At Arrowhead Roofing, we specialize in handling emergency and storm damage repair and have extensive experience working with insurance companies to ensure our clients receive the compensation they deserve.

Types of Damage Covered by Insurance

Roof damage from severe weather can vary widely. Common issues include:

Frequently Asked Questions About Insurance Claims

Will I slow down my claims process by using Arrowhead Roofing? No, using a contractor that specializes in insurance claims can actually increase the efficiency of the process. Insurance companies prefer working with experts who understand their terminology and claim methods.

Can my agent help me get a better claim? Your insurance agent can ensure you’re properly covered, but the claims department operates separately. Your agent typically cannot influence the claims process.

The adjuster told me I didn’t have a claim or enough damage. What can I do? You have the right to request a re-inspection. We’ve helped thousands of clients receive proper claim payments by pointing out overlooked damage to insurance adjusters.

Do I need Arrowhead Roofing at my initial inspection? While not necessary for initial inspections, having us present for re-inspections is crucial. Our expertise can help highlight and discuss damage that adjusters might miss.

Will my insurance premium increase if I file a claim? If your area has storm damage, premiums are likely to rise regardless. Filing a legitimate claim for covered damage won’t uniquely impact your rates. We only recommend filing when damage is confirmed under your policy.

Can I use any contractor if my claim is approved? Yes, but choosing a reputable contractor like Arrowhead Roofing ensures quality work and adherence to industry standards. We complete over 400 claims annually and have a proven track record of excellence.

I received my insurance paperwork but don’t understand it. Can you help? Absolutely. We offer free insurance assistance to all clients. We’ll explain your paperwork and help you understand the claims process, including any additional funds you may be entitled to after project completion.
