First Things First: A Roof Inspection
​
Before you contact your insurance agent, the most important thing you can do is to communicate with a Roofing contractor. By hiring a professional roofer, you can have your roof properly inspected. Our team of contractors knows what to look for and how to pinpoint roof damage. Once we finish our inspection, we can provide both you and your insurance adjuster a detailed, accurate report.

We can guide you through the entire insurance claims process step by step. Once you know how to contact your insurance company, make sure you have your policy number ready.

An agent will request a date and approximate time that the damaged occurred, which we will provide to you.

Your insurance company will ask you questions to determine what areas of the home are affected. Our inspection will include a detailed report on the condition of the roof and a recommendation on how to proceed that you can share with your insurance company.

Meeting with the Adjuster and Your Roofing Contractor
​
Within 24-48 hours of filing a claim, you will receive a call from an adjuster to inspect the property. Do not accept appointments with greater than a one-hour window. Also, avoid allowing appointments less than 24 hours ahead of time. A precise meeting time is necessary so that all parties involved, including A Roofing contractor, can show up without any inconvenience.

​Adjusters should be able to make a recommendation to the insurance company based on evidence gathered at this time. It is the contractor’s job to help gather evidence of the home’s exterior. It’s the homeowner’s job to point out any internal damage. In either case, it is important to be thorough and accurate. At the conclusion of the appointment, the adjuster will want to summarize his or her findings. If there is any disagreement between our experts and the insurance adjuster, we will make statements and ask questions to help us understand his conclusion.
