FAQs
How quickly can your Elora roofing crews respond after a storm?
We operate a 24/7 emergency line for Elora and the surrounding Wellington County area. In most cases, one of our certified roof inspectors can be onsite within 2–4 hours of your call to perform a safety assessment, photograph the damage for insurance purposes, and provide temporary protection such as tarping. Full repair work is usually scheduled within 24–72 hours, depending on material availability and weather conditions.
What are the most common signs of storm damage I should look for on my roof?
After a wind, hail, or heavy-rain event, look for missing or lifted shingles, shingles with broken tabs or exposed nail heads, dents in metal flashings or vents, excessive granule loss in gutters, water stains on interior ceilings, and debris such as branches embedded in the roof surface. From the ground you may also notice uneven roof lines or sagging areas. If you see any of these issues, call us for a free inspection—climbing on a potentially damaged roof can be dangerous.
Do you work directly with insurance companies on storm damage claims?
Yes. We regularly coordinate with all major insurers that operate in Ontario. Our team documents damage through photos, drone imagery, and written reports, then submits those files along with an itemized estimate to your adjuster. We can meet the adjuster on site, explain the scope of work, and negotiate fair market pricing so that you receive the coverage you’re entitled to. Most homeowners only pay their deductible once the claim is approved.
Will you provide a temporary fix before the full repair or replacement is scheduled?
Absolutely. Protecting your home from further water intrusion is our first priority. Our crews carry heavy-duty tarps, plywood sheathing, and emergency dry-in materials on every truck. Once we complete the inspection we can install temporary coverings over exposed decking, seal damaged flashings, and remove dangerous debris. These stop-gap measures are included in the initial service and are often reimbursable by insurance.
Are your technicians licensed and familiar with local building codes in Elora?
All field staff are certified roofers who have completed Working at Heights training, WHMIS, and manufacturer-specific installation programs. The company holds a valid Ontario business licence and carries $5 million in liability insurance along with WSIB coverage for every employee. Because we are based in Centre Wellington, we stay current with local bylaws, snow-load requirements, and permit procedures enforced by the Township’s building department.
How much will storm damage restoration cost and do you provide free estimates?
Every storm loss is unique, so costs can range from a few hundred dollars for shingle replacement to several thousand for structural repairs. Factors include roof size, pitch, material type, accessibility, and the extent of decking or insulation damage. We offer no-obligation inspections and written estimates at no charge. For non-insured work, we provide transparent fixed pricing and can arrange financing plans up to 120 months with zero-penalty early payoff.
