FAQs
What should I do immediately after a storm damages my roof in Whitwell?
First, make sure everyone in the home is safe and stay clear of any downed power lines or loose debris. Next, take photos or short videos of the visible damage from the ground—these will be helpful for your insurance claim. Call a local, licensed roofing contractor that specializes in storm damage restoration; in Whitwell, we have an emergency line available 24/7. Until professionals arrive, avoid climbing onto the roof yourself, as hidden structural damage could make it unsafe.
How quickly can you inspect and tarp my roof after storm damage?
Because storms can create openings that allow water intrusion, we treat Whitwell storm calls with the highest priority. In most cases we can have a certified technician on-site within 2–4 hours of your call, even during evenings or weekends. We begin with a safety inspection, document the damage for your insurer, and then install heavy-duty tarps or shrink-wrap to prevent further water entry until permanent repairs or replacement can be completed.
What premium roofing materials do you recommend for storm resistance in Whitwell’s climate?
Whitwell experiences high winds, heavy rain, and the occasional hail event, so we recommend class-4 impact-rated shingles or metal roofing systems. Our best-selling premium options include: • Architectural asphalt shingles with SBS rubberized asphalt for superior flexibility and hail resistance. • Standing-seam steel or aluminum panels with concealed fasteners, rated to withstand winds up to 140 mph. • Synthetic slate or shake made from engineered polymer that carries a Class A fire rating and Class 4 impact rating. All materials we install meet or exceed the latest International Residential Code (IRC) and come with manufacturer warranties of 30–50 years.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover the cost of storm damage restoration?
Coverage depends on your individual policy, but most standard homeowner plans in Tennessee include wind and hail protection under the dwelling portion. After our inspection we provide a detailed damage report that you can submit to your insurer. We also offer on-site adjuster assistance to help make sure all legitimate storm-related damages—shingles, decking, flashing, gutters, even interior water stains—are documented. You are still responsible for your deductible, and any upgrades not covered by the policy (e.g., choosing metal instead of asphalt) would be an additional out-of-pocket expense.
How long does a typical storm damage roof replacement or repair take?
Small repairs such as replacing a few damaged shingles or sections of flashing can often be completed in one day. A full roof replacement on an average 2,000–3,000 sq ft Whitwell home usually takes 1–3 days once materials are on-site and the insurance claim is approved. Weather delays, extensive decking replacement, or specialty materials like standing-seam metal can add an extra day or two. We provide a clear timeline before work begins and keep you updated if anything changes.
