When you suffer storm damage to your roof in San Antonio, Texas, or Destin, Florida, you will be thankful to have insurance that can help cover the cost of the repairs. Making a fast call to your insurance company is always the best approach. However, soon after making that call, you will want to reach out to the experts at Weather to ensure our team can arrive quickly and take any necessary immediate action to help protect the structure and contents of the building. However, the call you make after speaking to your trusted friends at Weather is to a public adjuster who specializes in roofing claims. The person you hire to help you process your roof repair insurance claim could be the most valuable investment you make, other than having the expert team at Weather complete the actual work for you.
How A Pubic Adjuster Helps With Roof Repair Insurance Claims
Think of your public adjuster as your personal advocate who will ensure your storm damage roof repairs are completed perfectly and that your insurance provider does their job in paying for the necessary roof repairs. Many business owners believe that all they need to do is have an insurance adjuster inspect the roof for storm damage to assess the extent of the damage and provide the necessary information to the insurance company, which will then approve a roof repair estimate from Weather. However, that is not always true.
Be very aware of the job of an insurance company. They are in business to make money, just like every other business. The company generates revenue by collecting a larger amount of insurance premiums than it pays out in claims. So the adjustors are tasked with keeping claims as cost-effective as possible. In contrast, your public adjuster is working to ensure that your insurance claim fully covers your storm damage roof repair.
Additionally, your public adjuster has vast knowledge of not only the insurance industry and how to interpret your policy and coverage, but also a keen understanding of the roofing repair practices used in your region and the proper way to repair damage similar to what your structure sustained. Finally, much like hiring an attorney to handle a legal matter, your public adjuster will be the person who negotiates the proper resolution of the insurance claim payout from your insurance company to allow Weather to provide the best repair and restoration of the roof’s integrity and protect your property.
The Complexities Of Storm Damage And Roof Repairs
As a property owner, you understand that your commercial roof protects a vital resource, allowing you and likely many others to earn a living and support their loved ones. However, you may not understand how damage to a tile roof differs from storm damage to a shingle roof. You may also not know that the proper process for repairing a damaged TPO roof could be as simple as a patch, rather than a complete roof replacement. However, your public adjuster will be familiar with all this information and its application in various locations, such as Murray, Kentucky, or Batesville, Arkansas. But all you need to know about hiring a public adjuster is that the team at Weather understands this wise choice and is always happy to work with anyone you hire to ensure you get the proper insurance claim settlement to provide proper roof repairs after your facility suffered storm damage.
