Once a storm has gone through your community, it’s best to do an evaluation of your roof and inspect your home for any damage. One may call this an after-storm roof inspection. After all, the roof is one of the most valuable aspects of your home.
Now that the storm has safely passed, walk around your home and see if you have any visible damage. Storm damage can be in the form of missing shingles, leaking roof, debris through the roof and more.
If you feel your roof has been damaged, or even if you aren’t sure, contact an independent roofing company to do an inspection. Most will offer this as a free service. The professional will be able to document any damage you can’t see from the ground and provide details as to what needs to be fixed right away.
One thing you want to make sure you do when hiring a professional to inspection your roof after a storm is make sure they are local and you have asked them to come look at your home. Don’t hire the first person who knocks on your door uninvited.
The roof claims industry is a big business and hiring a professional that is familiar with your community to inspect your roof after a storm is important. If the professional finds damage, you will want to file a claim with your insurance company.
Make sure when talking with the roofing professional that they can help you with the claim before you hire them to fix your roof.
