When to call

Signs of storm damage you can check from the ground

Don't climb on a wet or damaged roof. Binoculars or phone zoom from the yard are enough to start.

Insurance

Storm damage and your insurance claim

  • Give you dated photos and a written scope you can attach to your claim.
  • Explain in plain words what's storm damage and what's normal wear, because your adjuster will make that distinction too.
  • Meet your insurance adjuster on the roof if you'd like.

sudden, accidental damage, such as shingles blown off by wind, hail impacts, a tree falling on the roof, and water damage inside caused by that event. Policies vary; check your deductible (many NJ policies have a separate wind or hurricane deductible).

What insurers usually don't cover: old age and wear, leaks that have been going on for months, poor past installation, and moss or rot from lack of maintenance.

What we don't do: we don't tell you what your claim will pay, we don't "waive your deductible", and we don't ask you to sign over your claim. The decision is your insurer's. Our job is accurate documentation and a fair price for the work.

  • Report the damage to your insurer soon after the storm; most policies require prompt notice.
  • Keep receipts for tarping and emergency work: they're often part of the claim.
  • Take your own photos inside and out before anything is moved.

FAQ

Storm damage questions

How do I know if my roof has storm damage?

Look for missing or creased shingles, missing ridge caps, dented gutters and new ceiling stains. Many lifted shingles can't be seen from the ground, which is why we inspect the whole roof.

Should I call you or my insurance company first?

If water is coming in, call us first to stop it, then open the claim. If it's dry, either order works; our photo report helps the claim.

Will insurance replace my whole roof?

Sometimes, if the damage is widespread. Often they pay for a repair of the damaged slopes. We can't promise the outcome. We document the damage accurately so the insurer has what it needs.

How long do I have to report storm damage?

It depends on your policy, but most require prompt notice. Don't wait for the next storm.

Can you match my existing shingles?

Usually close. If your line is discontinued, we show you the nearest match before we start.

Do you remove trees from the roof?

Large trees need a tree service with a crane. We can coordinate with one and tarp right after.
