Posted filed under Hail Damage Roof.

Hail damage is a common problem in Kansas City, and it can cause a lot of damage to your roof. If you have hail damage, you may be able to file an insurance claim. Here are some things you need to know about filing an insurance claim for hail damage:

  1. Contact Larry Vaught Roofing. Before filing a claim, you will want our honest opinion so you will know if you have hail damage. If you do not have damage, your insurance rates will still go up for filing a claim, even if you do not get paid.
  2. Contact your insurance company. As soon as possible after you confirm your roof has sustained hail damage, contact your insurance company. They will assess the damage and help you file a claim.
  3. Prepare your claim. When you file your claim, you will need to provide your insurance company with information about the damage, including the date and time of the hailstorm, the extent of the damage, and the cost of repairs.
  4. Submit your claim. Once you have prepared your claim, you can submit it to your insurance company. They will then review your claim and decide whether to approve it.

If your insurance company approves your claim, they will pay for the cost of repairs. However, if they deny your claim, you will be responsible for paying for the roof repairs yourself.

Here are some tips for filing an insurance claim for hail damage:

  • Take photos of the damage. Take photos of the damage to your roof as soon as possible after you discover it. These photos will help your insurance company assess the damage.
  • Get estimates for repairs. Get estimates for the cost of repairs from several different roofing contractors. This will help you determine how much money you will need to claim from your insurance company.
  • Be prepared for a deductible. Most insurance policies have a deductible, which is the amount of money you will have to pay out of pocket before your insurance company will start to pay for repairs.
  • Be patient. The claims process can take some time, so be patient and wait for your insurance company to approve your claim.

If you have any questions about filing an insurance claim for hail damage, you should contact your insurance company or Larry L. Vaught Roofing, Inc.
