Roof Insurance Claim Guide After Storm Damage

Why Insurance Claims Can Be Stressful

Storm damage is already overwhelming—navigating insurance on top of that can feel daunting. The good news: most policies cover hail and wind damage. With the right steps, you can make the process smoother and avoid costly mistakes.

Step 1 – Assess and Document the Damage

Take clear photos of missing shingles, dents, broken gutters, or leaks. Be thorough, capturing both outdoor and indoor evidence.

Step 2 – Review Your Insurance Policy

Policies differ. Some cover full replacement, while others only partial repair. Knowing your coverage details helps avoid surprises.

Step 3 – Call a Professional Roofing Contractor

An inspection from a trusted roofer strengthens your claim. Green Star Home provides detailed inspection reports that insurers rely on.

Step 4 – File Your Claim Promptly

Submit your documentation and contractor report to your insurance company. Delays can weaken your case and push out repairs.

Step 5 – Meet with the Insurance Adjuster

Your insurer will send an adjuster to confirm damage. Having your contractor present ensures nothing is overlooked.

Step 6 – Complete Your Roof Repair or Replacement

Once approved, choose a contractor experienced in insurance work. At Green Star Home, we work directly with insurers to make sure your roof is restored without unnecessary delays.
