After your home has been hit by a storm, it’s important to contact your home insurance agent as soon as possible to file a claim. This will allow you to make any necessary storm damage repairs and avoid developing problematic issues such as a leaking roof or mold in your attic. The roofing and siding contractors at Bulldog Contractors are top-rated insurance recovery professionals and will make the insurance claim process easy to understand.

Here’s the storm damage repair insurance process in five simple steps:

• Assess The Damage: The first thing you should do when preparing for your storm damage restoration claim is note the day the damage occurred and all the visible issues it caused. Follow up by taking pictures of the destruction.
• Collect At Least 3 Written Proposals: Contact several of your local storm damage restoration contractors to get different proposals. The contractors should perform a full property inspection.
• Read Over Your Insurance Policy: Carefully look over your home’s insurance policy, and then contact the claims department directly with your damage information and chosen contractor estimation.
• Set Up An Insurance Adjuster Inspection: Schedule an inspection with your insurance adjuster and plan to have your contractor present. Your contractor will make sure the adjuster gives you a fair assessment and will help you prevent your claim from being denied. Usually, even the smallest amount of damage will result in approval as long as you get your claim in on time.
• Use Funds To Cover Materials & Repairs: Once your claim is approved, your insurance agency should send you two different payments. The first will be used by your contractor to pay for your materials, and after a city inspection is performed, the second payment will be used to pay your contractors.
