on asphalt shingles. A close inspection will reveal bruised granules, dented metal flashing, and soft spots.
02
How long do I have to file an insurance claim after storm damage?
Most policies allow one year from the date of the storm. Don't wait — delays can give insurers reason to deny the claim.
03
Will my insurance rates go up if I file a storm claim?
In Nebraska, storm damage is considered an "Act of God" — most insurers cannot raise your rates for a single weather-related claim.
Why Us

Why True
Construction

Omaha homeowners deserve a contractor who educates, not just one who estimates.

01

Locally Rooted

We're an Omaha company. We know Nebraska weather, local codes, and the insurance landscape better than any out-of-state storm chaser.

02

The Compass Promise

We believe an informed homeowner is our best customer. That's why we built a free educational tool — so you know exactly what you're getting before you sign anything.

03

No High-Pressure Sales

Free estimates, honest assessments. If your roof doesn't need replacing, we'll tell you that too. Our business is built on referrals, not one-time transactions.

What Omaha homeowners are saying
★★★★★

"Mark, Carter and Liam were wonderful to work with! Professional, efficient, polite and thorough. Mark even made several more trips up to my roof to check and re-check everything. I would give 10 stars if I could."

Michelle Tallant · Local Guide
★★★★★

"When other companies could not get my roof covered by insurance, they went the extra mile to call out my insurance company's adjuster to walk the roof with them. That proved to be the difference."

Mark Bartolomei · Omaha, NE
★★★★★

"He is a guy with integrity who really cares about the work he does. Got back to us immediately, was on a ladder within the hour, and fixed it free of charge the next morning. If you're looking for an ethical, hardworking guy — Mark is the one."

Heather Bey · Omaha, NE
★★★★★

"A+++ for responsiveness, follow-through, and honesty. Mark provided a thorough roof inspection after a big storm and gave us peace of mind. True Construction will absolutely be our first call when we need work done."

Rachel Grace · Local Guide
★★★★★

"New roof, all new siding, gutters and downspouts — Mark repeatedly went the extra mile to make sure the smallest details were addressed. I have an older home in Aksarben and my house looks BEAUTIFUL."

Stephen S · Aksarben, Omaha
★★★★★

"Had a minor issue recently that I was completely prepared to pay for myself — they did the touch up for free, during a very busy time for trades. Really appreciate the service, Mark thanks!"
