After a severe storm, discovering damage to your roof can feel overwhelming. Along with protecting your home, you may also need to file a claim with your homeowners insurance provider. While every insurance policy is different, understanding the general claims process—and knowing how your roofing contractor can assist—can make the experience much less stressful.
At AGR Roofing & Construction, we don’t make insurance decisions or process claims. What we do provide is a thorough roof inspection, detailed documentation of storm-related damage, and professional roofing services to help restore your home once your claim moves forward.
The first step after a hailstorm or high-wind event is determining whether your roof has sustained damage.
A professional inspection can identify issues such as:
Some storm damage isn’t visible from the ground, making a professional evaluation one of the most important steps in the process.
If storm damage is found, your roofing contractor can document the condition of your roof through photographs, inspection findings, and notes about the affected areas.
This documentation can help you better understand the scope of the damage and provide useful information when communicating with your insurance company.
Accurate documentation is especially valuable when damage involves multiple exterior components, such as:
Once you’ve reviewed the inspection findings, you’ll contact your homeowners insurance company to report the damage and begin the claims process.
Your insurance provider will explain:
Because every policy is different, your insurance company is the best source for questions about coverage and claim approval.
In many cases, the insurance company will schedule an adjuster to inspect your property.
If requested, your roofing contractor may be available to meet with the adjuster to help point out documented storm damage and answer questions about the condition of the roof. This helps ensure the inspection includes all visible areas of concern, but the insurance company ultimately determines claim coverage and approval.
Once your insurance claim has been approved—or if you’re moving forward with repairs outside of an insurance claim—you can schedule your roofing project.
Depending on your home’s needs, AGR Roofing & Construction can provide services including:
Our team focuses on quality workmanship and clear communication throughout the project so you know what to expect from start to finish.
Even if your roof isn’t actively leaking, delaying an inspection after a storm can allow hidden damage to worsen over time.
Prompt inspections can help:
The sooner damage is identified, the sooner you can begin planning the next steps for protecting your home.
Storm damage can leave homeowners with a lot of questions, but you don’t have to navigate the roofing portion of the process alone. AGR Roofing & Construction proudly serves homeowners throughout Omaha, Lincoln, Council Bluffs, Bellevue, Papillion, La Vista, Gretna, Elkhorn, and nearby communities with professional roof inspections, repairs, replacements, and exterior restoration services.
If your home has recently been affected by hail or high winds, contact AGR Roofing & Construction to schedule a professional roof inspection and receive an honest assessment of your roofing system.
