FAQs
How can I tell if my roof needs replacement after severe weather?
Signs of serious damage include missing shingles, cracked or curling shingles, leaks, and noticeable sagging. In Rutledge, hail and high winds can also leave dents or rip off shingle granules. If you see any of these indications, call a professional roofer for an inspection right away.
How long does a roof replacement typically take in Rutledge?
For an average-sized home, the replacement usually takes between one and three days. However, this timeframe can vary based on factors like local weather conditions, the roof’s size and pitch, and the chosen roofing materials.
What roofing materials are best for severe weather resilience?
Impact-resistant asphalt shingles, metal roofing, and certain synthetic options can offer superior storm resistance. Each has unique benefits. Metal roofs, for example, are extremely durable against high winds, while impact-resistant shingles are designed to withstand hail impact.
Will my insurance cover storm damage to my roof?
In many cases, homeowner’s insurance policies cover storm-related roof damage. Coverage typically depends on your policy terms and whether your roof has been maintained. It’s best to review your policy and work with a qualified roofing contractor to document the damage for a claim.
How should I prepare my home before the replacement begins?
Clear your driveway and yard to allow your roofing crew to move freely and set up equipment. Remove or cover items stored in the attic that might be affected by dust or debris. Preparing in this way helps ensure a smoother, safer work process.
Can you handle emergency repairs if a roof replacement can’t be done immediately?
Yes. If weather or scheduling issues delay a full replacement, we often provide emergency services—such as tarping or quick repairs—to prevent further damage until a complete replacement can be scheduled. This approach helps to protect your property in the interim.
