Is roof repair covered by insurance?

Sudden damage from storms, hail or falling trees is usually covered after your deductible. Wear, age and deferred maintenance are not.

Most repairs are done in two to six hours. Decking replacement or chimney reflashing can take a full day.

Should I repair or replace my roof?

Repair if the roof is under about 12 years old and damage is confined to one area. Replace if damage exceeds 30% of the surface or the roof is near the end of its rated life.

What is the most common cause of roof leaks?

Failed flashing around chimneys, vents and valleys — not the shingle field itself.

Can I get a temporary fix?

Yes. Emergency tarping costs $200 to $800 and buys you weeks to schedule a proper repair or an insurance inspection.
