FAQs
How do I know if my roof has storm damage?
Signs of storm damage on your roof can vary depending on the type of storm. Common indicators include missing or cracked shingles, dented metal components, leaks inside your home, and granules from shingles collecting in gutters. If you're uncertain, it's best to schedule a professional inspection to assess the extent of the damage.
What should I do immediately after a storm?
First, ensure your safety and the safety of your family. Avoid any fallen power lines and report them to the utility company. Document any visible damage by taking photos and videos. Then, reach out to a professional roofing contractor to conduct a thorough inspection and provide a detailed report for your insurance claim.
Will my insurance cover roof repairs or replacement?
Most homeowner's insurance policies cover roof repairs or replacement if the damage is due to a storm. It's important to review your specific policy for details. The insurance company will typically send an adjuster to inspect the damage before approving your claim. Having a professional roofing contractor present during this inspection can help ensure all damage is properly documented.
How long do I have to file an insurance claim for storm damage?
The timeframe for filing a storm damage insurance claim varies by insurance company and policy. Typically, you should file a claim as soon as possible after the storm to avoid complications. Check your policy details or contact your insurance provider for specific information about deadlines.
How long will it take to repair or replace my roof after storm damage?
The duration of repairs or replacement depends on the extent of damage, the size and type of your roof, weather conditions, and the availability of materials. Minor repairs might take a few days, while a full roof replacement could take a week or more. Your roofing contractor can provide a more accurate timeline after assessing the damage.
Can I choose any roofing contractor for repairs, or does it have to be one approved by my insurance company?
While your insurance company may recommend or have a list of preferred contractors, you typically have the right to choose any licensed and insured contractor for your roof repairs. It's crucial to select a reputable and experienced contractor who specializes in storm damage restoration. Be sure to verify their credentials and check reviews or references.
