Storm Damage Repair, frequently asked questions
What not to say to a roof insurance adjuster?
Avoid admitting fault, guessing at the age of your roof, saying the damage is “old” or pre-existing, or accepting the first estimate as final. Stick to the facts: when the storm happened and what damage you observed. Having your own licensed roofer present helps.
How long do I have to file a roof insurance claim?
Most policies require you to file within 1 year of the damage, but many recommend filing within days to weeks. Check your specific policy, waiting too long, or letting damage worsen, can lead to a denied claim.
Will filing a roof claim raise my insurance?
A single weather-related claim usually has less impact than multiple claims, but it can affect your premium. Weigh the repair cost against your deductible, if the damage is minor, paying out of pocket may be cheaper than claiming.
