Storm Damage Roof Claims Handled Correctly
Roofing insurance claims assistance for homeowners in Jasper
You filed a claim after storm damage, and now you're dealing with an adjuster who may not see all the damage or understand what the repair actually requires. Roofing Georgia works directly with insurance companies in Jasper to document damage, meet adjusters on-site, and ensure the scope matches what your roof needs. We've handled hundreds of claims and know how to present damage in a way that protects your coverage without inflating costs or creating disputes.
The process starts with a full roof inspection to identify hail impact, wind damage, or other storm-related issues that qualify under your policy. We photograph the damage, document it in a format insurance companies recognize, and submit a detailed scope that includes all necessary repairs. Many policies cover full replacement when damage exceeds a certain threshold, and we help you understand whether repair or replacement is the correct path based on what the adjuster approves and what your roof actually needs.
If you're navigating a roof claim in Jasper and want someone who knows the insurance process, contact us to schedule an inspection and claim review.
Key Benefits of This Service
We meet the adjuster on your roof and walk through the damage together, pointing out issues that might otherwise be missed or dismissed. This includes bruising on shingles from hail, lifted edges from wind, damaged flashing, and compromised underlayment. Many adjusters work quickly and may not climb onto steep or multi-story roofs in Jasper, so having a contractor present ensures nothing is overlooked.
After the inspection, Roofing Georgia prepares a line-item estimate that matches the format your insurance company uses, making it easier to compare and approve. We include material specifications, labor costs, and code-required upgrades that apply to your area. You'll receive a clear explanation of what the adjuster approved, what was denied, and whether it makes sense to file a supplement for additional damage found during tear-off.
We do not handle claims for cosmetic damage or damage that falls below your deductible threshold. Our process is designed for legitimate storm events where the roof sustained functional damage that affects its ability to shed water or resist future weather. If your claim is denied or partially approved, we provide documentation you can use to appeal or request re-inspection.
What's Included in This Service
Homeowners in Jasper often ask how the claims process works and what they should expect when working with both a contractor and an insurance adjuster.
What does a roofing contractor do during an insurance claim?
We inspect the roof for covered damage, document it with photos and measurements, and meet the adjuster to review findings. After the adjuster writes their estimate, we compare it to the actual scope and request supplements if necessary.
How long does the insurance claim process take?
Most claims are reviewed within seven to ten days after the adjuster's visit. If the claim is approved, scheduling depends on your deductible payment and material availability, but many Jasper projects start within two to three weeks of approval.
What happens if the adjuster and contractor estimates don't match?
We submit a supplement with photos and documentation showing the additional damage or scope differences. Insurance companies expect some variation and will review the request, though approval depends on whether the items are covered under your policy terms.
Why do some claims get denied even after storm damage?
Policies exclude certain types of damage, such as wear and tear, aging, or improper installation. If the adjuster determines the damage existed before the storm or falls below the policy threshold, the claim may be denied or reduced.
What should I do if my roof has more damage than the adjuster approved?
Let us know before we start the tear-off, and we'll document the additional damage with photos and submit a supplement. Most insurance companies in Jasper allow for hidden damage found during removal, as long as it's reported promptly and ties to the original storm event.
Insurance claims require accurate documentation, clear communication with adjusters, and a contractor who understands policy language and repair standards.
