Dealing with roofing damage is stressful enough, but when you add the complexity of filing an insurance claim, it can feel overwhelming. At Southern Shingles, we understand how confusing the process can be and are here to help homeowners in Upstate South Carolina navigate it. Our experienced team can handle the claim process from start to finish, ensuring you get the coverage you deserve for your roofing repairs or replacement.
Here’s how Southern Shingles can make your insurance claim experience smoother and more successful:
Comprehensive Roof Inspection
The first step to filing a claim is understanding the extent of the damage. Our experts will conduct a thorough roof inspection, checking not just shingles but all areas prone to hail damage, such as soft metal trims, metal roof vents, garage doors, fascia metals, gutters, downspouts, gutter guards, copper and window screens. It’s not just about having damaged shingles — insurance companies look for collateral damage to these areas as proof of a hailstorm.
To strengthen your claim, we provide hail data maps showing the latest hail dates, hail size, and exactly what size hail hit your roof. This documentation is critical in getting your claim approved. For example, hail larger than 0.75” in diameter is often required to validate damage, and the hail size reported in your area must align with the damage found on your roof. Without this data, insurance companies may deny your claim, saying the damage was from an older, uncovered storm.
Expert Guidance on Insurance Policies
Insurance policies can be complex, and understanding what your coverage includes can be tricky. Our team is well-versed in insurance claim procedures and can help explain your policy’s fine print so you know exactly what to expect. Whether it’s storm damage, leaks, or wind damage, we’ll ensure you’re aware of the coverage you’re entitled to under your policy.
Assistance with Filing Your Claim
The paperwork and details required for filing a claim can be daunting. We streamline the process by helping you gather and submit all the necessary documents, including detailed photos and descriptions of the damage. Our team also communicates directly with your insurance adjuster to ensure they have accurate information about your roof’s condition and repair needs.
Professional Representation During Adjuster Meetings
When an insurance adjuster visits your property to evaluate the damage, it’s important to have someone on your side who knows the roofing industry. Southern Shingles will be there to represent your best interests during the inspection, making sure the adjuster sees all the issues that require attention and advocating for the necessary repairs or replacements.
No Out-of-Pocket Payments for Customers
One of the unique services we offer is ensuring that our customers never have to come out of pocket for the initial repair costs. When dealing with an insurance claim, most roofers expect the homeowner to pay the remaining 50% of the repair cost once the work is completed, even if the insurance company hasn’t released the final payment. At Southern Shingles, we get paid after you receive the final check from your insurance company.
