FAQs
What are the most common signs of storm damage to asphalt shingles in the Rockford area?
Look for missing or curled shingles, dark spots where granules have washed away, lifted shingle edges, cracked or split tabs, and dents or pockmarks caused by hail. Inside the home, inspect ceilings and attic spaces for water stains or damp insulation, which can indicate roof leaks created by wind-driven rain.
How soon after a storm should I schedule a professional inspection?
Call as soon as it’s safe and practical—ideally within 24-48 hours. Quick inspections help document damage for insurance, prevent minor issues from becoming leaks, and shorten wait times during peak storm season when qualified roofers in Rockford book up fast.
Will my homeowners insurance cover storm-damaged shingles, and how do you assist with the claim?
Most policies cover wind, hail, and other storm damage under the dwelling coverage portion. We provide a free detailed inspection report, photo documentation, and a written estimate formatted for insurance adjusters. Our team can meet onsite with your adjuster to make sure all damage is noted and you receive a fair settlement.
Can you match my existing shingles, or will the whole roof need replacement?
If damage is localized and your current shingles are still manufactured, we can often perform a seamless repair. However, if the shingle model is discontinued, the granule color has noticeably faded, or more than 25-30 % of the roof is compromised, full replacement is usually recommended to maintain appearance, warranty coverage, and long-term weather protection.
What makes Roofing Done Right’s storm-damage service different from other Rockford contractors?
We are local, fully licensed, and carry both liability and workers’ comp insurance. Our crews are trained in manufacturer-approved installation methods, so your new shingles qualify for full material warranties. We use high-quality synthetic underlayment, six-nail installation, and upgraded ridge ventilation at no extra cost, ensuring better wind resistance and energy efficiency.
How long does a storm-damage roof repair or replacement take, and what warranties do you provide?
Minor shingle repairs are completed in a single day. A full roof replacement on an average 2,000 sq ft home typically takes 1–2 days, weather permitting. You receive a 10-year workmanship warranty from Roofing Done Right plus the manufacturer’s limited lifetime material warranty, giving you peace of mind against future leaks or defect-related issues.
