CHECK YOUR POLICY

Taking an insurance policy is a significant first step, but do you know exactly what yours covers? For instance, most companies will only cover accidental damage such as storm damage but not the damage they deem avoidable or due to poor maintenance.

More specifically, you want to know which type of damage and roof is covered and the amount the insurance company will help you pay for repair or replacement.

Documenting every aspect of your damage is essential so as to have proof when filing a claim. Take as many pictures and videos of the damage as possible and fill out a detailed report of everything that's damaged and everything that will likely need to be done to fix the roof. It is also vital to have before pictures of what your home looked like prior to the damage. You can also provide detailed records of regular maintenance you have done over the years to show you have been taking good care of your roof.
