What insurers underpay on roof and wind damage claims
These are the line items we examine on every roof and wind damage claim. This is the coverage that is most often missed, depreciated, or excluded from the initial offer.
Wind vs. wear and tear
Insurers point to the age of the roof as the cause. We document the storm event and the damage pattern that ties the loss to wind.
Functional vs. cosmetic hail damage
Bruising and granule loss get labeled cosmetic to avoid replacement. We document the functional damage to the roofing system.
Full replacement vs. patch
Spot repairs that void warranties or cannot be matched often justify full replacement under your policy.
Matching siding, gutters & trim
Damage rarely stops at the shingles. Matching obligations for siding, gutters, and trim are often left out of the first estimate.
