• • Storm-rated tiles: Impact-resistant clay or concrete tiles for storm protection
• • Synthetic materials: Storm-proof synthetic slate and shake options

Will my homeowner's insurance cover storm damage repairs in Kensington?

Most Kensington homeowners successfully claim storm damage repairs when damage results from covered weather events like windstorms, hail, or atmospheric rivers. Insurance typically covers sudden storm damage but not gradual wear. We assist with storm damage documentation and work directly with adjusters to maximize coverage.

How do I know if I need storm damage repairs or full replacement?

Our certified storm damage inspectors assess several factors:

• • Storm damage extent: Multiple storm-damaged areas may require replacement
• • Age combined with damage: Older roofs with storm damage often need replacement
• • Granule loss from hail: Widespread hail damage means shingles need replacement
• • Structural storm damage: Wind damage to decking requires extensive work
• • Cost comparison: Sometimes replacement is more economical than extensive storm repairs

We provide honest storm damage recommendations based on your roof's condition.
