ROOFING & SIDING

Once a weather event such as a wind or hail storm hits, look for the following:

• Shingles- Look for creased, broken, missing, or damaged shingles
• Water Damage- Is there interior water penetration such as paint bubbling, cracking, water marks, mold, or damp insulation.
• Gutters/Downspouts/Metal Flashings-Look for dings, dents, discolorations. or breaks in any of the metal portions of your exterior
• Siding- Vinyl siding typically has visible breaks or cracks. Aluminum is much harder to see the dents or discolorations. 

If you notice any of these items or are unsure, let our HAAG certified inspectors take a look to ensure you get the most for what you pay for.

YES!

No, your insurance rates won't always go up if YOU file a claim. But...if insurance companies see a big spike in your AREA, then rates can go up across the board for all the houses in your specific area. So whether you file a claim or not, you still may be in for an increase because all your neighbors (who now have new roofs) did file claims.

We always tell homeowners to not be the odd man out when it comes to roofing or siding replacements

1 Year is the typical amount of time Insurance companies allow homeowners to file a damage claim. This does vary company to company though. Obviously, we suggest getting an inspection as soon as damage is suspected. Inspections are FREE and can be preformed whether your home or not.
