If you’re considering an insurance claim, documentation and timelines matter. This guide covers the basics without the fluff.
Before you file
- Take photos of visible damage and any interior staining.
- Find the date of the storm event if possible.
- Schedule an inspection so you understand scope first.
Common mistakes
- Waiting too long and losing the storm timeline.
- Repairing first without documentation.
- Assuming “no missing shingles” means “no damage.”
