Living in Texas means your roof faces harsh weather conditions like sun, heat, hail, wind, and storms. When your roof suffers damage, navigating insurance claims for roof repairs can feel daunting. We’re here to guide you through the insurance claim process for roof repairs step by step. Whether you need to repair or replace your roof, you’ll have the right tools to file a claim. M&M Roofing’s fully staffed and experienced professionals are on hand to help you with any roof repairs and insurance claims due to unexpected damage.

Understanding Your Insurance Policy for Roof Repairs:

Before you file a claim, it’s crucial to understand what your insurance policy covers regarding roof repairs. Your insurance policy is your roadmap for navigating the claims process. Take the time to review the policy thoroughly. Be sure to pay close attention to coverage limits, deductibles, and any exclusions related to roofing. Then, call M&M Roofing to do an initial assessment.

Filing Your Claim for Roof Repairs:

When it comes time to file a claim, contact your insurance company promptly. Be prepared to provide detailed information about the damage, including the date it occurred and the cause. Your insurer will likely schedule an inspection to assess the damage themselves, but having your documentation ready will expedite the process. Make sure that you call M&M Roofing to meet you and the adjuster at the inspection.

Working with Adjusters:

During the inspection, an insurance adjuster will evaluate the extent of the damage and any other roofing issues. Make it a point to be present during this inspection to ensure that the adjuster properly documents all damage. When you choose M&M Roofing, one of our experienced home improvement professionals will meet you and your adjuster at the time of inspection. We will discuss every project element to help get all repairs paid. We will work with your adjuster to agree on the repair scope of work.

Determining the Correct Scope of Work with Your Insurance Company:

In some cases, your insurance company’s initial settlement offer may not fully cover the cost of repairs. Your trusted M&M Roofing contractor can provide a full scope of work and engage in what is called the “supplement process” to ensure that you are getting what you’re contractually entitled to so that you’re properly indemnified. Let M&M Roofing provide any additional evidence or documentation that supports your claim.

Completing the Roof Repairs:

One you’ve reached an agreement with your insurance company, it’s time to schedule the repairs. The team at M&M Roofing has experience in handling insurance claims of all sizes and will ensure that local building codes are adhered to and will obtain any necessary permits for the work.   Navigating insurance claims for roof repairs may seem overwhelming, but with the right partnership with M&M Roofing, you can streamline the process and ensure a successful outcome.
