🚨 After the Storm: What You Need to Know Before Filing a Claim
We just experienced a major hail storm, and we know many homes may have damage. Before you take the next step, here are a few important tips to protect yourself:
🔎 1. Get a Professional Inspection
Have a reputable LOCAL roofing company inspect your roof first. They understand our area, weather patterns, and will be here if you need them later.
⚠️ 2. Be careful with out-of-town contractors. Often they will show up after storms. Always verify they are properly licensed, insured, and able to pull permits locally before agreeing to any work.
📄 3. Talk to Your Agent FIRST
Before filing a claim, reach out to your insurance agent (that’s what we’re here for!). We’ll help you understand:
• Your deductible
• Whether the damage may exceed it
• How a claim could impact your policy
🤝 We’re here to guide you every step of the way and make sure you make the best decision for your home and your coverage.
Stay safe, everyone
