FAQs
What are the most common types of roof damage caused by Tennessee’s severe storms in Soddy-Daisy?
High winds and straight-line gusts can lift or tear shingles, hail can bruise or puncture the shingle mat, and wind-driven rain can force moisture under flashings. In spring and late-summer storms, falling limbs from hardwoods common in Soddy-Daisy also crack decking and gutters. Our inspectors look for shingle loss, granule buildup in gutters, soft spots in the plywood, and bent or missing flashing around chimneys and valleys.
How soon after a storm should I schedule a roof inspection?
Call as soon as it’s safe—ideally within 24–48 hours—because fresh damage is easier to document for insurance and prevents small leaks from turning into interior ceiling stains or mold. We offer free, no-obligation inspections and can tarp exposed areas the same day to stop active leaks while your claim is processed.
Will my homeowners insurance cover storm-related roof repairs or replacement?
Most policies written in Hamilton County include wind and hail coverage under the dwelling portion. If our HAAG-certified inspector confirms storm damage, we’ll create a photo-documented report and meet your adjuster on-site to make sure all affected components—shingles, flashing, ventilation, and even gutters—are included. You’re typically responsible only for your deductible unless your policy has specific cosmetic or age clauses.
How long does the storm damage restoration process take from inspection to a finished roof?
Timelines vary with material availability and weather, but a typical sequence is: inspection and emergency tarping (day 1), insurance adjustment and approval (5–10 days), material ordering (2–3 days), and roof installation (1–2 days for an average 2,000-sq-ft home). From first call to final walkthrough, most Soddy-Daisy projects are completed within three weeks, barring rain delays.
Do you use special roofing materials to withstand future Tennessee storms?
Yes. We recommend Class 3 or Class 4 impact-rated architectural shingles from manufacturers like CertainTeed and Owens Corning, synthetic underlayment that resists wind uplift to 120 mph, and corrosion-resistant drip edge mandated by the 2021 International Residential Code. Upgrades such as ice-and-water shield in valleys and along eaves add secondary protection against wind-driven rain common on the west slope of Mowbray Mountain.
What emergency services can you provide immediately after a storm?
Our 24/7 response crew can install heavy-duty tarps, remove fallen tree limbs, and secure loose gutters or siding. We also set up interior containment if water has reached the attic insulation and provide moisture readings to document the damage for insurance. There is no up-front cost for emergency dry-in services when you authorize us to handle the permanent restoration.
