Storm damage can create serious problems for your roof. High winds, hail, heavy rain, and flying debris can damage shingles, flashing, gutters, and roof decking. As a result, small issues can quickly turn into leaks and costly repairs.
A professional roofing contractor can provide valuable insight during the claim process. Our team can inspect your roof and explain the damage in simple terms. We can also help you determine whether your roof needs repairs or replacement.
Insurance claims can involve several steps. Therefore, you should understand your policy before damage happens. Some policies cover storm damage, while others include limits or exclusions.
Here are a few common issues that may affect your roofing insurance claim:
Insurance companies may deny damage caused by poor maintenance. Regular roof inspections help protect your home and your claim. They also show that you take care of your property.
Some policies may limit coverage for certain roofing materials. Your policy may not cover upgraded materials or specialty products. Therefore, you should review your coverage before choosing a repair option.
Many insurance companies look closely at older roofing systems. Some policies limit coverage when a roof reaches 20 years old or more. They may also count the age from the oldest roofing layer. As a result, a second layer of shingles may not reset your roof’s age.
Insurance companies may deny coverage when a roof has too many layers. Many policies limit coverage for roofs with more than two layers. A professional inspection can help identify this issue early.
Some claims only cover roof repairs. Other claims may support a full roof replacement. The decision often depends on the type and severity of the damage. Absolute Roofing & Construction can inspect your roof and explain your options.
