Navigating a Hail Claim for Montgomery County Roofing Damage

    LANSDALE, PA, May 01, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Spring brings much to be grateful for. Hail storms are not on that list.

When inspecting their homes after a storm, most homeowners find the obvious damage to fences and siding, but identifying damage to the roof takes more training. Shingles are manufactured to take a beating from bad weather and still function properly. Inspecting a roof closely is the only way to know if it has hail damage and most homeowners are uncomfortable doing this.

Licensed contractors are a good choice for homeowners if they need to identify hail damage. They have the equipment and knowledge necessary to spot hail damage. As a Southampton roofing contractor, Heller's Building and Remodeling, is experienced in assisting homeowners with hail damage assessments. The owner, Ed Heller, said, "Start by requesting a free inspection. Our professional roofing experts know how to differentiate between normal wear and hail damage."

Homeowner's insurance may cover damage related to spring hail storms. Variables include the deductible, policy type and amount of damage. Filing a claim is always the homeowner's decision. Once that is done, the process can be helped with the experience of a Lansdale siding and roofing contractor.

The claims process varies with each company. It usually involves a thorough inspection of the home. Commonly, a homeowner will choose to have their contractor come to the inspection appointment to ensure no damage is overlooked.

After the inspection, an adjuster will return to their office to complete the claim paperwork, letting the homeowner know via letter how their claim has been resolved. Once the claim is settled, it is time for the homeowner to choose their contractor.

When a homeowner is replacing any major part of their home, it is also a good opportunity for them to consider other home improvements. It can lessen the long-term interruption if the kitchen remodeling project can be added onto other repairs potentially covered by an insurance claim.
