Because we are a premier company, we go above and beyond, and this is why we believe that it is important to understand roof insurance. So many insurance companies out there make it quite difficult for their clients to understand not only what is covered under their insurance, but how to even make a claim. The first step is really to speak with us here at Houston Roofing because having a licensed roofer create an estimate of the damage will help you through the claims process.


Our Roof Insurance Claims Experience

Houston Roofing & Construction can help you to understand your homeowner’s insurance policy information. The differences between what is covered and why is of utmost importance when taking out a policy, and the deductibles that are in place can make a difference whether or not you should even file a claim in the first place. Helping our clients understand their full policy is the first step and Houston Roofing & Construction wants to make sure that you are entitled to everything that you have paid for in your homeowners insurance policies through the years, which can include roof repairs and roof replacement.


Types Of Covered Damage

Houston Roofing & Construction can easily ascertain what type of damage has caused your roof to have issues. If there was a recent hail storm or a windstorm, or if it is just wear and tear over the years. Wear and tear is typically not covered on insurance policies because it is up to the homeowner to take care of their roof and it is a large liability for an insurance company. However, there are some items that are typically covered under a homeowners insurance policy.

Roof Equipment Leaks

Sometimes, you may have a leak from a piece of roof equipment that is attached to your roof such as an air conditioner. If this leak spreads into the roof and then into your home, there is a possibility that this is covered under your policy. However, it depends on the company and the type of policy you have taken out as well as any additional adjustments you have added on through the years. There are parts of an insurance contract that have add-ons in certain states for certain items, such as earthquakes in California or hurricanes in Louisiana. Looking at certain parts of your contract can allow you to gain some insight here.

Storm Damage

Hail and wind storms happen frequently in Texas. In fact, we have had a lot of them throughout the last few years. Typically, this type of damage will be covered under your policy. However, not all insurance adjusters understand the difference in types of damage and may just assume it is wear and tear which can cause issues with your claim. Now, this is why you must have an experienced and licensed roofer with an estimate in hand when starting the claims process. When you call your insurance carrier, they will ask if you have gotten an estimate yet from a licensed roofer. That is the first step and it is one of the first questions they ask besides when you noticed the damage and what type of damage it is. Because our free roof inspection will give you all of this information, you will have this information at the ready for your insurance company.

Personal Property

Many people do not know that if there is a covered “peril”, as insurance companies call storms, that personal property can be damaged and sometimes this is also covered in the insurance claims process. This is why at Houston Roofing & Construction, we implore our clients to take a picture or video of any internal damage, but it’s also a good idea to have a walk-through video or pictures of all of your personal items, from electronics to clothing, before anything occurs so the insurance company knows exactly how much the claim will be. If there is a storm and water leaks into the house or tears the roof off, this can create a huge amount of destruction to your personal items. Personal property under your homeowners policy shows how much coverage you will have and this can differ depending on policy, state, and whether you have made any adjustments to your policy to increase or decrease this amount.


What’s Not Covered

General Wear & Tear

There are no insurance policies that will cover general wear and tear on a roof. If you have recently moved into a new home and found there was an issue with your roof because they had not kept it up over the years, you will find that this will not be covered under your policy. If you have been living there for a while and did not notice a change until recently and it is deemed “wear and tear”, that will not be covered. But, once again, this is why you want a licensed roofer to do an inspection and find out the root cause of the damage as the insurance adjuster may not know exactly what they are looking at.

Freeze

Believe it or not, freezes are sometimes not covered here in the state of Texas. We have been suffering from many freezes over the past few years and they do cause damage to roofs, plumbing, and pools. Freezing can affect your roof and the rest of your home, and remember, this can be seen as wear and tear as well and is typically not covered. The same goes for items like rodent infestation and one specifically-interesting one: not keeping your utilities on. Yes, if you are going on vacation for a year and turn everything off and take all of your items with you, your house is seen as vacant and if something happens to the roof during this time, it may not be covered.
