FAQs

How can I tell if my roof has a hidden leak after a storm?

Hidden leaks rarely drip in obvious places. Instead, look for new water stains on ceilings or walls, peeling paint, musty odors in the attic, or damp insulation. After wind-driven rain or hail, inspect the roof from the ground with binoculars for lifted shingles, displaced flashing, or granule loss. Because many leaks develop weeks after the initial damage, we recommend scheduling a professional moisture-scan within 48 hours of any severe storm in Luttrell.

What should I do immediately if I suspect storm damage to my roof in Luttrell?

1) Stay safe—avoid climbing onto a slick or unstable roof. 2) Photograph visible damage from the ground; these pictures help with insurance claims. 3) Call our 24/7 emergency line. We can usually arrive anywhere in the Luttrell area within 90 minutes to tarp exposed sections and stop further water intrusion. 4) Notify your insurance carrier and open a claim; we can meet the adjuster on-site to document all storm-related issues, including hidden leaks that may not be obvious to the untrained eye.

How quickly can your team respond to emergency tarp or repair calls in the Luttrell area?

Because we keep rotating crews on standby during storm season, our average on-site arrival time in Luttrell is 60–90 minutes. For widespread events, we prioritize homes with active leaks and vulnerable interiors first, but every caller receives same-day temporary protection. Full diagnostic leak testing and permanent repairs are usually scheduled within 24–72 hours, weather permitting.

Will my homeowner’s insurance cover the cost of storm damage restoration?

Most standard policies in Tennessee cover sudden and accidental damage caused by wind, hail, or falling debris. Coverage typically includes emergency tarping, moisture mitigation, and full roof replacement if repairs won’t restore the roof to pre-loss condition. You’ll still be responsible for your deductible and any pre-existing wear. We provide a detailed photo report, Xactimate-formatted estimate, and direct communication with your adjuster to maximize approved funds and minimize out-of-pocket expenses.

What does your hidden leak detection process involve?

Our technicians begin with a visual inspection of shingles, flashing, vents, and gutters. We then use infrared thermography to map temperature differences that reveal trapped moisture behind roofing materials. Next, we run electronic moisture meters along decking and attic rafters to confirm any anomalies. If necessary, a controlled water test pinpoints the exact entry point. All findings are documented in a digital report with marked photos, so you can see precisely where repairs are needed.

How long does a typical storm damage roof restoration take?

Time frames vary with material availability and weather, but most single-family roofs in Luttrell are fully restored within 1–3 days once work begins. The sequence is: Day 1—remove damaged materials and replace decking if required; Day 2—install new underlayment, flashing, and shingles; Day 3—final quality inspection and site cleanup. Hidden leak repairs inside the attic or drywall may add another day. We keep you updated every step so there are no surprises.
