Storm Damage

What to look for:

 

Check for missing shingles or dented gutters after a storm.

  • Look for granules in downspouts — a sign of roof wear.

  • Don’t climb up — call for a professional inspection instead.

Understanding the Insurance Claim Process

Demystify a confusing process.

  • Take photos of damage as soon as it’s safe.

  • File a claim promptly — most policies have a time limit.

  • Let your contractor meet the adjuster to ensure nothing is missed.

Choosing the Right Exterior Materials

More than meets the eye:

  • Steel siding and roofing are great for longevity and storm resistance.

  • K-style gutters handle heavy rainfall better than half-round.

  • Consider color and style — curb appeal matters!
