FAQs
How do I know if my metal panel roof in Bristol has sustained storm damage?
Look for dents from hail, lifted or missing fasteners, bent seams, scratches that expose bare metal, and new leaks or water stains inside the loft. After high winds or heavy rain, it’s wise to book a professional inspection; we use drones and moisture-scanning tools to detect hidden damage that can’t be seen from the ground.
What does your storm-damage restoration service for metal roofs involve?
Our team begins with a free on-site assessment and photo documentation of all impact zones. We then secure the roof to prevent further water ingress, remove and recycle damaged panels, repair or replace underlayment and insulation, install new colour-matched panels, and finish with a full sealant and fastener check. A final quality inspection and clean-up are included.
Can you work with my insurance company on the claim for storm damage?
Yes. We provide a detailed inspection report, itemised estimate, and photographic evidence that meet insurer requirements. With your permission, we speak directly with the loss adjuster, negotiate current market rates for materials and labour, and keep you informed so you receive the maximum payout you’re entitled to under your policy.
How long does it typically take to repair or replace storm-damaged metal panels?
Minor panel repairs can be completed in one day. Partial panel replacement on an average semi-detached house usually takes 2–3 days, while a full roof replacement may require 5–7 working days, weather permitting. We schedule work promptly after materials arrive and aim to minimise disruption to your daily routine.
Will the replacement panels match the colour and profile of my existing metal roof?
Absolutely. We source panels from the same manufacturer wherever possible or use third-party suppliers who can replicate the exact gauge, rib profile, and paint system. If the original colour has faded, we use custom-mixed coatings to blend old and new sections seamlessly, ensuring the finished roof looks uniform from the street.
Why choose metal panels for reroofing after a storm in Bristol?
Metal panels offer a wind uplift rating of up to 150 mph, Class 4 hail impact resistance, and a typical service life of 40–60 years. They shed rain quickly—important in Bristol’s wet climate—are fire-resistant, recyclable, and can reduce cooling costs by reflecting solar heat. Opting for metal now means fewer repairs after future storms and a higher property resale value.
