Storm Damage and Insurance Restoration in Richmond, KY
Storm damage assessment, emergency tarping, and documentation to support your insurance claim from first photo to finished repair.
The hours after a storm are when the most useful evidence gets lost. Tarps go up, debris gets cleared off the yard, and the exact damage an adjuster needs to see gets cleaned away with it. Our first step after a call is to get the roof tarped or the openings boarded up to stop further damage, then we do a full inspection and document hail bruising, lifted shingles, and dented gutters or vents before anything else changes.
Hail damage in particular is easy to miss from the ground. It often shows up as small bruises in the shingle mat or as dents in the soft metal around the roof, vents, gutters, flashing, long before it shows as an actual leak. If repairs happen too fast without documentation, or if nothing gets done at all for weeks, either way makes the claim harder to support later, and secondary damage like water intrusion can start showing up in the meantime.
We document with photos and written notes, prepare an estimate an adjuster can work from, and meet on site during the adjuster's inspection to walk the damage together. The final decision on the claim always belongs to the insurance company, our part is making sure the damage is documented accurately and the repair scope reflects what actually happened to the roof.

Storm Damage and Insurance Restoration questions.
How do I know if my roof has hail damage?
From the ground it is genuinely hard to tell. Up close, hail leaves bruises in the shingle mat and dents in soft metal like vents, gutters, and flashing, even when the shingles themselves look fine from the driveway.
Do you work directly with my insurance adjuster?
Yes, we can meet the adjuster on site, walk the damage together, and provide our documentation and estimate. The final decision on the claim is always up to your insurance company.
What should I do first after a storm?
Get any active leaks or openings covered to stop further damage, and try to document what you can safely see before cleaning anything up. Call before you make any permanent repairs so the damage does not get erased before it is documented.
Will filing a claim raise my insurance rates?
That is a question for your insurance agent, since it depends on your policy and history. We focus on documenting the damage and completing the repair once the claim moves forward.
