FAQs
How quickly can you respond after a storm hits Cleveland?
Our rapid-response crews are on call 24/7 and can usually be on-site anywhere in the Greater Cleveland area within 2–4 hours of your call—often sooner if road conditions allow. We prioritize safety first, then secure your property to prevent further damage before beginning a full assessment.
What should I do immediately after noticing storm damage to my roof?
Stay safe by avoiding ladders or standing water near downed power lines. Take clear photos of visible damage from the ground, cover valuables inside with plastic sheeting if leaks are present, and call our emergency line. We’ll walk you through next steps and dispatch a technician to perform temporary protection such as tarping or board-ups.
Do you work with insurance companies on storm-damage claims?
Yes. We provide detailed inspection reports, photo documentation, and itemized estimates that meet insurance carrier guidelines. With your authorization, we can communicate directly with your adjuster, help file paperwork, and advocate for full coverage of all storm-related repairs or replacements.
What types of storm damage can you repair?
We handle wind-torn shingles, hail impact bruising, punctures from falling branches, ridge-vent failures, flashing blow-offs, gutter and downspout damage, saturated insulation, and structural decking issues. If the storm compromised other exterior elements—siding, skylights, chimneys—we coordinate those repairs as well for a seamless restoration.
Is emergency tarping or temporary protection included in your service?
Absolutely. Our first goal is to stop active leaks and prevent further interior damage. Emergency tarping, shrink-wrapping, or board-up services are performed during the initial visit and are typically covered by insurance under “mitigation.” We keep these materials in our trucks so no time is lost gathering supplies.
Are your inspections free and what does the process involve?
Yes, storm-damage inspections are 100 % free. A certified roofing specialist will climb the roof, photograph all affected areas, check attic spaces for hidden moisture, and assess gutters, flashing, and ventilation. You’ll receive a written report with findings, recommendations, and an honest assessment of whether you need repair, full replacement, or simply monitoring.
