FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why do I need help filing a claim?

This is a good question: If you plan on mounting your roof with the inspectors and know insurance jargon as well as the full terms of your homeowners policy and what your entitled, you may not need help! However for most people, it’s simply a good idea to hire someone who knows what your insurance company is looking for as well as what you’re entitled. In many cases, your insurance company is not the one inspecting your property. They hire a 3rd party inspector to perform their inspections, take pictures and give their opinions! We are your advocate on your roof making sure nothing goes unaccounted for and that all areas are properly photographed. Your insurance company doesn’t always want to pay 10k-15k for your new roof and needs to hear why this justified. This is the value we bring.

How long do I have to file a claim against storm damage?

Homeowners have 2 years from the date of the storm to file a claim for any/all damages relating to storms.

How long does the insurance claim process typically take?

It depends. In short, from inspection to installation and cleanup typically take 3-5 weeks. Insurance providers and weather are the 2 big factors of time.

When all the work is done, who does the insurance company send the final check to?

All checks are sent to the Homeowner, unless they authorize the check be addressed and sent directly to Empire K Roofing Solutions.
