Get a written quoteOlder metal roofs on rural properties are common, and the failure point is almost always the fastener gaskets, not the panels. Class 4 shingle still pays for itself on the fringe because carriers price by county, not by how often your particular street gets hit. Most construction here dates from the '80s and '90s, so roofs are on their second cycle and carriers increasingly want to see a replacement date.
What it costs in Dunwoody: a professional tarp install is a few hundred dollars and is nearly always reimbursable under a storm claim as mitigation — keep the receipt.
Georgia doesn't issue a roofing-specific license — most roofing falls under the state's Residential-Basic or General Contractor license once a job crosses the state's licensing threshold. We check that license, insurance, and standing with the state board before a roofer ever sees a lead.
How it works
If the damage is from a covered event, tarping is a mitigation expense the policy expects you to incur. Photograph the damage before the tarp goes on.
Weeks, not months. Sun degrades the plastic and wind works the fasteners loose. It buys time for a proper repair or claim, not a season.
