Unbeknownst to us since we were out of town, we had a hail storm that came thru our part of Georgia back on May 15th, 2008. When our neighbors began to have their roofs replaced a few months ago, we learned hail damage to be the culprit. A local roofer found similar damage to our roof, so we filed a claim.
Our insurance carrier contracted with an independent adjuster who found major hail damage not only to the roof, but all air vents, turbines, chimney metal encasement, gutters, and even some of our window screens.
Upon getting the official claim estimate, we contracted with the same roofer who came highly recommended by our neighbors-- and work began on Monday , May 20th. Three days later, we had a new 25 year Onyx roof.
We had all the guttering removed and another contractor whom we're used more than once, replaced/repaired all rotten facial board ---a painter came behind him with caulking gun and trim paint.
On May 24th, the gutter company arrived in the pm and began to replace the 5 inch gutters with 6 inch. Also, additional down spouts were added. Monday, May 27th the gutters were all installed.
Here are a few photos of the new roof and gutters.
New roof but sans gutters.
