FAQs
How can I tell if my Oakdale home has hidden roof leaks after a storm?
Common warning signs include unexplained water stains on ceilings or walls, a musty odor in the attic, peeling paint, bubbling drywall, or warped flooring. After a major storm, you may also notice loose shingles, lifted flashing, or clogged gutters that allow water to seep under the roofing system. Because leaks often remain concealed until substantial damage has occurred, scheduling a professional inspection is the most reliable way to confirm whether hidden leaks are present.
What should I do immediately if I suspect storm damage to my roof?
First, ensure everyone’s safety and avoid climbing onto the roof yourself. Next, take photos or video of any visible exterior or interior damage for insurance documentation. Then call a licensed roofing and storm-damage specialist—such as our Oakdale team—to perform a thorough inspection, provide emergency tarping if necessary, and prepare a repair estimate. Contact your insurance company promptly to start the claims process and share the contractor’s findings.
How fast can you respond to emergency roof leaks in Oakdale?
Our storm-response crews are on call 24/7 and can typically arrive anywhere in Oakdale within 1–2 hours of your call. We prioritize emergencies that involve active interior water intrusion, offering temporary tarping or board-up services to stop further damage until permanent repairs can be completed.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover hidden leak and storm-damage repairs?
Most homeowner policies in Minnesota cover sudden and accidental storm damage, including wind, hail, or falling debris that causes leaks. However, coverage can be denied if the insurer believes the damage resulted from lack of maintenance or pre-existing issues. We work directly with insurance adjusters, supplying photographic evidence, moisture-meter readings, and detailed repair estimates to help maximize your eligible reimbursement.
How long does storm-damage roof restoration usually take?
Timeline depends on damage severity, material availability, and weather. Minor shingle repairs can be completed in a single day once approved. Full roof replacements due to widespread hail or wind damage generally take 1–3 days of on-site work after permits and materials arrive. If structural decking or interior drywall needs replacement, allow an additional few days. We provide a precise schedule up front and keep you updated at every stage.
