FAQ's on Storm Damage Restoration and Insurance Claims

1) What should I do first after my home sustains storm damage?
After a storm, make sure you’re safe. Take photos or videos of the damage, document everything, and contact Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights for an immediate inspection and emergency tarping. Then, call your insurance company to file a claim.

2) Does my homeowners insurance cover storm damage to my roof?
Most policies cover wind, hail, and storm-related damage. Coverage can vary based on your policy’s specifics. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights can help you understand your coverage and assist with the claims process.

3) How do I know if my roof has storm damage?
Visible damage like missing shingles, dented gutters, or water leaks inside the home can be signs. However, some damage, such as hail impact or wind-lifted shingles, may not be immediately visible. Pinnacle Roofing offers a free storm damage inspection to evaluate your roof.

4) Will filing a storm damage claim increase my insurance premium?
Filing a claim for storm-related damage (e.g., wind, hail, or fallen trees) typically won’t raise your premium since it’s not due to homeowner negligence. However, every insurance company handles this differently, so it’s best to check with your insurer.

5) How does the storm damage insurance claim process work?
Once you file a claim, the insurance company will send an adjuster to inspect the damage. We will work directly with the adjuster to ensure your damage is properly documented and covered. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights will handle everything, from the initial inspection to final repairs.

6) What’s the difference between an ACV and RCV claim for storm damage?
ACV (Actual Cash Value) pays for the depreciated value of the roof or damaged property. RCV (Replacement Cost Value) pays the full cost of replacing the roof with no depreciation. We’ll explain the difference and help you understand your policy when you file a claim.

7) Do I need to wait for the insurance adjuster before making temporary repairs?
No. You can make temporary repairs, such as tarping the roof or boarding up windows, to prevent further damage. Keep receipts for any materials you purchase as part of your claim process.

8) How long does it take to process a storm damage insurance claim?
Claim processing time can vary depending on the severity of the damage, your insurer’s timeline, and the availability of adjusters. On average, the process can take 2–4 weeks, but we’ll guide you and keep you updated every step of the way.

9) Can I choose my contractor for storm damage repairs?
Yes, you have the right to choose your contractor. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights works with all major insurance carriers and will handle the entire claims process, including supplemental claims and inspections, ensuring your repairs are covered.

10) How do I know if the storm damage claim estimate from my insurance company is accurate?
Insurance estimates can sometimes be too low. We’ll help you review your adjuster’s estimate and, if necessary, submit a supplement with detailed documentation, photos, and code requirements to ensure everything is covered.

11) What if my insurance estimate doesn’t cover all the damage?
If the initial estimate is incomplete or inaccurate, we will submit a supplemental claim to your insurance company. We provide detailed reports, photos, and measurements to show the full scope of the damage.

12) Are roofing and siding damage included in my storm damage claim?
Yes, roofing and siding can both be covered under your storm damage claim if the damage was caused by a covered event, such as hail or high winds. We will work with your insurance company to ensure your roof, siding, and other affected areas are included.

13) What should I do if my storm damage causes water leaks inside my home?
First, try to contain the water to prevent further damage by using buckets, towels, or plastic sheeting. Then, contact Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights to assess the damage and get emergency repairs done quickly. We will help coordinate repairs with your insurance company.

14) Can I upgrade my roof during a storm damage insurance claim?
Yes, you can upgrade materials (e.g., to impact-resistant shingles or a metal roof) during your claim. Insurance will cover the cost to replace your roof to its pre-damage condition, but you’ll be responsible for paying the difference for any upgrades.

15) Are code upgrades included in my storm damage claim?
Code upgrades (such as ice and water shield, ventilation improvements, or additional flashing) are typically not included unless your insurance policy has Ordinance or Law coverage. We will identify and present any required code upgrades to ensure compliance.

16) How do I file a storm damage insurance claim in Rhode Island?
To file a claim in Rhode Island, contact your insurance company and report the damage. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylightscan assist with the paperwork, provide an inspection, and guide you through the claims process step-by-step to ensure a smooth experience.

17) What happens if I don’t file my storm damage claim right away?
Delaying your claim can lead to complications. Insurance policies often have time limits, usually 30–60 days after the storm, to file a claim. Prompt reporting ensures better coverage and faster repairs.

18) Does storm damage insurance cover gutters, windows, and skylights?
If the storm causes direct damage to gutters, windows, or skylights (e.g., from hail or falling debris), they are typically covered. We will assess the damage and work with your insurance company to include these items in the claim.

19) How much will my storm damage repairs cost after my deductible?
Your repair cost will depend on your insurance deductible and the damage extent. After the deductible, your insurer covers the remaining cost. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights will ensure that the repairs are done professionally, and we will guide you through any payment options or financing available.
