How to Get what You Need from Insurance After your Roof is Damaged

In the aftermath of a storm, you may discover that your roof was damaged.  In this case, you will have to call your insurance company and start your claim process.

You will have to look for damage right away and assess the condition of the roof, but not by yourself: the best way to do this is to get in touch with licensed Orlando roofers, which will identify the damage and file a report that you can use in your claim process.

Allowing your roof to be inspected by a professional roofer besides the insurance company's adjuster will maximize your chances to get proper compensation, not to mention that some roofers may also be willing to act as your advocates, filing the claim, collecting relevant information and negotiating with your insurer. Not all roofers offer this assistance, but it does not mean that they do not do good evaluation work; it is simply not their area of expertise and it is common sense to admit it.

Alternatively, you can also contact a public adjuster, especially if your insurance company denies your claim.  A public adjuster will represent your best interest and get maximum compensation for you.
