Rolling Hills, CA
Storm damage roofing in Rolling Hills
Photograph everything before anybody touches the roof. A record made on the day is worth more than any description afterwards.
Describe the storm damage job
Three questions, then the address. Up to three Rolling Hills contractors who do this work.
You are on the list.
No provider in Rolling Hills is taking requests through this service yet. We are lining them up, and yours is kept until one can.
- Nobody gets your details yet. Your request stays with us and is not passed to any company.
- One email when someone can help. When a provider covering your area can take it on, we email you once and ask whether you want that company, by name, to contact you.
- Deleted after 90 days. If nobody can take it on, or you do not say yes, your contact details are deleted 90 days after your request.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
Nobody will call you about this request unless you say yes to a company by name.
Before you let anybody on the roof
The things worth pinning down on a storm damage job. A contractor who has not raised them has not looked properly.
- Photographs of the damage before any work happens
- A local address you could actually drive to
- What the emergency tarp costs, separate from the repair
- A written scope of the work, line by line
- Whether the contractor is licensed and insured in this state
Keep every receipt, including the tarp and the emergency call-out. They are part of the record of what happened and what it cost.
Photograph the outside, the inside, and the date. Then get a tarp on it. Photographs of the original damage are a record nobody can argue with; a description of what it looked like before the repair is not.
A local contractor who inspects and documents properly is more use to you than a fast one who is already on the roof.
Locally
Then, less dramatically: the marine layer keeping the north slope damp. Nothing dramatic happens. A slope stays damp most mornings for thirty years, and eventually that is enough.
About storm damage here
How quickly will someone call?
Usually within the hour during working hours. If you marked the job as an emergency it goes to the front of the queue and is normally picked up faster than that.
Are the contractors licensed and insured?
Contractors have to give us their state licence number and proof of liability and workers compensation cover before they can receive requests. You should still ask to see current certificates yourself before work starts — a licence can lapse between checks.
What happens to my information?
Your details are passed to up to three local roofing contractors so they can quote. That is the only use. You can ask us to delete them at any time, and there is a do-not-sell page for exactly that.
Do you handle commercial buildings?
We do. It is a different set of contractors — commercial and low-slope work is a separate trade from residential re-roofing — so answering the property question accurately matters.
What is it going to cost?
Free, no obligation, and your details go to no company until you say yes.
