FAQs
How do I know if my asphalt shingle roof has been damaged by a storm in Bristol?
Common signs include missing, curled, or cracked shingles, dark spots where granules have been knocked off, dented metal flashings, and water stains on interior ceilings or walls. After high winds or hail, it is best to schedule a professional inspection because some damage, such as loosened fasteners or lifted shingle edges, can be difficult to spot from the ground but still allow water intrusion.
What should I do immediately after I notice storm damage to my roof?
First, stay safe—avoid climbing onto the roof yourself. Document visible damage with photos from the ground and from inside the attic if water is leaking. Call a reputable local roofer for a temporary tarp or emergency patch to prevent further water entry. Then notify your insurance company, providing the photos and the contractor’s preliminary assessment.
Can I file an insurance claim for storm damage to my asphalt shingle roof, and how can you help?
Most homeowners policies cover sudden storm-related damage. Once you file the claim, an adjuster will inspect the roof. We can meet the adjuster on-site, point out damage that may be missed, and provide a detailed, itemized estimate written to insurance guidelines. Our documentation often speeds approval and ensures you receive fair coverage for full restoration, not just spot repairs.
How quickly can you respond to emergency roof repairs in the Bristol area?
We maintain a 24⁄7 storm-response team and can usually arrive anywhere in the Bristol region within 2–4 hours of your call. Our first priority is to secure the structure with tarps, temporary sheathing, or sealant. Once the immediate threat is controlled, we schedule a full repair or replacement based on material availability and your insurance timeline.
Will you match my existing shingles during restoration, and what if the color is discontinued?
We stock a wide range of architectural and three-tab asphalt shingles commonly used in Bristol and can usually find an exact or near-exact color match. If the original line has been discontinued, we work with the manufacturer to locate leftover inventory or propose a section-by-section replacement so the roof retains a uniform appearance. Insurance policies often cover a full slope or entire roof replacement when matching is impossible, and we will advocate on your behalf.
How long does a typical asphalt shingle storm damage restoration take and what does it involve?
Small repairs—replacing a handful of missing shingles or fixing minor flashing issues—can be completed in one day. A full roof replacement on an average 2,000-square-foot home usually takes 1–2 days once materials are on-site. The process includes removing damaged shingles, inspecting and repairing the decking, installing new underlayment and flashing, laying new shingles with proper nailing patterns, and cleaning up all debris and stray nails with magnetic sweepers.
