FAQs
What situations require an emergency roof patch in Tullahoma?
Any sudden damage that compromises the watertight seal of your roof is considered an emergency—this includes storm-blown shingles, fallen tree limbs, punctures from hail, or leaks that appear after heavy rain. If water is entering the attic or living spaces, mold growth and structural rot can begin quickly, so call us right away.
How fast can Roofing Done Right arrive at my property?
Because we’re locally based in Tullahoma, our crews are on-call 24/7. In most cases we can be on site within 1–2 hours inside the city limits and within 3 hours for surrounding Coffee, Franklin, and Moore counties. Severe weather or road closures may add slight delays, but we always provide real-time ETA updates.
What materials and techniques are used for an emergency patch?
We stock reinforced synthetic underlayment, self-adhering modified bitumen, heavy-duty tarps, and ice-and-water shield membranes on every service truck. Once the damaged area is cleaned and dried, we install a watertight temporary membrane secured with cap nails and seal all edges with high-grade roof cement. For shingle roofs, we often weave replacement shingles into the patch area; for metal or flat roofs, we employ compatible sealants and screws to prevent galvanic corrosion.
How much does an emergency patch typically cost?
Pricing depends on roof height, pitch, and size of the damaged area, but most emergency patches in Tullahoma fall between $275 and $650. This covers labor, materials, and a full on-roof inspection. We provide an upfront written quote before work starts, and there are no after-hour surcharges for true emergencies.
Will the patch affect my insurance claim?
No. Insurance carriers expect homeowners to take reasonable steps to mitigate additional damage. An emergency patch is classified as a “temporary repair” and is usually reimbursed under the dwelling coverage portion of your policy. We document the damage with photographs, supply a detailed invoice, and can meet your adjuster on site to explain the temporary measures we took.
How long will the patch last, and when should I schedule permanent repairs?
A professionally installed emergency patch is designed to protect your home for 30–90 days, giving you time to arrange a permanent repair or full roof replacement. We recommend scheduling the follow-up work within two weeks so materials can be ordered and a crew reserved. During that period, we offer no-charge check-ups if additional storms roll through Tullahoma.
