FAQs
What signs of storm damage should I look for on my roof?
Some common indicators include missing or curled shingles, impact marks or dents from hail, damaged flashing, debris on the roof, and excessive granule loss. If you notice any of these signs, it’s a good idea to schedule a professional inspection to assess the full extent of the damage.
How soon after a storm should I schedule a professional roof inspection?
It’s recommended to schedule an inspection as soon as possible after the storm has passed. Prompt assessment helps you quickly identify damage that may lead to leaks or structural issues, allowing you to file any necessary insurance claims in a timely manner.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover repairs or replacement for storm damage?
In most cases, homeowner’s insurance policies do cover storm damage, but the exact coverage varies depending on your policy. We suggest reviewing your policy details and contacting your insurance provider to confirm what is covered in the event of storm-related damage.
How long does a typical roof inspection take?
A standard roof inspection usually takes between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size and complexity of your roof. However, if extensive damage is found, additional time may be needed to perform a full assessment and estimate repair costs.
What if damage isn't visible from the ground?
Even if you don't see obvious signs of damage, hidden issues like small punctures, dents, or lifted shingles can lead to leaks over time. That’s why hiring a professional roofer to perform a thorough inspection is essential – they have the training and proper equipment to detect subtle problems before they get worse.
When should I replace my storm-damaged roof instead of repairing it?
If the damage is widespread, the roof is approaching the end of its lifespan, or the cost of repairs is close to that of a replacement, it’s typically more cost-effective to replace the roof. A professional roofer will perform a detailed inspection and recommend the best course of action based on your roof's condition.
