Homeowners often have a lot of concerns when it comes to
hiring a roofer after a sudden storm damages their homes. After all, the roofer
will be getting their money primarily from the insurance company, so it’s
typically hard to tell whether they will be doing the work properly, or just
working on a quick fix to appease the insurer and get their (typically smaller
than average) compensation.
While some roofers might do this, it really doesn’t look
good for the company’s reputation to act in such a way. Professional roofers, like TAG General Contractors,
will do a complete roofing inspection and coordinate with you and
with your insurance company while presenting you with a complete, written
estimate that outlines all the required expenses.
If a roofer does a poor job, the roofer will not get to work
unless homeowners know they can provide top quality and be properly paid for their
services. As a result, if the insurance company is not willing to pay them
enough, they will not cut corners. Instead, they will want you and your insurer
to come to an agreement for establishing who pays for what, before any of the
work is even started.
In such cases, it’s best to have evidence of the damage that
was caused by the storm and to have a professional attorney or public adjuster
help you negotiate the right compensation specifically for the storm damage.
