Step 3: You will next receive claim paperwork from your insurance company where they will send you a detailed breakdown of what is covered under the repair claim, the estimated cost of the repairs, the total claim amount along with the amount of Deductible cost.
-It is best if you allow a professional to review the claim with you in order to ensure all damaged items were covered by the insurance claim.
-It is also important that the insurance is covering costs of any upgrades that are required by building code. Insurance is required by law to cover cost of these upgrades regardless if it was done in the same way or not on the original Roof installation.
