Hailstorms may inflict considerable damage on your commercial roof, sometimes without any visible signs from the ground. Acting promptly can safeguard your property, simplify the insurance claim process, and stop minor problems from escalating into expensive repairs.
To help your teams navigate the recovery process after hail damage, Strategic Claim Consultants has prepared the checklist below to guide your next steps.
Be sure to contact our office before beginning this process.
HAVE YOU RECEIVED A PROFESSIONAL ROOF INSPECTION?
- Schedule a professional roof inspection.
- Have a reputable roofing company identify damage that may not be visible from the ground.
- Determine whether the damage warrants contacting your insurance carrier.
DID YOU DOCUMENT ALL THE DAMAGE?
- Have a roofer document all damage — proper documentation is critical when dealing with insurance claims.
- Take detailed photos and videos to check the extent of hail damage.
- Determine if a full replacement is needed or just temporary repairs.
HAVE YOU HIRED A CONTRACTOR?
- Sign a contract with a trusted roofing contractor.
DID YOU FILE AN INSURANCE CLAIM?
- Notify your insurance carrier that your property may have sustained hail damage.
- Inform your insurance carrier that you have hired a roofing contractor. If not, work with a carrier to get an inspector.
