Hail damage on asphalt shingles appears as dark, circular bruising or divots where granules have been knocked away — often compared to a ball-peen hammer strike. Missing granules expose the underlying asphalt to UV degradation. In Duchess Landing, any hail event over 1 inch warrants a professional inspection. We provide written damage assessments for McIntosh County homeowners.

Flood insurance (NFIP or private) covers damage caused by flooding — water rising from outside the structure. It does not cover roof damage from rain intrusion during a storm event, which is covered under standard homeowners insurance if wind or hail caused the entry point.

Moral hazard provisions prevent coverage if the insured intentionally caused or allowed the damage, or failed to take reasonable steps to prevent damage after becoming aware of a problem. This is the basis for denial of maintenance-neglect claims.

Claims must be filed within your policy's window — typically 1-3 years from the event. The longer you wait, the harder it is to document that specific damage ties to a specific event rather than ongoing aging. Earlier documentation is always stronger.

Some carriers offer roof warranty endorsements that provide coverage specifically tied to the roofing system — covering failures that would otherwise fall into the maintenance exclusion category. These endorsements vary significantly and should be reviewed carefully before purchasing.

Carriers use software-based pricing (typically Xactimate) to define the scope and unit costs of covered repairs. This pricing may be below local market rates. Contractors can negotiate adjustments with documented local material and labor costs.

Homeowners insurance covers roof replacement caused by covered perils — storms, wind, hail, fire, fallen trees. It doesn't cover replacement due to age, wear and tear, or neglected maintenance.

Get a professional inspection first to document the damage. Then contact your insurance carrier with your policy number and a description of the event. Your carrier will assign an adjuster. Having your contractor's report ready before the adjuster visit strengthens your claim.

Your deductible is the amount you pay before insurance coverage applies. Standard deductibles are a flat dollar amount ($1,000-$5,000). Wind and hail deductibles may be a percentage of your home's insured value — often 1-5% — which can be significantly higher.

Actual Cash Value coverage pays the depreciated value of your roof at the time of the claim. A 15-year-old roof with 15-year depreciation applied may receive significantly less than replacement cost. ACV policies produce lower payouts than Replacement Cost Value (RCV) policies.

Replacement Cost Value coverage pays to replace damaged roof components with equivalent new materials at current prices, less your deductible. RCV policies typically pay in two installments — an initial ACV payment, then the depreciation holdback after the work is completed.

Yes. Common denial reasons include attributing damage to wear and tear rather than a covered storm event, pre-existing conditions, maintenance neglect, or claims filed outside the policy window. Denials can be disputed with additional documentation or a public adjuster.

Some carriers require a roof certification — a licensed contractor's written statement that the roof meets minimum condition standards — for homes with aging roofs. A roof certification may also be required to maintain coverage or get a new policy.

Some carriers will non-renew policies on homes with roofs past a certain age (typically 20-25 years) or require ACV-only coverage for older roofs. Proactive replacement or a roof certification can address carrier concerns in some cases.

No. Leaks caused by age-related deterioration and maintenance failure are not covered perils. Insurance covers sudden, accidental damage from external events. The distinction between age-related and storm-related damage is often contested and requires documentation.
