FAQs
How quickly can you respond to an emergency roof leak in Gatlinburg?
Our dedicated leak-response team is on call 24/7 and can usually be on-site within 2–4 hours of your call, even during peak tourist season. Because we’re based in Sevier County, we know the local roads and weather patterns and keep stocked repair trucks ready for rapid deployment.
What are the most common signs that I have a roof leak?
Inside your home you may notice water stains on ceilings or walls, bubbling paint, damp insulation in the attic, or a musty odor. Outside, look for missing or broken shingles, lifted flashing, clogged valleys, exposed nail heads, or damaged sealant around vents and chimneys. If you see any of these issues—or hear dripping during a rainstorm—call us before the leak causes structural damage or mold growth.
Is a quick leak repair a permanent fix or will I eventually need a full roof replacement?
A properly executed leak repair can last the remaining life of a relatively young roof. Our technicians identify not only the leak point but also underlying causes such as improper flashing or ventilation. If your roof is in generally good shape (under 15–20 years old for asphalt shingles, under 40 years for metal), a targeted repair is often sufficient. For older or severely storm-damaged roofs we’ll document findings and give you an honest assessment of whether a full replacement will save money long-term.
Can you match the repair materials to my existing roof style and color?
Yes. We maintain an inventory of the most common Gatlinburg shingle profiles and metal panel colors, and we work closely with regional suppliers for specialty materials. Before we begin the repair, we photograph your roof, verify manufacturer specs, and hand-select the best color blend so the patched area blends seamlessly with the rest of your roof.
How much does a typical leak repair cost in Gatlinburg?
Costs vary based on roof type, access, and the extent of damage, but most small asphalt-shingle leak repairs fall between $250 and $650. Complex repairs involving multiple penetration points, steep slopes, or metal roofing can range from $600 to $1,400. After a free on-site inspection we provide a written, no-obligation quote so you know exactly what to expect—no hidden fees.
Do you help with insurance claims for storm-related roof leaks?
Absolutely. We document all damage with photos, detailed measurements, and a repair estimate compliant with Xactimate® insurance software. We can meet your adjuster on-site, explain our findings, and submit any supplemental paperwork required by your carrier. While the claim decision is ultimately up to the insurer, our thorough documentation often speeds approval and maximizes your coverage.
