How to File a Storm Damage Insurance Claim Without Getting Denied
Storms in Lake Jeanette (27455) and the greater Greensboro, NC area can wreak havoc on your roof. But getting insurance to pay up shouldn’t be a second battle. At Old Timers Roofing, Inc., we’ve walked hundreds of homeowners through this process and helped them get the coverage they deserve—without stress or surprises.
1. Schedule a Free Roof Inspection First
Before you call your insurer, have a licensed professional inspect your roof. Why? Because your adjuster may not catch every issue—and any missed damage is money lost. Our Greensboro inspection team knows what carriers look for and can document everything upfront.
2. Document the Damage Immediately
Take date-stamped photos and videos of any visible damage, including missing shingles, dents in flashing, and ceiling water spots. We’ll add professional drone footage and thermal images for the full story.
3. Understand Your Policy
Review your homeowner’s policy or call your agent to clarify your deductible, coverage limits, and exclusions. Our team helps homeowners interpret tricky language and make the right move.
4. File Promptly With the Right Info
Delays can be grounds for denial. We’ll help you submit your claim with a detailed inspection report, photos, and a certified cost estimate from our insurance claim specialists.
5. Don’t Accept the First Offer Without Review
If your insurance company lowballs you, we’ll step in with proof. Supplementation is our specialty, and we’ve helped homeowners receive 25%–40% more than their initial offer—legally and ethically.
