FAQs
How can I tell if my Pelham roof has storm damage?
Look for missing or lifted shingles, dented metal flashing, granules collecting in gutters, water stains on interior ceilings, or daylight showing in the attic. After severe thunderstorms or hail, it is best to schedule a professional inspection—some damage is hard to spot from the ground and can worsen if left untreated.
What should I do immediately after a storm damages my roof?
First, ensure everyone’s safety and avoid climbing onto the roof. Photograph visible damage from the ground, cover interior leaks with buckets or tarps, and call our Pelham storm-damage hotline. We offer free post-storm inspections and can deploy emergency tarping crews the same day to prevent further water intrusion.
Does homeowners insurance cover storm-related roof repairs in Pelham?
Most policies in Alabama cover wind, hail, and fallen-tree damage, minus your deductible. Coverage varies by insurer and roof age, so review your policy or ask your agent. Our inspectors document damage with photos and written reports that meet insurance company standards, improving your chances of a fair settlement.
How quickly can your team respond to emergency roof repairs in Pelham?
Because we keep on-call crews in Shelby County, we typically arrive within 2–4 hours of your call, 24/7. During widespread events we prioritize homes with active leaks or compromised structures, but every customer receives a scheduled inspection within 48 hours.
Can you help with the insurance claims process for storm damage?
Yes. We meet adjusters on-site, provide a detailed scope of work using Xactimate pricing, and communicate directly with your insurer to clarify code requirements and local permitting. Our goal is to minimize paperwork for you while ensuring the claim covers all necessary repairs, not just cosmetic fixes.
Will you match my existing roofing materials and ensure code compliance during repairs?
Absolutely. We stock asphalt shingles, metal panels, and specialty materials commonly used in Pelham subdivisions, and we can special-order discontinued colors when available. All repairs follow the 2021 International Residential Code as adopted by Pelham’s Building Department, including proper underlayment, flashing, and wind-resistance standards.
