FAQs
How can I tell if my Lynchburg home has a roof leak?
Common warning signs include water stains on ceilings or walls, peeling interior paint, moldy odors in the attic, damp insulation, and shingles that are curled, cracked, or missing. You might also notice granules collecting in gutters after a storm. If you see daylight shining through attic boards or hear dripping during rain, call us immediately—delaying repair can allow moisture to damage rafters, drywall, and electrical systems.
How fast can your crew arrive to fix a roof leak in Lynchburg?
We maintain a 24/7 emergency phone line staffed by local dispatchers. Most calls within the city limits receive a technician on-site in 60–90 minutes, and customers in Bedford, Forest, and Madison Heights are typically reached within two hours, weather and traffic permitting. Our trucks are stocked with tarps, plywood, sealants, and replacement shingles so we can stabilize the leak on the first visit.
What immediate steps do you take to stop water intrusion before a full repair?
During the emergency service call, our crew first identifies the leak source from both the roof surface and attic. We remove debris, apply high-grade polyurethane sealant, install an ice- and-water shield patch, and cover the area with a heavy-duty, UV-resistant tarp secured with furring strips. If structural decking is compromised, we board it temporarily until a permanent decking and shingle replacement can be scheduled, usually within 48 hours once materials are matched.
Will the repaired area match my existing roof, and is there a warranty?
Yes. After the temporary fix, we locate the closest color and profile match from the same manufacturer or an equivalent line to blend with your existing shingles, metal panels, or membrane. All workmanship on permanent leak repairs carries our 1-year labor warranty, and any new shingles or flashing we install are backed by their manufacturer’s material warranties—often 20-30 years for asphalt products.
How much does an emergency roof-leak repair usually cost in the Lynchburg area?
Pricing depends on the leak’s size, roof pitch, material, and accessibility. Minor shingle puncture repairs that require a tarp and sealant typically run $250–$400. Flashing and decking replacements range from $400–$750. Extensive storm damage needing structural repairs is quoted after inspection. We provide a clear written estimate before work begins and waive the service-call fee if you proceed with the repair.
Can you help me file an insurance claim for storm-related roof leaks?
Absolutely. We document damage with date-stamped photos, moisture readings, and a detailed inspection report. Our staff can guide you through your policy’s leak coverage section, assist with claim forms, and meet your adjuster on-site to explain the scope of work. Once the claim is approved, we bill your insurer directly for covered repairs—leaving you responsible only for your deductible.
