We all know how stressful it is to get your home repaired after an intense storm.
Dealing with a leaky roof is already a lot to deal with after a storm, but now you need to figure out everything with your insurance company.
Most people call their insurance right away after storm damage has been done to their roofs, but here at ProCraft Exteriors, we have been in the roofing industry for over 17 years, and we have witnessed plenty of times first-hand that you should call a trusted roofer before your insurance.
In this blog, we will discuss exactly why you should contact a roofer first, and when you have finished reading, you will completely understand why it would be so much better not to call insurance first.
Roofers Are Experienced
Unlike insurance adjusters who are experts in, well, insurance, we are experts in roofs. We know what specific damage you have and how much it should cost to fix it.
We will look for more than just small damages that insurance adjusters were trained to look for.
Also, most roofers have already had years of experience working with insurance companies.
Roofers Will Advocate For You
The #1 priority for any roofer is to be an advocate for you. We will always give you an honest and professional inspection of your home and stand up for you if your insurance doesn’t want to give you a certain amount of money to repair your home.
Your Roof Repair Doesn’t Have To Be A Pain
Easily the most important reason why you should call a roofer before your insurance is that if you call us first, it will be significantly less work for you!
After we give our expert assessment and price estimate for fixing your home, we as the roofing company can do all of the nitty-gritty paperwork and communicate with your insurance company.
Believe us when we say if you call us first you will have to deal with a lot fewer headaches and stress.
Important Note
It is worth noting that not every roofing company has experience working with insurance companies. That is not inherently a bad thing and it doesn’t make them bad, but if you don’t want to deal with the annoyance of being in contact with your insurance company after some roof damage, it is best to work with a roofing company that specializes in doing so.
