Tip: Knowing What To Expect On A Roof Insurance Claim Helps

Knowing the process before you file ensures a higher level of a successful claim and ensures you don’t get denied.

Step 1: Pre-Claim Damage Inspection

Before You File An Roof Insurance Claim!

If you’re not confident you have actual storm damage, don’t file a roof damage claim with your insurance carrier until you’ve had a thorough roof inspection and have consulted with a licensed roofing professional to ensure the amount of damage sustained to your roof would be eligible for repair or replacement. What appears to be roof damage from the ground level could often be age or wear that your policy may not cover.

During your initial inspection, ensure your contractor thoroughly documents all damage with photos and provides an inspection report. This will save time and reduce the likelihood of having multiple reviews to ensure your carrier extends coverage. When selecting a roofing contractor, ask how many insurance claims they typically work with annually to ensure they have experience handling a claim.

Five Points Roofing will thoroughly document your loss and take extensive pictures from the ground, in the air with a drone (we’re FAA-licensed pilots), and on your roof. You and your carrier will need these photos and a damage report to expedite the claims process. Once we complete our inspection, and if it’s determined that a claim should be filed, we’ll let you know to proceed to the next step in the roof damage claims process.

Tip: Confident you have damage (Missing shingles, leaks)?

If you’re 100% confident you have significant damage, it’s okay to go ahead and file a claim to get the ball rolling faster, but just make sure you have an inspection scheduled with your roofer first as your roofer will need to be on-site with the insurance adjuster.

Step 2: File A Roof Damage Claim With Your Insurance Carrier

Filing A Roof Insurance Claim

After roof damage has been confirmed, the next step is to file your claim directly with your insurance carrier. You can do this either online, by calling your carrier’s general customer service number, or by contacting your agent. Download this Insurance Claim Checklist for more information.

You’ll likely be asked a few essential questions that you should be prepared for:

  • What is damaged?
  • When did you notice the damage?
  • What date did the damage occur? (Your contractor will provide a date of loss)
  • What is the dollar value of the damage? (Get an estimate from your contractor)
  • Do you have any photos or other documentation of the damage?

After providing the relevant information to your carrier, they will schedule a field adjuster to come to your property to inspect the reported damages. We’ll discuss this inspection appointment in the next step.

We Work With All Insurance Carriers

Step 3: Insurance Carrier Adjuster Inspection

Adjuster Meeting & Inspection

After your claim has been successfully filed, your carrier will schedule a time for their field adjuster to visit your property and inspect all damages reported in your claim. It would help if you had the qualified contractor of your choice on-site for this inspection. Some carriers will suggest a contractor for you or even tell you that you must use their approved contractor to repair the damages. While this sounds harmless, most states give homeowners legal rights to select contractors for insurance claim-based repairs.

While most insurance carriers have good intentions, sometimes due to an adjuster’s ignorance or ill will (due to illegal monetary kickbacks) will occasionally play a part. Due to the nature of an insurance claim, it’s always the best choice to hire your own contractor after doing research and due diligence on reputable companies in your area. One of the best things you can do is read online reviews of the contractor you’re thinking of hiring.

Important:

Make sure your contractor is on-site for the insurance adjuster’s inspection. Insurance adjusters are not contractors, and many don’t understand the local code requirements, building standards, and materials required to repair a roof back to its pre-loss condition. By having your contractor on-site, they will be able to explain the repair methods required so that your adjuster can write an appropriate repair or replacement estimate.

Tip: Ensure A Roofing Inspector Is On-Site For The Adjuster Inspection

Five Points Roofing inspectors are on-site for every adjuster meeting. We’re here to advocate for you and ensure your roof is repaired correctly and uses the same or better materials than initially installed. While many adjusters are competent in roofing techniques, make sure you don’t get short-changed by an inexperienced adjuster that doesn’t understand basic construction concepts.

I would not recommend working with them! You could not imagine the headaches we endured...they did so many homes in our neighborhood and we thought the process would be smooth for us like it had been for our neighbors, and we were very shocked that the service we received was so terrible!!I wish I could give a 5 star review....highly suggest to look elsewhere for your roofing needs :(

Very pleased at Five Point Roofing’s overall customer engagement and quality of work. Zillon was especially great. He was very communicative and made sure to look out for my interests as a customer. With all of the shoddy contracting experiences out there, Zillon and Five Points roofing are one of the good ones. Highly recommend.

Five Points Roofing & specifically, our point person Alex Hostetler, were absolutely amazing. Alex worked tirelessly with my stubborn insurance company to get the highest amount of compensation for our roof & gutter replacement possible. He guided us through every step of the insurance process. Even the crew that came out was precise, professional and fast, while doing quality work. The crew lead was Jorge Rodriguez, who was very communicative, always providing updates and advance notice on the crew timelines. He was exceptional. The workers were amazing and super respectful of our home, while protecting its value and our beautiful Sturbridge Pointe neighborhood. I was so impressed that we hired them to replace our roof at my office @ TalkDr Christian Counseling @ 1337 W. Main St. in Franklin. I highly recommend Five Points Roofing for all of your roofing and gutter needs.Dr. Michael Walsh & Michelle Nicole Gannon

5 stars from top to bottom for 5 Points Roofing. Darci followed up with my call very professionally and promptly - and had scheduled Matt for a new roof estimate the next day. Matt was extremely communicative and couldn’t have asked for a better job done, extra thanks to him. I would recommend this company to anyone and will definitely be using them when it does come time to replace our roof. Thank you!

So easy to work with! I had no idea what to expect and they were amazing. Alex and Mike got it all done - explained everything, one day install, in person follow up to make sure things were cleaned up inside and out, etc. They even dealt with the insurance company. Highly recommend this team.

We used Five Points twice about a decade ago and had a good experience at a previous house. When it came time to put a new roof on a different home we called them without hesitation. The whole process was smooth and professional. I talked with Jorge initially and he was a great representative for the company. Alex was helpful with everything from the initial inspection and planning, all the way to wrapping up the insurance details. Zillon ran the installation process and it was just as smooth. Everyone I spoke with at the office by phone was also professional and friendly. We had another great experience and will gladly use them again for our next property.

I'd been battling my insurance company for months, trying to get all the windstorm damage covered, when I contacted 5 Points. Their representative, Darcy Irelan, took over and within two weeks, all damage was covered and paid for. The roofers arrived and tore off the damaged roof and replaced it by the afternoon. By the end of the day, the roof was on and every bit of torn off material was disposed of. Truly, 5 Points is the best company, of any kind, that I've ever worked with. And I'm no spring chicken. Every employee I talked with was friendly and competent. And I'd especially like to thank Darcy Irelan, who was a joy to work with. Five stars for 5 Points Roofing.

Five Points Roofing replaced our roof in the summer of 2023 on two of the hottest days of the year. Despite the extremely challenging working conditions, I thought their crew was professional and hard-working. The roof looks good and everything seems fine so far. Caleb did a good job working with our insurance rep to explain why we needed a roof replacement and Wyatt provided strong on-site project management. I have a number of tender plants around the house and was worried they might get crushed or trampled, but the crew was careful to direct debris away from the foundation in a way that protected our landscaping.

Five Points did a fantastic job on my roof. Gave me a time frame on the project and then moved the date up much faster than expected. The project manager Wyatt arrived early on the day of and was on hand until completion to make sure everything was done correctly. His team worked extremely fast and did a great job prepping to protect my property and post-install clean up. My Five Points Rep. Calob kept me well informed, and made sure I was satisfied from start to finish. A super nice guy!Thank you!

Five Points Roofing did a wonderful job on my roof. The crew arrived early that morning and finished in one day which was a relief since I work from home 50% of the time.With the recent storms - I was concerned about damage to my new roof- they were able to come do an Inspection and showed up the next morning to fix the recent damage.I had one issue with the insurance claim. When I was able to speak with Matt Parks he was able to help navigate through the claim so I would receive the depreciation value of the unpaid claim.

Five Points Roofing did an amazing job on my new roof and skylights! They replaced my entire roof in just one day. They took care of everything for me, and made the whole experience effortlessly on my part. They even worked with my insurance company to get me new skylights since the old ones were damaged and no longer available. The final result looks fantastic! It looks like a brand new house! They installed high quality, great looking shingles and brand new skylights! Doug and Zillon did a fantastic job. You can tell by the workmanship, and top-notch materials they use, that the entire team at Five Points Roofing clearly takes pride in their work. I'm extremely satisfied and have already recommended Five Points Roofing to friends, family members and colleagues.

I am delighted to share my exceptional experience with 5 Points Roofing, who recently completed the replacement of my roof. From the initial discussions until the completion of the project, I was thoroughly impressed with the level of professionalism, attention to detail, competitive pricing, and timely execution displayed by their team.Throughout the process, I had the pleasure of working closely with Darcy Irelan, who efficiently coordinated with my insurance company and presented me with a comprehensive proposal. Additionally, Mike Cates expertly managed the installation team, ensuring a smooth and efficient roofing process. Their combined efforts were nothing short of excellent.I wholeheartedly recommend 5 Points Roofing to anyone in need of roof replacement services. Their commitment to delivering outstanding results is evident in the quality of their work. I should note that my recommendation is solely based on the remarkable job they did, and not influenced by any referral discounts or promotional activities offered by competitors. In fact, after comparing prices with my neighbors, who engaged other roofing companies that provide such promotions, I found 5 Points' pricing to be competitive, if not lower.I extend my sincere gratitude to the entire 5 Points team for their stellar efforts and commendable service. It was a pleasure to work with them, and I am more than satisfied with the final outcome.

Five Points replaced our wind damaged roof in July 2023. Alex Hostetler was our POC. He provided a quick and detailed estimate and handled our questions professionally throughout the process. The install team was led by Jorge. He managed the work effectively and efficiently and a was a pleasure to deal with. The roof went on without a hitch. The area was cleaned up thoroughly, and the roof looks great. This was a job WELL DONE. RLR

We contacted Five Points after a recent hail storm. They inspected our roof and identified damage spots and helped us communicate effectively with our insurance company. We ended up needing a total replacement and went with Five Points. They were awesome from start to finish. The communication was prompt, responsive, and professional and the work they completed was high quality. To put it plainly- everyone we worked with did what they said they would do, when they said they would do it, and at a high level of quality and follow through. Anyone who has dealt with trade/service providers knows that is a rare occurrence these days, and makes a world of difference. Would highly recommend Five Points for your roofing needs.

I love my new roof! I was apprehensive about looking for a roofing contractor, and did interview several before deciding to go with Five Points Roofing. My neighbors had an excellent experience with them, and when I met Alex, Bryan and David, I felt very comfortable. Each was pleasant, helpful and professional. Communication was great. They started the job on time, worked safely and respectfully, and finished with a thorough clean up. The process was smooth and efficient and I feel confident in the work they did and the integrity of the representatives as well as the reputation of the company. Five Points gets five stars!

Five Points Roofing did an outstanding job for us. They met or exceeded all expectations. Alex Histetler was on top of the project since day 1. Everything quoted was received exactly as quoted. He also handled the majority of the insurance issues making this a “hands off” project for us. Zillon Russell was the on-site project manager that assured everything was done to spec!I would used them again without hesitation.

Five Points Roofing removed and replaced the shingles of our home. They also helped us find a great contractor to do fascia repair and gutter replacement. Most houses in our neighborhood have replaced their roof after hail last summer. Five Points worked with my insurance, even walked the roof with the inspector, to ensure appropriate settlement. Doug of Five Points helped me to understand the whole process, answered every question, handled every concern. The crew was great. They got it done in one day. We are pleased with the result and thankful to Five Points for making it easy, almost fun, to get this essential project done. :)

I searched many roofing companies and Five Points was highly recommended and local and they did not disappoint. Call Matt Wilson today for your free inspection and estimate, he was awesome to deal with, no pressure, extremely friendly and aims to please. Matt and Five Points will always be my roofing company and I’ve had several friends follow my lead and all are completely satisfied with their jobs as well.

Doug Price rocks! I never expected someone from a roofing company to give such persistent energy dealing with my insurance company following storm damage. Doug has gone the extra mile in working through the barriers put up by my insurance company for the past several months. I think most would have moved on to easier customers. In all of my similar experiences, I have not seen such professionalism and willingness to prioritize my needs. I don't often give reviews, but I cannot miss the opportunity to acknowledge how great it has been working with Doug. If you are in need of roofing services, don't hesitate to call Five Points Roofing. Ask for Doug. You won't regret it.

I have used five points for three different roofs on my in-laws my parents and my own roofs. They are people that you can count on do do what they say they are going to do and show up when they are suppose to. George and his crew were consistently professional and were constantly checking to make sure it was all done correctly. There is a reason that I keep using them and that is because I can trust them to do the job correctly. You will not be disappointed with this company

I would highly recommend Five Points Roofing to anyone needing a new roof. These Google reviews do not lie! I called Five Points Roofing because I noticed an extremely small leak in our sunroom. Nathan the roofing consultant showed up on time and took a look at our roof. He indicated we had hail damage! From that point on Nathan took charge in dealing with the insurance adjuster and got it approved. We were getting a whole new roof! I was truly amazed! The repairs were planned and that morning I met with David the project manager. David walked me through what was going to happen that day. His team of roofers stripped the roof, repaired much of the damage to the sub roofing and started installing the shingles. This was like watching a swat team of skilled roofers.My wife and I were shocked that they accomplished this all in one day. Even our neighbors were astonished by the quality of the work they did. Thank you Five Points for doing such a great job and hiring Best In Class employees.Thanks,Pieter

Five Points just installed my roof. I was dreading this purchase, but this turned into a very easy purchase. When I called Five points they came out next day. We finalized deal in a week. Nathan kept me updated and they installed roof 4-5 weeks. Everything they told me they did. Their crew was great, installation was good and clean up was excellent. This is now my roofing company to use and recommend. Good people. 5 stars.

We were so happy with the service I referred two of my other neighbors to Doug and they used Five Points Roofing also.Thank you Doug and Five points for your fantastic service and wonderful job!

Five Points just installed a brand new roof on our home, and I can't express how happy we are with this company! Nathan led us through the process from start to finish -- very responsive to our questions and kept us up to date on scheduling. Ellmo and the installation crew did an amazing job over the two-day job. They were on time, respectful of our property, and answered my questions with a smile. My favorite part was how CLEAN the yard was once they were done! They take great pride in this, and that meant a lot to me as a homeowner. We had a minor issue with part of our gutter that we didn't notice til a few days later, but Five Points had someone come out the next day to fix it, no questions asked. Everyone we've interacted with has been truly top-notch. You can tell they value customer service highly, which is hard to come by these days. We will most definitely use them again in the future.

Called them 2 yrs ago when getting estimates. They were the only company that actually showed up on site, got on the roof, and inspected it. Others gave me estimates based on Google maps images. I was told my roof had 2-3 years left. No charge. Sure enough about two years later I got leaks in a big storm so I called them back. They are very busy but came right away and provided an estimate in a couple of days. Said they couldn't get started for about three weeks but later called and told me they had time available much sooner if I was ready. I was. Supervisor arrived at 6:45 A.M. as promised and crew was on the roof by 7:00. It's a very modest house but they had the old roof removed, rotted decking replaced, vent installed, and new roof complete by noon. They left no mess, no scraps, looked for dropped nails with magnetic rake. Heavy rain the next day and it all stayed outside. Completely professional first class job. Very happy with the whole thing.

Five Points Roofing has forever earned our business. I work offshore with an abnormal schedule being gone 28 days at a time. Our home had significant damage due to the horrific tornadoes that came through our area March 2020 ultimately resulting in a complete replacement. From the first call we made my family and I were felt to have been made a top priority. I was due to leave town 48 hours later and Five Points Roofing went above and beyond to make sure my wife and infant were under a safe roof while I was out of town all before a penny was spent. Kyle was absolutely a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. He made us feel completely comfortable at all times and had answers for every question we had which seemed like a million. His knowledge is second to none. After filing the initial insurance claim he worked with my agent to get everything approved along with the much needed upgrades. The installers did an amazing job and the roof came out beautiful. They were very professional and take pride in their work as it shows. My landscaping and yard were left clean and clear of any debris. After the job was completed a very nice gentleman named Brian came out to do a final inspection and make sure we were pleased with our experience. What a great feeling to know they care enough to third party inspect the job. I can’t say enough good things about this company. I appreciate all of their hard work and you will to given the opportunity to let them show you. 5 stars for Five Points Roofing.

I will always pick five Points Roofing. They went above and beyond at each step of the inspection, instillation, and follow up process.Knowing we needed to replay our roof that was more than 15 year old caused us pause as we did not know how to go through the process. After talking with Darcey they quickly came out to inspect the roof. After the inspection it was clear we needed a new roof but started to get push back from our insurance company. Multiple people worked hard within Five Points Roofing and after multiple calls from Five Points, my insurance company agreed to replace the roof. This was only done after an inspector from the insurance company look at the roof with Five Points. The date was set and the roof was replaced. No hidden costs. No surprises. There was a small issue after the installation after spray paint fell off the roof on the driveway, but they did EVERYTHING to fix the issue. They came out multiple times to clean the driveway and ended up stripped off the aggregate sealer and then resealed the entire driveway.I WILL NEVER PICK ANYONE ELSE TO BE ON MY ROOF!

Dealing with roof issues is generally not a pleasant experience, but I have to say, Five Points does a great job. Their customer service and communication made my bad situation a little more tolerable. I had a complicated situation with a leaky roof in a rental home I owned a couple years ago and Five Points couldn’t have handled it better. That was a relatively big job...but earlier this month I had a small job, just a few missing shingles, and they treated that job with the same level of service and attention to detail that they showed with the “big” job. These guys are outstanding and the quality of work performed is second to none. Highly, highly recommend.

On May 3rd, 2020 a severe storm damaged my roof and water poured through the ceiling of my garage. I called Five Point Roofing from a neighbor recommendation, and within an hour, a Five Point Repair crew was at my house sealing in the damaged shingles. The company helped with the insurance adjusters and did an excellent job replacing the entire roof. Honest, up front, good price, good crew and professional.. I give them a five star for how they helped me. They are good, everybody knows it , so they are busy. You might have to wait a week or two to get your roof replaced, but it is worth it.

Step 4: Reviewing Your Carrier’s Initial Repair or Replacement Estimate

Tip: Verify Insurance Estimating Software Certification
(Xactimate Certified or Symbility Certified)

Ask your contractor of choice if they are certified in the insurance estimating software Xactimate or Symbility Mobile Claims. Knowing how to read and write these estimates, as well as properly using the software, is key in ensuring you get a like-kind repair or replacement of your roof.

Five Points Roofing’s estimators have gone through rigorous insurance training to become Xactimate Level I and Level II certified.
(Less than 2,000 insurance estimators and adjusters worldwide have this level of certification.)

Review The Repair Estimate

Most carriers these days use one of two software programs to write insurance roof repair estimates. Whether it is a Xactimate roof estimate or a Symbility/Core Logic estimate, sit down with your contractor and review this estimate in detail. The estimate will detail items, labor, and materials needed to restore your roof to its pre-loss condition. You should also receive the ACV (Actual Cash Value) portion of your claim total by check with this estimate. Read more about ACV and RCV on our Understanding Your Insurance Estimate Terms page.

Missing or Incorrect Items

Many times, there are missing or incorrect items from the carrier’s original estimate that need to be added. Your contractor should be able to quickly identify what is missing and get those items sent to your carrier for additional payment.
(Usually local code-related items, incorrect shingle types or missed damage during the inspection)

Supplements

Supplements are items that were either left off the original estimate or additional damages found during installation that could not be identified without tearing off the existing roof. If these items are found after review, your contractor should write a supplement using the carrier’s preferred software, and submit it to your insurance carrier for additional payment.

Step 5: Material Selections & Contract Signing

Select Your Materials

Once your insurance carrier and contractor have agreed upon the scope of work, it’s time for the fun part. It is selecting your new roof materials and colors.

Upgrades

Work directly with your contractor on the materials and colors best suited for your home. Many homeowners use this time to upgrade their previous roof to a better quality material, such as a multi-layer premium asphalt shingle, a standing seam metal roof, or even something in the luxury designer range, such as slate or cedar shake. Some want to upgrade their gutters or venting systems to increase energy efficiency. No matter what you choose, just remember you can install any new materials you want, and your contractor will be able to give you a quote for the upgrade, which will be an additional out-of-pocket expense on top of your insurance deductible.

Little Known Fact… Premium insurance carriers’ policies, such as those with Pure and Chubb, offer fixed upgrade incentives. This means that by selecting an energy-efficient product or a material that will help protect the property from future damage could be additionally paid for at no upgrade cost to the homeowner! Some policies have up to $50,000 efficiency upgrade promotions!

Contract Signing

Once all the materials and colors are selected, everything should be put into a contract. If your contractor just asks you to sign the estimate without any firm commitments and deliverables or offers other things that sound too good to be true, be cautious. A contract is in place to protect both you and the contractor from loss, and identifies all terms including the new roof’s warranty.
(Five Points Roofing Has An Unparalleled Limited Lifetime Labor and Material Warranty)

Tip: Be Wary Of Contractors “Crediting” or “Eating” Your Deductible

It’s insurance fraud. Plain and simple. No other description is needed. Reputable general contractors aren’t going to risk losing their licenses to save a homeowner $500-$1000. And it’s not just the contractor at risk, the homeowner faces legal penalties as well for negotiating to not pay their deductible. Think about it, if they’re doing something shady and get caught, they’ll probably throw you under the bus to try and save their butts.

Bonus: Five Points Roofing Doesn’t Collect Final Payment Until After the Install

Unless you have a *special order product or an insurance claim with a deductible, we don’t collect a dime until the day of roof installation.

* Special order products are subject to a 50% deposit due to their non-returnable nature.

Step 6: Roof Replacement Scheduling & Job Completion

Tip: Your Contractor Should Submit All Paperwork For RCV Payment

Ask your contractor of choice if they will handle all applicable paperwork that needs to be submitted to release all final payments from your insurance carrier. Usually, an insurance carrier requires the following documentation: Certificate of Completion (Completed by the contractor), Final Invoice, and Photos of Completed Work including code upgrades (Drip Edge, Ice & Water, etc.)

Five Points Roofing’s consultants handle all this leg work for our customers. Insurance paperwork can be confusing and stressful, and we don’t want you to have to deal with that.

Roof Replacement

Tentative Scheduling

Once a contract is signed, your contractor should provide a tentative date of installation. Depending on the month of the year, a Five Points Roofing installation typically runs about 3-6 weeks from the date of the contract depending on where you’re located. Keep in mind, this initial date is tentative. The schedule can change pending weather and many variables go into timelines. Your contractor should keep you up to date on any changes to the tentative schedule.

Installation Confirmation

For Five Points Roofing, our process is to notify our customers three days before their scheduled date, they’ll get a confirmation call with their roof material order, color, and planned installation date. Once started, installation can take anywhere from 1 to 5 days depending on the size of the home. Most homes under 40 Squares of roof material (4,000 Sq. Ft.) can be completed in one day.

Job Completion & Notification To Carrier

After the job is fully complete, your contractor should notify the insurance carrier and provide a “Certificate of Completion” and a final invoice. Once they receive this paperwork, any recoverable depreciation or code upgrades held from the original payment will be released to the homeowner typically within 7-10 business days.

Final Payment Collection

The last thing to do is pay the final outstanding balance, which is usually the recoverable depreciation (Difference of RCV minus ACV) plus any additional supplements, insurance paid code upgrades, or homeowner paid upgrades. Five Points Roofing collects this payment after it is received by the homeowner.
