Dealing with a storm-damaged home can be stressful, and dealing with the insurance claims process is, for many homeowners, the most difficult part of the process.
Legend’s Roofing has helped thousands of homeowners complete their restorations, and our team has shared some of our best tips for navigating your roof claim.
- Have an Inspection: All damage can’t be easily seen from the ground. A problem has to be identified before it can be included in your claim. That’s why having a thorough inspection is so important.
- Ensure Damage is Documented: The roofers that perform your inspection should provide a detailed report and images that can be shared with the insurance adjuster.
- Understand Your Policy: Most homeowner's policies cover damage from severe weather, but you need to understand what your specific policy does and does not cover. Your insurance agent will be able to answer any questions you have about your policy.
- Get Estimates from Reliable Companies: Getting estimates from repairs is part of the process and the claim cannot be processed until estimates have been gathered.
- Report the Claim: Don’t wait to report your claim. Call your insurance company as soon as possible after the damage occurs.
- Meet with Adjusters: Once the claim is reported, an adjuster from your insurance company will visit your home to verify the damage. In most cases, this is a necessary part of the process. In rare cases, the insurance company may accept photos or video in lieu of an in-person visit from an adjuster.
- Get Help from Professionals: Many storm damage restoration companies help with the claims process by providing needed documentation and, in some cases, meeting with insurance adjusters to explain their findings.
