FAQs
How quickly should I schedule an inspection after a storm in Sweetwater?
We recommend booking a professional roof inspection within 24–48 hours of any major wind, hail, or heavy-rain event. Sweetwater’s hot, humid climate can accelerate the deterioration caused by fresh storm damage, allowing small punctures to turn into serious leaks in just a few days. Prompt inspections help document the damage for insurance purposes and let us install temporary protections—such as emergency tarps—before the next rain showers arrive.
What signs of storm damage should I look for on my roof?
From ground level, watch for lifted or missing shingles, dented metal flashing, granule buildup in downspouts, and debris piles on the roof. Indoors, water stains on ceilings, peeling paint, or a musty odor in the attic often indicate hidden leaks. Sweetwater frequently experiences wind gusts over 60 mph, which can also bend gutters or displace ridge vents. If you notice any of these issues—or simply hear unusual dripping in the walls—call us for a no-obligation assessment.
How does your restoration plan process work from inspection to completion?
1) Free Damage Assessment—Our HAAG-certified inspector documents all storm impacts with photos, moisture-meter readings, and a written scope of loss. 2) Insurance Liaison—We meet with your adjuster to ensure nothing is overlooked and provide a detailed Xactimate estimate. 3) Temporary Mitigation—If needed, we install tarps, shrink-wraps, or board-ups to stop active leaks. 4) Restoration Plan—You receive a step-by-step schedule covering material selection, permitting with Sweetwater building officials, and projected start/finish dates. 5) Roof Replacement/Repairs—Our crews remove damaged materials, repair decking, install new underlayment, and apply your chosen shingles, metal panels, or tiles. 6) Final Walk-Through & Warranty—We complete a quality-control checklist, clean the property, and hand you manufacturer and workmanship warranties.
Will my homeowners insurance cover storm-damaged roof restoration?
Most Sweetwater policies list wind, hail, and lightning as covered perils. As long as the damage was sudden and not due to long-term neglect, your carrier should pay for like-kind replacement minus your deductible. We provide comprehensive documentation—photos, core samples, and code-upgrade requirements—to strengthen your claim. If you receive a partial denial, we can supply supplemental reports or meet with the adjuster for a re-inspection at no extra charge.
Can you work with different roofing materials common in Sweetwater?
Yes. Our technicians are factory-trained to restore and replace asphalt shingles, standing-seam and exposed-fastener metal, clay or concrete tile, and flat roofing systems such as TPO and modified bitumen. We also offer Class 4 impact-rated shingle upgrades that can earn premium discounts from several Texas insurers. During your free consultation, we’ll recommend the best material for Sweetwater’s high UV index, seasonal hail risks, and your budget.
How long does storm damage restoration usually take, and will I need to leave my home?
For typical asphalt shingle roofs up to 3,000 sq ft, full replacement takes one to two days once materials are on-site. Metal or tile projects may require three to five days, mainly for specialized flashing work. You can stay in your home throughout the process; however, expect loud hammering and vibrations between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. We safeguard landscaping, A/C units, and pets with tarps and magnetic nail sweeps, and we leave the property cleaner than we found it.
