How Does Insurance Work with Storm Roof Damage?
When we are dealing with insurance claims for roof repairs due to storm damage, we ask that certain steps are taken to ensure the process is a smooth one.
1. Insurance Adjusters Report- By supplying us with your insurance adjusters report, we are able to gauge the amount of work needed to complete the job. We want to ensure the report was fairly evaluated and that all repairs will be covered that needs to be completed.
2. If any repairs are needed that aren’t mentioned in the report, we compare our notes with theirs and make any supplements needed in case something was missed.
3. All signed contracts are then faxed to the insurance company for approval.
How We Assess & Inspect a Roof for Storm Damage
Your roof needs to be able to withstand the harsh elements nature throws its way. Sometimes, the storms are too strong and your roof sustains damage. When a roofing expert at Professional Home Roofers comes to inspect your roof after a storm, here are some of the things we look for.
• Check for Leaks & Water Damage- One of the first things we look for is water damage due to leaking in your attic. This may or may not include water damage to your walls and drywall as well.
• Visually Inspect for Damage- Usually, with storm damage, you can see missing shingles and other damage from the ground. This may include damage to your chimney as well if you have one.
• Downed Trees- This is one of the most destructive results of storm damage and can be very dangerous.
• Hail Damage- Unlike wind or rain damage, hail damage appears as small dimples in your siding.
