File Your Claim

Call or go online to the claims department of your insurance company to file a claim using the date of loss (when the storm happened). They will require some basic information to get the claim filed.

Get Your Claim Number

Once the claim is filed they will assign a claim number to the claim, this is how it's tracked throughout the entire process.

Claim Adjuster Meeting

The insurance company will assign an adjuster to come to your property to assess the damages. We like to meet the adjuster at the property the day of, to go through what we are seeing and be an advocate for you, the home/property owner.

Estimate

The insurance adjuster will then write an estimate according to the size and scope of the damages found, using a universal pricing software (Xactimate). At this time the insurance company will issue the first check called the "Net Claim". An important note is; with an RCV policy the insurance company will withhold "recoverable depreciation".

Share Estimate

This estimate can be shared with your trusted roofing professional for accuracy of components on the roof and other parts of the property according to size and scope. Insurance companies are required to pay to restore your property back to pre-storm condition, using existing "like kind and quality" of products.
