Tip No. 2 On Filing A Roof Insurance Claim: Assess The Extent Of Damage
Katelyn Lewis • September 13, 2022
If you think there may be damage to your roof after a storm, you may consider filing a claim with your homeowners’ insurance company. Let’s get you on the right track to do so.
Tip no. 2: Assess the extent of damage.
Let’s say a tree limb has pierced your roof, causing large water bubbles to form on the ceiling of your son’s bedroom as the storm carries on. In this case, you would not only need the roof to be repaired, but also the drywall to be patched and painted. You should assess and document the extent of damage for your entire home, not just your roof, before you contact your insurer to start a claim.
And if you need an estimated cost for repairing the roof, schedule a complimentary roof assessment with Retex. Call us today at 804-258-6300.
