First Steps

What To Do Right Now

You are dealing with a lot. These steps protect your safety and your claim.

  1. Stay safe. Stay clear of damaged structures and downed power lines.

  2. Photograph the damage. Take photos and video of the exterior and any interior water, where it is safe.

  3. Limit further damage. Cover openings or tarp the roof if you can do it safely, and keep the receipts.

  4. Report the loss. Tell your insurer and write down your claim number.

  5. Check your deductible. Look at your policy for a separate wind or storm deductible.

  6. Call us before you accept an offer. A free claim review takes about two minutes to start, and there is no cost to review your claim.

Good To Know

Wind Claim Questions

Does My Policy Cover Wind Damage?

Most homeowner policies cover wind damage, but coverage details and deductibles vary. We read yours with you.

What If Only Part Of My Roof Was Damaged?

We document the full extent, including whether repairs can be made to match the rest of the roof.

Can Wind Damage Cause Leaks Later?

Yes. Openings created by wind can let water in days later. Document and report new damage promptly.

Can I Hire You If My Claim Is Already Open?

Often, yes. Bring your policy, your claim file, and any carrier letters, and we will review where things stand.

How Long Does A Wind Damage Claim Take?

It depends on the size of the loss and how the insurer responds. We explain the likely timeline in your free claim review.
