FAQs
How do you help with my insurance claim after a storm in Gruetli-Laager?
Our team starts with a free, no-obligation roof inspection to document all storm-related damage. We photograph problem areas, create a detailed report, and use industry-approved estimating software (Xactimate) so the insurance carrier receives accurate pricing. We then meet the adjuster on site to advocate for any repairs or replacements your policy covers, handle all required paperwork, and keep you updated until the claim is closed and the roof is restored.
What documents or information will I need to provide for smooth insurance coordination?
Typically, we’ll ask for (1) a copy of your homeowners insurance policy or declarations page, (2) the claim number if you have already opened a claim, (3) any correspondence you have received from your carrier, and (4) photos or notes you took right after the storm. If you haven’t filed yet, we can guide you through that first call to your insurer. Having your policy deductible amount handy also speeds up the process.
How soon can you inspect my roof after severe weather in Gruetli-Laager?
During peak storm season, we set aside rapid-response slots specifically for Sequatchie and Grundy County homeowners. In most cases, we can be on your property within 24 hours of your call—often the same day—so you get documentation before temporary repairs or tree removal alter the damage evidence.
Will filing a storm-damage roof claim raise my homeowners insurance premiums?
Tennessee insurers generally treat wind and hail losses as “Acts of God,” meaning they’re not caused by homeowner negligence. While every carrier has its own underwriting rules, most do not increase premiums for a single weather-related claim. Premiums may rise region-wide after a major storm event, but that happens whether or not you file. Declining to file could leave you paying for repairs out of pocket while still seeing a rate increase.
Can you work directly with my insurance adjuster so I don’t have to be the middle-man?
Yes. Once you sign a simple authorization form, we can communicate directly with the field adjuster and desk reviewer, provide supplemental documentation, and negotiate any discrepancies in scope or pricing. You stay in the loop through our client portal but avoid endless phone calls and technical claim jargon.
What if my claim is denied or the settlement won’t cover the full repair cost?
Claim denials and lowball offers happen, but they’re not the end of the road. We’ll review the insurer’s reasoning, compare it with our inspection data, and, if warranted, request a re-inspection or file a supplemental claim complete with additional photos, code citations, and material invoices. In many cases, the carrier revises the estimate. If an impasse remains, we can refer you to licensed public adjusters or attorneys experienced in Tennessee property claims, though most disputes are resolved long before that step.
