FAQs
What should I do immediately after a thunderstorm damages my roof in Bluff City?
First, ensure everyone’s safety and avoid going onto the roof yourself. Take clear photos or videos of visible damage from the ground, then cover interior leaks with buckets or tarps to protect belongings. Call Tennessee Thunderstorm Roofing as soon as possible—our emergency team is on-call 24/7 for Bluff City residents, and we can usually arrive within a few hours to install temporary tarping that prevents further water intrusion until a full inspection and repair plan are completed.
How can I tell if my roof has hidden storm damage that I can’t see from the ground?
Signs of concealed damage include water stains on ceilings or walls, musty odors in the attic, missing granules in downspouts, or pieces of shingles scattered in the yard. Our trained inspectors use drones, moisture meters, and infrared imaging to locate bruised shingles, lifted flashing, and saturated decking that are invisible to the untrained eye. Scheduling a complimentary post-storm inspection within 24–72 hours gives you the best chance of documenting issues before they worsen or the insurance company’s filing deadline passes.
Does homeowners insurance in Tennessee cover thunderstorm-related roof damage, and can you help with the claim?
Most standard homeowners policies in Tennessee do cover wind, hail, and falling-debris damage caused by a thunderstorm, minus your deductible. Because every carrier has its own requirements, our restoration specialists document all damage, provide a detailed estimate using Xactimate software, and meet the adjuster on-site to advocate for full, code-compliant repairs. This claim assistance is complimentary for Bluff City clients and often accelerates approval while reducing out-of-pocket costs.
How fast can you start repairs, and what is the typical timeline for a full storm damage roof restoration?
Emergency tarping is installed the same day we inspect. Once your insurance carrier issues approval, material ordering generally takes 2–4 days, and most asphalt shingle roof replacements in Bluff City are finished in 1–2 working days. More complex projects involving decking replacement, metal roofing, or gutter and siding repairs may extend the timeline to 5–7 days. We provide a written schedule up front and keep you updated at every step.
What roofing materials do you recommend to better withstand future Tennessee thunderstorms?
For asphalt roofs, we suggest Class 4 impact-rated architectural shingles that resist hail and 130-mph wind uplift, paired with synthetic underlayment and ice-&-water barriers in valleys. Standing-seam metal roofing is another excellent option, offering 50-year longevity and superior wind resistance. We also upgrade attic ventilation and install high-profile ridge caps to reduce shingle blow-off. During your consultation, we’ll explain cost, performance, and aesthetic differences so you can choose the best solution for your home and budget.
Are you licensed and certified to perform storm damage restoration in Bluff City, and do you offer warranties?
Yes. Tennessee Thunderstorm Roofing holds a Tennessee General Contractor’s license (Residential & Commercial), carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and is an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor as well as a CertainTeed ShingleMaster. All roof replacements include a 5-year workmanship warranty from us plus the manufacturer’s 30- to 50-year material warranty. Because we follow the International Residential Code and use manufacturer-approved installation methods, these warranties remain in force even if you sell your home.
