Step 2: Filing Your Insurance Claim
Once storm damage has been confirmed, the next step is to submit a claim to your insurance provider.
Key Information for Filing a Claim:
- Contact your insurance company’s claims department to initiate the claim process.
- Provide:
- The date and time of the storm event.
- Your insurance policy number.
- The roof inspection report and damage photos.
- Your insurance provider will assign you a claim number, which will be used throughout the claims process.
The roofing contractor can assist in understanding your insurance paperwork and answer any questions about repair estimates.
Step 3: Insurance Adjuster Inspection
After your claim is submitted, your insurance company will assign an adjuster to inspect your roof and assess the extent of the damage.
What to Expect:
- The adjuster will typically contact you within 48 hours to schedule an inspection.
- Once you receive a confirmed inspection date, notify your roofing contractor so they can be present.
Why Should a Roofing Contractor Be Present?
- Insurance adjusters represent the insurance company’s interests and may not always account for all necessary repairs.
- A roofing contractor ensures that all storm damage is properly documented and that the repair scope aligns with local building codes and industry standards.
- If needed, the contractor can request additional coverage for necessary repairs.
While the contractor can advocate for accurate repairs, they do not negotiate claim settlements on your behalf.
Step 4: Reviewing Your Insurance Estimate
Once the adjuster has completed the inspection, you will receive a Scope of Work (insurance estimate) detailing:
- Approved repairs and replacement costs.
- Depreciation (if applicable).
- Your insurance policy deductible.
What to Do Next:
- Share the insurance paperwork with the roofing contractor for review.
- The contractor will verify whether all necessary repairs are included in the estimate.
- If the insurance estimate misses any essential repairs, the contractor may assist in requesting additional coverage through a supplemental claim.
Typical Processing Time: Insurance paperwork usually arrives within 7-10 days after the adjuster’s inspection.
Step 5: Roof Replacement and Insurance Payment Process
Most storm damage insurance claims are paid in multiple installments:
First Payment – ACV (Actual Cash Value Payment)
- This initial payment is issued after claim approval.
- It covers the depreciated value of the roof based on its age and condition.
Roof Replacement Begins
- Once the ACV payment is received, the roofing contractor will schedule your roof replacement.
- You are responsible for paying your insurance deductible per your policy.
Second Payment – Recoverable Depreciation & Final Invoice
- If your policy includes Recoverable Depreciation, the insurance company will release an additional payment after the work is completed.
- The contractor will submit a final invoice to the insurance company to ensure you receive all eligible funds.
- Once the final payment is processed, you will submit the balance to the contractor.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I know if my roof damage qualifies for an insurance claim?
If your roof has missing shingles, leaks, hail damage, or other storm-related issues, you may qualify for insurance coverage. The roofing contractors we refer can conduct a free inspection and provide documentation for your claim
Will my insurance rates increase if I file a claim?
Most insurance companies do not increase rates for weather-related claims, as these events are considered acts of nature. However, we recommend consulting your insurance provider for clarification.
How long does the insurance claims process take?
The process typically takes 2-4 weeks, depending on your insurance provider and adjuster availability.
Do I need multiple quotes for my insurance claim?
No. Insurance companies generally issue a set payout based on their own assessment. However, if their estimate is too low, the roofing contractor can assist in requesting a supplement for additional coverage.
What happens if my claim is denied?
If your claim is denied, you have the right to request a reinspection. The contractor can provide additional evidence and documentation to support your case.
