What Insurance Usually Covers

Most homeowners policies may cover sudden, accidental damage caused by events like:

Coverage depends on your policy, deductible, and whether your roof is covered at Replacement Cost Value (RCV) or Actual Cash Value (ACV).

THE PROCESS・ Step-by-Step

How an Insurance Claim Works

STEP 1: Schedule a Storm Damage Inspection

Start with a professional inspection to document potential damage. Orange Exteriors can check your roof, siding, windows, and gutters and provide photo documentation and a clear summary of what we find.

STEP 3: Adjuster Inspection (We Can Be There)

Your insurance adjuster will inspect the property and determine coverage eligibility.

STEP 5: Supplements (When Needed)

Supplements are common and simply mean additional items were discovered or required to complete the job properly, such as hidden decking damage, code-required components, or under-scoped material quantities.

STEP 7: Final Paperwork & Claim Close-Out

After the job is completed, you may receive remaining funds (such as depreciation, if applicable under RCV policies). We’ll provide final invoices and completion documentation as needed to help close out your claim.

STEP 2: File the Claim with Your Insurance Company

If the damage appears claim-worthy, you (the homeowner) contact your insurance company to start the claim.

STEP 4: Review the Insurance Estimate

If approved, your insurer issues an estimate outlining what they will pay for repairs or replacement.

STEP 6: Build, Repair, or Replace

Once the scope is confirmed, we schedule your project. Our team completes the work with high-quality materials and professional craftsmanship—and keeps you updated throughout the entire build.
