STORM DAMAGE REPAIR CONTRACTORS MINNEAPOLIS MN

1. Our specialists undergo special training to identify damage caused by wind or hail and will do a thorough inspection of the home or business to help you decide if there is enough damage to warrant an insurance claim.
2. If there is damage, you can call your insurance company, and they’ll set up an appointment for an insurance adjuster to come out to inspect the damage for themselves.
3. Our rep will be onsite during this appointment to offer their expert opinion on what amount of damage occurred and where on the home or business it is located.
4. If/when the adjuster agrees with the scope of the work from the damage incurred, A to Z Construction Inc. representative will call you with a report on what insurance is covering and will set up a pre-construction meeting to pick out colors, styles of new materials and go over the project in detail. During the pre-construction meeting or shortly before we deliver materials, we pick up the deposit check (ACV) value of the project. Most insurance companies pay in a “two-check” format, with the first check being the ACV (actual cash value) and the second the deprecation (released once the project is completed).
5. Once you select your colors and products, your project is turned over to be scheduled. Our Production department keeps a close eye on when work can start, and will call you about the timing, which is typically 14-21 days after the product has been selected.

Believe it or not, significant damage to your roof can be caused by even seemingly minor storms. Hail measuring one inch in diameter can result in damage capable of reducing your roof’s lifespan by up to 15 years. Small hail can cause extreme damage when paired with heavy winds. Studies show that roofs that are professionally inspected on a regular basis generally last about 50% longer than those left unchecked. Think about it this way – the sooner your roof is fixed, the less it will cost you. Procrastination can cause more damage.

A thorough inspection is absolutely crucial and necessary regardless if there is evidence of hail damage or not. Most companies require that the claim is submitted within one year of the storm date. It is always better to act immediately since most companies will not cover the cost of repairs if you experience a leak after a years time. Even more, the inspection is free – so why wait?
