FAQs
What should I do immediately after I discover roof damage during a storm?
First, make sure everyone in the home stays clear of any areas where water is entering or ceilings are sagging. If it is safe, shut off electricity to affected rooms to prevent electrical hazards. Then call our 24/7 emergency line at (XXX) XXX-XXXX. Avoid climbing onto the roof yourself—wet shingles and wind gusts make conditions dangerous. While you wait for us, take photos or video of the damage from ground level for insurance documentation and place buckets or tarps indoors to catch leaks.
How quickly can your emergency response team reach my property in Seymour?
Because our trucks are stationed inside Jackson County, our average arrival time within Seymour city limits is 30–60 minutes from your call. During widespread weather events we triage calls based on severity, but we always dispatch a technician as soon as one is free. You will receive a text message with the technician’s name, ETA, and a GPS tracking link once the crew is en route.
Are temporary repairs enough, or will you provide permanent solutions?
Our first priority is to stop water intrusion and stabilize the structure, which may include tarping, shrink-wrapping, or installing emergency boards. These temporary measures are designed to protect your home for several days to a few weeks. After the weather clears, we perform a full inspection, provide a written report with photos, and present options for permanent repair or full replacement. If you approve the proposal, we schedule the permanent work—often within 3–5 business days, faster if critical structural elements are compromised.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover emergency roof repairs?
Most standard homeowner policies cover sudden and accidental roof damage caused by wind, hail, falling trees, or fire. We work directly with all major insurers and can meet the adjuster on-site, supply the damage report, and help you file paperwork. You generally pay only your deductible up front; the insurer issues the remaining payment once the claim is approved. Damage caused by wear and tear or lack of maintenance is usually excluded, so we document the incident thoroughly to demonstrate that the loss was storm-related.
What types of roofing systems can your emergency team handle?
We are certified to service asphalt shingles, metal panels, standing seam, EPDM rubber, TPO, PVC, modified bitumen, wood shakes, and slate. Our trucks carry a wide variety of compatible fasteners, sealants, and tarp sizes so we can stabilize nearly any residential or light-commercial roof in a single visit. For specialty materials such as slate or tile, we install protective coverings immediately and return with matching replacement pieces sourced from our regional suppliers.
How much will emergency roofing service cost, and do you offer financing?
Basic emergency tarping for a typical single-family roof starts at $350, which includes up to 100 sq ft of coverage and a return visit to remove the tarp. Complex scenarios—multiple penetrations, steep pitches, or structural repairs—are priced after an on-site assessment. We provide a written estimate before any work begins. For larger repairs or replacements, we partner with two local banks to offer 0% interest plans for 12 months and low-interest options up to 60 months. If insurance is involved, financing can cover your deductible so you pay nothing out of pocket today.
