FAQs
How do I know if my Collegedale home needs a full roof replacement after a storm rather than just repairs?
Common indicators include widespread shingle loss, visible decking or underlayment, multiple roof leaks in different rooms, and large areas of bruised or cracked shingles from hail. In Collegedale, high winds can also lift entire roof sections, breaking the sealant strips. Our inspectors perform a free, photo-documented assessment to determine whether spot repairs are feasible or if a full replacement is the safest and most cost-effective option.
Will my homeowners insurance cover the cost of a storm-related roof replacement?
Most policies in Tennessee do cover sudden and accidental storm damage, including hail, wind, and fallen debris. Coverage hinges on two things: (1) the type of policy you have—Actual Cash Value (ACV) vs. Replacement Cost Value (RCV)—and (2) proof that the damage came from a recent storm. We assist you by providing detailed inspection reports, weather data, and on-site presence during the adjuster’s visit to maximize the chances of full approval. You will still be responsible for your deductible and any policy exclusions.
How long does the entire roof replacement process take in Collegedale?
The typical timeline is 1–2 days for most asphalt shingle roofs, with an additional day if decking repairs are needed. Metal or specialty roofs may require 3–4 days. Factors such as material availability, permit approval from Collegedale’s Building & Codes Department, and weather windows can extend the schedule, but we’ll give you a firm start and completion date before signing the contract.
What roofing materials do you recommend for storm resilience in the Collegedale area?
Architectural asphalt shingles rated for 130-mph wind uplift and Class 3 or 4 impact resistance are a cost-effective choice. Metal roofing (standing seam or metal shingles) offers superior wind and hail performance and can last 40–60 years. We also install synthetic underlayments and ice-and-water shield in valleys and around penetrations to prevent wind-driven rain from infiltrating.
Do I need a building permit for a roof replacement in Collegedale, and who handles it?
Yes. The City of Collegedale requires a roofing permit for full replacements to ensure the work meets International Residential Code (IRC) and local wind zone standards. Our company pulls the permit, schedules any required inspections, and includes the permit fee in your proposal so you have no paperwork hassles.
What warranties do you provide on storm-damage roof replacements?
You receive (1) the manufacturer’s limited lifetime shingle warranty—often 30–50 years pro-rated—and (2) our 10-year workmanship warranty covering installation defects such as leaks, flashing issues, or nail pops. If you choose an upgraded manufacturer-certified system, you can add enhanced coverage that makes the manufacturer responsible for labor and disposal costs as well, giving you long-term peace of mind.
