FAQs
How soon can you inspect my roof in Athens after a storm?
We offer 24/7 storm-response services and can usually perform a free on-site inspection within 24 hours of your call. Our Athens-based crews are on standby during severe-weather periods so we can assess damage, photograph problem areas for your records, and recommend temporary protections immediately.
What kinds of storm damage do you handle?
Our technicians are trained to repair wind, hail, and heavy-rain damage, including missing or lifted shingles, cracked tiles, dented metal panels, damaged flashing, punctures from fallen branches, and water intrusion into attics or ceilings. We also provide emergency tarping and temporary waterproofing to prevent further damage until permanent repairs are completed.
Will you help with my homeowner’s insurance claim?
Yes. We document all damage with detailed photos, written assessments, and itemized repair estimates that meet insurance requirements. Upon request, we can meet your adjuster on site to make sure nothing is overlooked, and we bill most major carriers directly so you only pay your deductible once the claim is approved.
How long do storm-related roof repairs usually take?
Emergency measures such as tarping or board-ups are completed the same day. Permanent repairs—like shingle replacement, flashing repair, or partial reroofing—typically take one to three days, depending on roof size and material availability. If structural decking or trusses are damaged, allow an additional two to five days for carpentry and inspections.
Can you match my existing shingles or tiles?
In most cases, yes. We stock common asphalt shingle colors used in the Athens area and have relationships with regional suppliers for specialty tiles, metal panels, and synthetic materials. If an exact match has been discontinued, we’ll present the closest available option and explain how to blend it for a uniform appearance.
Do storm-response repairs come with a warranty?
All permanent repairs carry a 2-year workmanship warranty, and materials are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty (often 20–30 years for shingles and 40–50 years for metal). Emergency tarping is intended as a temporary measure and is warrantied for 30 days or until permanent work is completed.
