FAQs
What kinds of roof damage do storms typically cause in Beersheba Springs?
Because our area sits on the Cumberland Plateau and often sees high-wind thunderstorms, straight-line winds, hail, and heavy downpours, the most common damage we find includes lifted or missing shingles, bruised or punctured asphalt from hail, bent or detached metal panels, damaged flashing around chimneys and vents, and leaks that show up as water stains in the attic or ceilings. Ice storms are rarer but can also loosen shingles and clog gutters, leading to ice dams.
How soon after a storm should I have my roof inspected?
Schedule an inspection as quickly as it’s safe—ideally within 24-48 hours. Early inspection stops minor issues from turning into structural rot or interior water damage. Our crew offers free, no-obligation post-storm assessments and can provide emergency tarping the same day if your roof is actively leaking.
Will my homeowners insurance cover storm-related roof repairs, and can you help with the claim?
Most policies written in Grundy County cover wind and hail events as “named perils.” As long as normal wear and tear isn’t the primary cause, your carrier should pay for repair or full replacement, minus your deductible. We document damage with photos, meet with the adjuster on-site, and supply a detailed Xactimate estimate that matches insurer formatting, improving your chances of full approval.
What does your storm damage restoration process look like from start to finish?
1) Free inspection and photo documentation. 2) Emergency services (tarping, board-up) if needed. 3) Detailed scope of work and insurance assistance. 4) Material selection to match HOA or historical guidelines if applicable. 5) Permit acquisition from Grundy County Building & Codes. 6) Tear-off and replacement or targeted repair, using manufacturer-approved installation methods. 7) Thorough cleanup with magnetic nail sweep. 8) Final walkthrough and submission of warranty and insurance completion paperwork.
How long will a storm damage roof repair or replacement take?
Minor shingle or flashing repairs can be completed the same day we arrive. A full asphalt-shingle tear-off and replacement on an average 2,000 sq ft home usually takes 1-2 working days, weather permitting. Complex roofs, specialty materials (metal, cedar), or supply-chain delays may add a day or two. We always provide a precise timeline before work begins and stay in constant communication if weather pushes us back.
Can I do anything to lessen the chances of future storm damage?
Yes. (1) Schedule an annual roof and gutter maintenance check so weak spots are corrected before storm season. (2) Trim overhanging limbs to reduce impact damage. (3) Upgrade to Class 4 impact-rated shingles or standing-seam metal, which can withstand hail and 130 mph winds. (4) Ensure attic ventilation is balanced—proper airflow prevents shingle uplift. (5) Install ice-and-water shield along eaves and valleys to combat wind-driven rain. Our team can price these upgrades during your restoration project so you only pay the difference over the insurance settlement.
