House Damage and Homeowner's Insurance
Luckily most standard homeowner's insurance policies will include coverage for disasters such as hailstorms. These damages can include anything from minor scratches and dents to broken windows and holes in the roof. So what do you do once a hailstorm hits?
1. First you will want to document any visible damages done to your home. Damages can be documented by using a digital camera and can be requested by the insurance agency, so it's best to take clear pictures of all damage done in order to get the most out of your claim.
2. Next if any damage has been done to the roof a certified roof inspector should be called. They will be able to assess the damage for you and will be able to tell you if a claim should be filed.
3. Prior to filing a claim, a homeowner should always read their policy to make sure hailstorm is covered.
