Step One: Locating hail damage at your home can begin with a search around the outside of your home for noticeable damage. Look for things such as recently damaged paint or dents in the exterior siding. If you’re able to safely access your roof, try to find missing shingles or shingles with blisters or dings and dents. Also, look for dings and dents within your rain gutters and downspouts.

Step Two: Check in your home for noticeable damage. New water stains on the ceiling or running down your walls is a concern that should be quickly dealt with! If you do not repair a roof leak in a timely fashion you might end up having to totally replace your roof, along with major repairs caused by water leaking in your home.

Step Three: Speak to your insurance agent immediately and make sure they are aware of the damage. They’ll likely have one of their adjusters out to assess your home and prepare a cost estimate for the repairs.

Step Four: Speak to Harris for an independent evaluation. Even though you trust your insurer and their adjuster, it is best to get a second opinion from a roofing contractor you have confidence in. Because we do not work with the insurance company they should be less biased with our evaluation.

Step Five: Have everything in writing. The roofing contractor you choose to hire ought to provide you with a contract detailing the work to be carried out and what it will cost you. You insurance company also needs to provide you with paperwork about the specifics of your claim. Cover yourself by getting as much as you need to feel comfortable in writing.
