Eagan Roofing Contractors & Hail Damage Professionals

Monday, July 23rd, 2012

To some individuals, hail damage may not seem like a big deal. Their car survived, so their roof survived. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. Just because the car made it unscathed doesn’t mean the roof did. That is why you should have an inspection of the roof performed by a qualified Eagan hail damage repair company after the storm so you know whether or not you need to file a claim with your insurance company to pay for the repairs.

If you do need to file a claim with your insurance company, you can use the free estimate that we provide you with in your claim. Yes, they will send an insurance adjuster to assess the damage and determine whether or not you have a claim and for how much, but your odds of having your claim approved increases when you are prepared.

Insurance Claim Checklist

Here is a checklist of the things you need to do when a hail storm does damage to your home:

  • Call Glacier Companies after the storm.
  • Check your insurance policy for the claims hotline and call the hotline.
  • Take photographs of the damage.
  • If you thought to collect one of the hail stones and place it in the freezer, show the insurance adjuster when they arrive.
  • Make sure you note the exact time and date of the storm and what happened during the storm while it is still fresh in your mind. You can prove the insurance company with this information.

Crystal Hail Damage Expert & Roofing Contractor

Monday, July 23rd, 2012

Roof replacement can be a difficult decision. This is because of the cost. At the same time, you know that not replacing your roof is going to lead to even more expenses in the future because the roof will eventually fail. This failure comes in the form of cracks and weaknesses that may not stand up to more storms. Water can infiltrate the cracks and make its way into your home, causing mold issues and weakening the structure.

While it may seem as if it is a no brainer to opt for restoration, it is. There are some options that customers like to review before they make the final decision to replace their roof.

Replacement VS. Restoration

One other option that we offer as a Crystal roofing contractor is roof restoration. This is an option that you can choose if you’re not yet ready for replacement. However, the roof does need to be in reasonably good shape for restoration to work. We do use the latest techniques and advanced technology when restoring a roof, but some roofs can’t be restored. If that’s the case with yours, we will review this with you and provide you with replacement options that may fit within your budget. We also have financing available if you do not have the cash on-hand. Even if you have to finance, roof replacement will pay for itself over time by preventing additional damage from occurring to your home and adding value to your home.

Chaska Roofing Contractor & Hail Damage Expert

Monday, July 23rd, 2012

When storms strike that contain hail, it is almost always certain that some kind of hail damage exists. Even if the damage is not visible, that doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Small cracks can allow moisture in and this moisture can flow into your attic, causing dampness and mold. It can even affect your ceiling and the walls of the living quarters to your home. An inspection after a storm by a qualified Chaska hail damage repair company is how you can know whether or not damage occurred after a hail storm.

In addition, if small cracks in the roof are allowed to persist, then they can become larger. Eventually, total roof replacement may be needed instead of just repairs. Then again, some hail storms contain hail stones so large that they actually puncture a roof, making the damage quite evident.

The Insurance Company

As soon as the damage occurs, it is imperative to file a claim with your insurance company immediately so that an insurance adjuster can be sent to your home to assess the damage. We can provide our own estimate, which can help you in the claims process. Also be sure to take pictures of the damage and print a set for yourself and a set for the insurance company. Keeping your own records can help you in the claims process and increase your chances of receiving the compensation you need to pay for repairs or roof replacement.

Seamless Gutters

One of the newest raves in gutter systems is the seamless gutter. This is because it is exactly as it says…seamless, which minimizes rusting and allows the gutters to stay together much easier. The gutter system is a very important part of the roofing system because it gives the water somewhere to go as it rolls off the roof rather than around the home’s foundation where it can seep through the foundation into the basement or crawl space. This can be devastating to the integrity of the home, but seamless gutters significantly reduce the odds of this happening.

Roof Replacement

There are some things that you do need to keep in mind when it comes to roof replacement. The primary item is to understand the labor warranty. This is one of the most misunderstood aspects of roof replacement. When the components to your roof are installed, there is a manufacturer’s warranty. In order for this warranty to kick in, you have to mail in the provided paperwork. The paperwork must also have the signature of the roofing contractor who performed the installation.

Nonetheless, the manufacturer’s warranty is void if the roofing was not installed properly. What you want is a warranty that is all inclusive. You should have a labor warranty that is signed by the contractor. This is something that you need to discuss when receiving your free estimate so that you understand it before the roof replacement process begins.

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011

We use only the latest and safest techniques to remove ice dams from your home. An ice dam can cause enough damage as it is, so the last thing you want is to have techniques used that damage your roof.

In other words, there is standing water on the roof and it has no way to escape. The only way it can escape is if there are cracks in the roof and, ultimately, the water standing for a long period of time can be responsible for those cracks. The water then flows through them and into the home’s attic, ceiling, or inside the walls. The damage can be quite extensive to the overall structure of your home and this can be very expensive.

It is through our Minneapolis ice dam removal services that you can keep the roof of your home in fantastic shape, which will save you a great deal of money in the long-term.

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011

Fortunately, there are ways to prevent those stubborn ice dams from forming on your roof. You can rake or shovel along the roof line approximately 2 to 4 feet behind the gutter.
