FAQs
What should I do immediately after my Alcoa home suffers storm-related roof damage?
First, ensure everyone’s safety by staying clear of downed power lines or unstable structures. Then, document the damage with photos or video and call our 24/7 emergency line. We can dispatch a crew to perform temporary tarping or board-up services to prevent further water intrusion until a full inspection and repair plan are in place.
How quickly can you inspect and tarp my roof in Alcoa after a severe storm?
Because East Tennessee storms can cause widespread damage, we prioritize emergency calls within Alcoa city limits and surrounding Blount County. In most cases we can have a certified technician on-site within 2–4 hours of your call, even during peak events. Temporary tarping is completed the same visit so rain and wind can’t worsen the situation.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover storm-damage roof repairs?
Most standard homeowner policies in Tennessee cover sudden and accidental damage from wind, hail, or falling debris. We provide a free, itemized inspection report and photographic evidence you can submit to your carrier. If desired, our in-house claims specialists will meet with the adjuster, explain the scope of work, and help you navigate paperwork so you receive the benefits you’re entitled to.
How long does a full storm-damage roof restoration usually take?
Timeline depends on material availability and weather, but a typical asphalt-shingle replacement on an average Alcoa home takes 1–2 days once permits and materials are ready. Metal or specialty roofs may take 3–5 days. We schedule work as soon as your claim is approved and materials arrive, and we keep you updated with text or email milestones.
Do you use specialized materials or techniques for roofs in Alcoa’s climate?
Yes. We install shingles and underlayments rated for the high winds and occasional hail common to the foothills of the Smokies. Ice-and-water shield is applied in vulnerable valleys and eaves, and we recommend Class 3 or 4 impact-resistant shingles to help lower future storm damage and may even qualify you for insurance premium discounts.
Are you licensed, insured, and locally experienced?
Absolutely. We hold a Tennessee contractor’s license (# displayed on request), carry $2 million in general liability and full workers’ compensation coverage, and are certified by GAF and CertainTeed. Our team has restored more than 1,200 storm-damaged roofs in the Alcoa–Maryville area since 2010, so we understand local codes, HOA guidelines, and permit requirements.
