🚨🌬️With the strong winds moving through the area, we know many homeowners are checking their roofs, siding, and property for damage. Before filing an insurance claim, it’s very important to know what your wind and hail deductible is.
Many homeowners are surprised to learn that wind and hail deductibles are often higher than standard deductibles, and in many cases are based on a percentage of the home’s insured value, not a flat dollar amount.
Filing a claim when the damage is less than your deductible will not result in a payout, but it can still show up on your insurance record. That’s why it’s always best to understand your coverage first.
