FAQs
How soon after a storm should I have my roof inspected in Belvidere?
We recommend scheduling a professional inspection within 24–48 hours after any severe wind, hail, or heavy-rain event. Quick assessments help document damage for insurance, prevent minor issues from turning into leaks, and ensure you qualify for manufacturer and workmanship warranties that often require prompt reporting.
What kinds of storm damage do your certified crews typically find on Belvidere roofs?
Our Haag-certified inspectors most often uncover hail bruising that weakens shingle mats, wind-lifted or missing shingles, punctures from fallen limbs, and clogged or bent gutters that cause water backup. Because Belvidere sits in a hail-prone corridor, granule loss and hidden substrate fractures are also common and can reduce your roof’s life expectancy if not addressed quickly.
Are your crews licensed, insured, and certified to handle storm damage restoration?
Yes. Every crew member carries OSHA safety training, and our company maintains Illinois roofing license #104.xxx and $2 million in general liability coverage. Technicians hold certifications from GAF, CertainTeed, and the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning & Restoration Certification (IICRC), ensuring all repairs meet manufacturer specs and local Boone County building codes.
Can you help me file and negotiate my insurance claim?
Absolutely. We provide a complete claim-assistance package: (1) a photo-documented inspection report; (2) Xactimate-formatted estimates accepted by most carriers; (3) direct communication with your adjuster to justify scope of work; and (4) final invoicing that matches insurer line items. Homeowners retain control of the claim, but our guidance streamlines the process and maximizes coverage.
How long does the storm damage restoration process take and will I need to leave my home?
Emergency tarping is completed the same day you call. Once the claim is approved, typical shingle roof replacement in Belvidere takes 1–2 days, while minor repairs can be done in a few hours. You may hear noise and feel vibrations, but you can stay in your home throughout the project. We perform a magnetic nail sweep and final inspection before sign-off to ensure safety.
What roofing materials and warranties do you offer for storm restoration projects?
We install impact-rated architectural shingles, Class 4 SBS-modified shingles, standing-seam metal, and synthetic underlayments designed for Midwest freeze-thaw cycles. Manufacturer warranties range from 30-year limited to lifetime non-prorated coverage, and we back every restoration with our own 10-year workmanship warranty transferable to the next homeowner—adding resale value and peace of mind.
