Question 1

How do I know if I need roof repair or roof replacement?

Accepted Answer

If damage is limited to a small area and the roof still has good overall life, repairs may be enough. If shingles are failing across large sections, the roof is near the end of its life, or storms compromised multiple slopes, replacement is often the safer long-term option.

Question 2

What should I do right after a storm if I suspect roof damage?

Accepted Answer

Look for missing shingles, dents in vents/gutters, water staining, or debris impact. Avoid climbing on the roof. Schedule an inspection quickly so damage can be documented and stabilized before leaks spread.

Question 3

Does homeowners insurance cover hail or wind roof damage?

Accepted Answer

Coverage depends on your policy and the type of damage. If the storm created functional damage (not just cosmetic), claims are more likely to be approved. Proper documentation helps.

Question 4

How long does a roof replacement usually take?

Accepted Answer

Many standard residential roof replacements can be completed in one day, but timeline depends on roof size, complexity, weather, and whether decking repairs are needed.

Question 5

Is fiber cement siding better than vinyl in Michigan?

Accepted Answer

Fiber cement is typically more impact-resistant and can offer a higher-end look. Vinyl is often the best value and lowest maintenance. The “better” choice depends on your budget, style preference, and long-term plans for the home.

Question 6

Do gutter guards actually work?

Accepted Answer

They can help reduce clogs, but performance depends on the guard style, roof runoff volume, and tree coverage. We’ll recommend guards only when they fit your situation.
