FAQs
What are the most common signs of wind or storm damage to my roof in Etowah?
After one of our fierce Appalachian wind events, look for missing or creased shingles, lifted flashing, bent ridge vents, granule build-up in gutters, water stains on interior ceilings, and debris piles on the roof. Even if everything looks intact from the ground, small punctures or loosened fasteners can lead to leaks—an expert inspection is the safest way to know for sure.
How soon should I schedule an inspection after a storm?
Immediately. High winds and driving rain can create openings that allow water to seep in with the very next shower. Our crews are on 24/7 storm-response standby in Etowah and can usually be on-site the same day you call. A prompt inspection limits further damage, preserves evidence for an insurance claim, and speeds up repairs.
Does homeowners insurance cover storm damage, and can Fierce Appalachian Winds Roofing help with the claim?
Most policies written in Tennessee treat wind, hail, and fallen-tree impacts as ‘covered perils.’ We provide full documentation—photos, written assessments, and a detailed repair estimate—to streamline your claim. If your carrier requests it, we’ll meet the adjuster on-site to point out damage that might otherwise be overlooked, helping you secure the fairest settlement possible.
What restoration services do you offer beyond shingle replacement?
Our storm recovery package is turnkey. We replace damaged shingles, metal panels, or tiles; re-flash chimneys and wall intersections; reseal vents and pipe boots; repair or replace gutters and downspouts; install new decking where wood has rotted; and address attic insulation or drywall that got wet. We also offer temporary tarping to protect your home until permanent repairs are completed.
How long does a typical storm-damage roof restoration take in Etowah?
Minor repairs (under 10 shingles or a small flashing section) can often be finished the same day. A full tear-off and reroof for an average 2,000-sq-ft home usually takes one to two days once materials arrive and the claim is approved. Severe structural repairs—such as replacing decking or trusses—may extend the timeline to three to five days. We give you a written schedule up front and keep you updated if weather causes delays.
