Roofing Insurance
If your home has had significant damages from natural disasters such as storms, hailstorms, etc., speak with an adjuster to see what benefits might be available that would not otherwise apply without this situation. This includes emergency living expenses or loss of use coverage which can cover costs incurred because these situations are not covered by your roofer’s insurance.
Roof Insurance Claims: Points to Note
- Get a roof inspection report: A professional roof inspector will inspect your roof and provide you with an estimate on the cost of repairs that might require replacing shingles, repairing roofs etc. You’ll then have this information to take to your roof’s insurance company, who will then be able to assess whether the roof is worth repairing or replacing.
- File a claim: Your roofing warranty should come with instructions for filing a roof damage claim and it may also include advice on how to get the best repair job possible. It might say that you need an estimate of roof damage before filing a roofing claim. The roof inspector should provide you with this estimate but if not, you can get an estimate from another roofer instead.
- Communicate: If your building is insured, then the roof’s insurer will need to be contacted in order for them to take responsibility and manage the repair job or replacement of shingles. Be sure to mention that there is roof damage and you want the roofing company they use for roof repairs or roof replacement.
- Inspect: It’s important not only to have a roofer come out and assess your roof, but also inspect all other areas of your home with water leaks in order to prevent them from getting worse. If the leak has already worsened, it could lead to mold growth which can be dangerous if left untreated long-term.
