Insurance companies are scrutinizing claims more thoroughly than ever, requiring an abundance of evidence indicating storm damage. In some cases, they have even attempted to deny claims that involve valid and obvious storm damage caused by wind and hail in order to avoid issuing payments on legitimate losses.

How Insurance Companies Are Cracking Down on Claims

  1. Stricter Coverage Policies:
    Many insurance companies are reducing coverage options, particularly for older roofs. Some policies now only provide Actual Cash Value (ACV) coverage for roofs over a certain age, reimbursing homeowners based on the depreciated value rather than the replacement cost.
  2. Higher Deductibles:
    Homeowners are facing deductibles that have increased dramatically. Policies with percentage-based deductibles, such as 1% or 2% of your home’s insured value, are becoming more common, leading to higher out-of-pocket costs during claims.
  3. Nationwide Rate Increases:
    Property insurance rates in the U.S. have skyrocketed, with a 23% increase from 2023 to 2024. These rising costs are forcing many homeowners to reevaluate their budgets and insurance policies.
  4. Tighter Claim Scrutiny:
     If you are unhappy with your current insurance company, we have partnered with some agencies that provide great coverage and support for their customers that we are happy to recommend.

JC Martinez came to check on a roof leak i had and was able to immediately figure out was was going on. He told me the quote and was able to get me on the schedule the very next week. They fixed the cause of the leak but also to my surprise repainted all of the vents. Great job by him and his crew
Truly great service. Josh De La Rosa did an excellent job managing all the repairs following hailstorm damages . Highly recommended
