Roof & Storm Leak Water Damage Smyrna, GA

Georgia thunderstorms do not mess around. A summer line of storms can drop heavy rain, throw down a tree limb, or drive wind under shingles and flashing, and once the roof envelope is breached the water runs straight into the attic and down through the ceilings. In Smyrna, older roofs and the big trees over so many neighborhoods make storm leaks one of the most common calls we get from spring through fall.

How storms get water into Smyrna homes

Wind driven rain forced under shingles, ridge caps, and flashing
A limb or falling tree that punctures the decking
Aged or lifted flashing at chimneys, valleys, and vents
Clogged gutters and valleys backing water up under the edge

Once water is in the attic it soaks insulation and drips down as a ceiling leak into the living space. Fast action and structural drying keep a storm leak from spreading through the whole upper floor.

Before the next storm season

Have the roof and flashing inspected and keep gutters and valleys clear
Trim limbs that overhang the roof
Watch the attic and top floor ceilings for the first stain after a big storm

The National Weather Service, Peachtree City issues the watches and warnings worth heeding, and our drying follows the standards published by the IICRC.

Tarp first, repair second

A permanent roof repair may have to wait for a dry day and a roofer. A proper emergency tarp stops the water now, which protects everything under it and limits the loss while the repair is scheduled.

A storm dropped a limb through part of our roof and the rain poured into the attic. They had it tarped and the attic drying by that evening, and documented everything for the insurance. It made a stressful night a lot easier.

Can you tarp my roof at night or in the rain?

We tarp as soon as it is safe to get on the roof. If conditions are too dangerous in the moment we take steps inside to contain and extract the water, then tarp the moment it is safe, day or night.

Do you repair the roof too?

We provide the emergency tarp and handle the water damage, the extraction and drying, and coordinate with your roofer for the permanent repair. The two move together so your home is protected in the meantime.

Is storm roof damage covered by insurance?

Sudden storm damage to the roof and the resulting interior water damage are usually covered on a Georgia homeowners policy. We document the storm loss the way an adjuster needs it and bill your carrier directly.

Water came through the ceiling after a storm, is that a roof leak?

Often, but not always. Storm water in the attic drips down as a ceiling stain, but an interior source can look the same. We trace it to the true source before drying so the right thing gets repaired.

How fast do I need to act after a storm leak?

Quickly. Wet insulation and drywall spread the damage and start to smell within a day or two in Georgia humidity, so the sooner we tarp, extract, and dry, the more of your home stays intact.

What can I do to reduce storm leaks?

Keep the roof and flashing inspected, clear gutters and valleys, and trim limbs overhanging the roof. After a big storm, check the attic and top floor ceilings for the first sign of a stain.
