If you are noticing signs of roof damage after a storm, it is very important that you file a roof insurance claim as quickly as possible.

Whether the damage seems large or minor, you can never truly know the full extent of any roof damage without a full inspection by an experienced roofing professional.

While you do not necessarily need to hire a professional roof inspector before contacting your home insurance providers, it is definitely highly recommended as a roofer can:

• Identify existing roofing damage
• Identify existing damage for hail dents
• Provide a quote for repairs and/or replacements
• Provide a summary letter to your insurance provider

While immediate repairs are necessary to prevent further damage, also consider the potential long-term impact of the storm damage on your home’s value and structural integrity. Even if the damage seems minor, factors such as compromised roofing, water infiltration, or weakened foundations can lead to more significant issues over time. Filing a claim to address these underlying concerns can prevent more extensive and costly repairs down the road.

However, we do recommend that homeowners prepare the following information to confidently proceed with their insurance claim process:

– Summary of Roof Damage
– Photos of Roof Damage
– Age of Existing Roof
– Date of Storm
– Quotes from a reputable Roofing Company
– Status of any active roof manufacturing or installation warranties

While dealing with insurance claims may seem like a challenging task, it is essential to note that many insurance companies have a limited timeframe where homeowners can file a claim.
