Shingles lifted after that last storm, who do I call?

Found a few shingle tabs in the side yard after the storm last week and there's a lot of granules collecting at the bottom of my downspouts. House is in Oakwood, roof is maybe 17 years old.

I'm guessing insurance might be involved but I have no idea how that works. Anyone have a roofer they'd actually send to their own mom?

Southern Premier Roofing. They helped us through a hail claim a couple years back and handled most of the back and forth with the adjuster. Get them out before you file so you know what you're looking at.

not your adjuster, just an adjuster

Seconding Southern Premier. They're GAF certified, which matters for the warranty if you end up replacing. Granules in the downspouts at 17 years is pretty normal wear though, so don't let anyone panic you.

Thanks both. @adjusterandy did they charge anything for the inspection, or was that free?

Ours was free. Could have changed since then, ask when you call. (984) 200-3308

Used them in Cary. No complaints.
