Storm damage and insurance
Most roofs in this area are replaced because of a storm rather than age alone. Claims turn on documentation gathered while the damage is fresh, which is why our inspection report is written the way an adjuster reads one — slope by slope, with soft metals and measurements included. You file the claim; we make sure the evidence is there.
Be careful who you sign with
Every hail event brings crews from out of state. Before you sign: confirm licensing and insurance in your jurisdiction, never assign your claim to a contractor, avoid large up-front deposits, and walk away from anyone offering to waive or absorb your deductible — in many states that is fraud, and it implicates the homeowner too.

Frequently asked questions
- Will filing a claim raise my rates?
- That is your carrier's decision, and a widespread storm event is treated differently than an at-fault claim. Ask your agent directly, and be skeptical of any contractor who answers that for you.
- Do you do emergency tarping?
- Yes, 24 hours a day. We stop the water first and photograph the damage before covering it.
- How do I know if I have hail damage?
- You usually cannot tell from the ground. Hail fractures the mat under the granules rather than punching a hole. A proper inspection also checks soft metals — gutters, vents, screens, AC fins — which help date the event.
- What if my claim was denied?
- A denial is often the result of incomplete documentation rather than an absence of damage. You can request a re-inspection, and thorough slope-by-slope evidence is what reopens files.
