ROOFING CLAIMS PROCESS

1: You suspect you have hail damage & probably want to
file a claim if it is extensive.

2:
Call a local roofing company to inspect for hail damage
& to asses if it is extensive enough to get the claim
approved.

3:
Call your insurance company to file the claim.

4:
The adjuster will call you to tell you when he/she will
be out to inspect the damage.

5: The claim is approved. You will receive the claims
paperwork via email. This details all of the specific
damage that the insurance company is paying to fix.

6:
You will receive the first check called ACV (Actual Cash
Value). This is the first of 2 checks. Sign & deposit into
your bank account.

7:
Call the local roofing company that you have chosen to
go with. You will be asked to cut a check from your
account for the amount of the 1st check plus your
deductible.

8: The project gets scheduled and all the work is done
exactly as directed by claims paperwork.

9: Upon completion of the project the roofing company
will send documentation and certification of
completion to the insurance company. Thus releasing
the final check (Depreciation).

10:
You deposit the last check into your account and then
write a check to the roofing company.

11: Receive a thank you note from the roofing company.

12: Contact your insurance agent and let them know you
have a brand new roof and to endorse your policy to
reflect the new roof. This will often result in a reduced
premium on your homeowners policy.
