Insurance Claim Coverage
The types of roofing services or extent of coverage will vary based on your specific insurance policy, as well as on the particular circumstances related to the damage on your roof.
Under the right circumstances, your insurance can cover any roofing service included in your policy, such as roof repair, roof replacement, roof inspections, skylight repair, skylight replacement, painting jobs, roof coating, roof cleaning, siding, and exterior paintwork.
If you are unsure of which roofing services are covered by insurance, call your insurance provider to obtain the specifics of your plan.
Note: your insurance company CANNOT penalize you for submitting a claim when an extreme weather event damages your roof, such as a hail storm or wind storm.
By law, in cases of extreme weather events, your insurance company must pay for the fair market value of skilled labor and materials used for providing the roofing service to your home’s roof.
Step-By-Step
Insurance Claim Process
STEP 1. The first step is to contact your insurance company and schedule a meeting with your insurance adjuster to evaluate your roof’s hail damage.
STEP 2. Once an adjuster has reached out to you, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Austin Roof Specialists when the appointment is approaching so that we can be near when your adjuster examines your home/business.
STEP 3. If a significant storm has happened, many adjusters are flooded with calls, and they might feel hurried to get to the next home. Having a local Austin Roof Specialist near can ensure that no costs are dropped on your claim, saving you money and time.
STEP 4. Your insurance company will write you a check for the costs minus your deductible and recoverable depreciation. Once your roof is repaired, you will receive a final check referred to as recoverable depreciation.
STEP 5. Your insurance company will give you a packet that includes their appraisal of your new roof. In most instances, it is unclear how compensation is meant to be used. Your local Austin Roof Specialist will help you translate the package, answer your questions, and explain each item.
