FAQs
What are the most common signs of storm-related damage to my roof?
Common indicators include missing or cracked shingles, dented metal components, loose or damaged flashing, and visible leaks in your attic or ceiling. You might also notice granule loss, dark patches, or water stains on your interior walls or ceilings. If you spot any of these signs, scheduling a professional inspection is a good idea.
How soon should I schedule a roof inspection after a storm?
It’s best to inspect your roof as soon as conditions are safe. Even if you don’t see obvious damage, high winds, hail, or heavy rain can cause issues that aren’t immediately noticeable. Early detection can prevent small problems from turning into major leaks and costly repairs.
What does a storm damage roof inspection involve?
A thorough inspection checks for loose or missing shingles, cracked or damaged flashing, hail impact marks, and any structural weaknesses. Our experts also assess gutters, soffits, and fascia for hidden damage. Identifying these problems early helps safeguard your home and extend the roof’s lifespan.
Will my homeowners insurance cover storm damage repair in Dayton?
Most standard homeowners insurance policies include coverage for storm-related damage. However, coverage terms and claim processes can vary. It’s important to check your policy and understand your deductibles. We can assist by documenting the storm damage with photos and detailed reports to support your claim.
Is it necessary to get an inspection if I don’t see any visible damage?
Yes. Sometimes, storm damage is not immediately apparent from the ground. Subtle issues like minor leaks, loosened shingles, or hidden cracks can worsen over time. A professional inspection can catch these issues early and save you money on more extensive repairs later.
How long does a roof inspection take, and will it disrupt my routine?
A typical roof inspection in Dayton can last anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple of hours, depending on the roof’s size and complexity. There’s minimal disruption for homeowners—it’s a quick process, and you’ll receive a detailed report on any findings right after the inspection.
