FAQs
How do I know if my roof has sustained storm damage?
After a storm, check for missing or curled shingles, water stains on ceilings or walls, and visible leaks in the attic. You might also notice dented gutters or downspouts. While a quick visual inspection can indicate obvious damage, scheduling a professional evaluation ensures any hidden issues are identified early.
What should I do immediately after a severe storm in Newport?
First, ensure your family’s safety and address any urgent issues such as broken windows or water leaks. Take photos of the visible storm damage for insurance documentation. Then, contact a reputable roofing contractor to schedule a professional assessment, which can help you navigate repairs and potential insurance claims.
Will my homeowners insurance cover storm-related roofing repairs?
Most standard homeowners insurance policies cover damage caused by sudden storms, including hail and high winds. Coverage depends on factors like your policy’s terms and deductibles. It’s helpful to work with a contractor experienced in storm damage restoration who can guide you through the claims process and provide the necessary documentation.
Can I delay making repairs if the damage seems minor?
Delaying repairs is risky. Even what appears to be minor damage can worsen over time, leading to leaks, water damage, and mold growth. Repairing the damage promptly helps maintain the integrity of your roof and prevents more costly problems in the future. It also keeps your insurance claim valid by showing that you acted in a timely manner.
How long does it typically take to restore a storm-damaged roof?
The timeline can vary depending on the extent of the damage, weather conditions, and availability of materials. Minor repairs may be completed within a few days, while a full roof replacement could take anywhere from one to two weeks. Your roofing contractor can provide a more accurate estimate after they assess your roof.
Why should I choose a local Newport roofing contractor for storm restoration?
Local contractors are familiar with Newport’s weather patterns and building codes, ensuring compliant and durable repairs. They are more easily reachable for follow-up support, warranty issues, or yearly inspections. Plus, working with a trusted local company helps you receive personalized attention and reliable, community-focused service.
