FAQs
What does it mean to be a Haag-certified roofing inspector, and why is that important for my Lookout Mountain home?
Haag Certification is an industry-recognized program that trains inspectors to identify storm, hail, wind, and installation-related damage with scientific precision. A Haag-certified inspector has passed rigorous coursework, field practicums, and exams, so you benefit from objective documentation that insurance adjusters trust. In a weather-prone area like Lookout Mountain, this expertise reduces the chance of overlooked problems and speeds up claim approval.
What signs of roof or siding damage should I watch for after storms in Lookout Mountain?
After severe weather, look for missing or lifted shingles, dented metal flashing, granule loss collecting in gutters, cracked siding panels, bubbling paint, water stains on ceilings, and higher utility bills. Even if everything looks fine from the ground, hail bruises and wind-driven stress fractures can be invisible without a trained eye—another reason to schedule a professional inspection.
What can I expect during a Haag-certified roof and siding inspection?
Our inspector will photograph and measure every roof facet, examine shingle substrates for bruising, probe flashing and fasteners, and review attic ventilation and moisture readings. On siding, we check for impact fractures, loosened boards, and moisture intrusion behind panels. You receive a detailed digital report with annotated photos, repair recommendations, and an estimate—usually within 24 hours of the site visit.
Can you help with insurance claims for hail or wind damage in Lookout Mountain?
Yes. Because Haag methodology aligns with insurer guidelines, our reports streamline claim reviews. We meet adjusters onsite, provide comparative cost data, and speak their technical language to minimize disputes. Most clients see faster approvals and fuller coverage when we handle the documentation and follow-up calls.
How long will it take to repair or replace my roof or siding once damage is confirmed?
Timelines vary with material availability and weather, but most moderate roof repairs take 1–2 days, full replacements 2–4 days, and siding projects 3–5 days. We schedule work around Lookout Mountain’s micro-climate to avoid afternoon downpours and update you daily on progress. Emergency temporary repairs can be completed the same day of inspection if needed.
What warranties or guarantees do you offer on your roofing and siding work?
You receive a dual warranty: a manufacturer’s material warranty—up to 30 years on shingles and lifetime on select siding panels—and our 10-year workmanship guarantee covering installation errors and leak-related labor. Because we are Haag-certified, many material suppliers extend their higher-tier warranties when we install the system, giving you added peace of mind.
