FAQs
How can I tell if my Crab Orchard roof has storm damage?
Common indicators include missing or curled shingles, dark spots where granules have washed away, dents in metal flashing, water stains on ceilings or attic rafters, and debris piles in gutters. High winds and hail may also loosen flashing or lift the shingle edges, making the roof vulnerable to leaks. If you notice any of these signs—or if your neighborhood experienced hail larger than 1” in diameter—schedule a professional inspection right away.
Why should I schedule a professional inspection instead of checking the roof myself?
Storm-damaged roofs often have subtle problems such as hairline shingle fractures, hidden punctures, and compromised underlayment that are easy to miss from the ground. Our certified Crab Orchard technicians use safety gear, moisture-reading tools, and drones to assess every layer without causing further harm. A thorough, documented inspection is also essential for insurance claims and manufacturer warranties.
How does the roof-repair insurance claim process work in Crab Orchard?
1) Call your insurer to open a claim and receive a claim number. 2) We meet your adjuster on-site, provide photos, and explain code requirements unique to Crab Orchard. 3) After approval, you receive a detailed scope of work and estimated payout minus your deductible. 4) We perform repairs or full replacement to code, then submit completion photos and invoices for final disbursement. Our team guides you at every step so you never have to negotiate alone.
How quickly can Roofing Done Right respond after a storm, and what emergency services do you provide?
Our crews live and work in the Crab Orchard area, allowing us to arrive within 24 hours—or sooner for critical leaks. We install emergency tarps, seal punctures, and remove hazardous debris to stop active water intrusion. Permanent repairs or full replacement are scheduled as soon as materials arrive and weather allows, usually within one to two weeks.
Can you match my existing shingles and guarantee workmanship?
Yes. We stock a wide selection of asphalt, metal, and composite shingles commonly used across Cumberland and Rockwood. If your exact color is discontinued, we provide samples of the closest matches for HOA or personal approval. All labor is backed by our 10-year workmanship warranty, and most manufacturers provide 30- to 50-year material warranties when installed by our certified team.
What can I do to minimize future storm damage to my roof?
Choose impact-rated shingles (Class 3 or 4), upgrade underlayment to synthetic or peel-and-stick ice shield along eaves and valleys, and ensure proper attic ventilation to reduce uplift pressure. Schedule an annual maintenance inspection to catch loose flashing or nail pops before severe weather hits. Finally, keep nearby trees trimmed to prevent branches from scraping or puncturing the roof during high winds.
