How the Insurance Claim Process Works

  1. Document the damage — Your contractor performs a thorough inspection and photographs all damage
  2. File your claim — Contact your insurance company to report the damage and open a claim
  3. Meet with the adjuster — Your contractor can be present during the adjuster's inspection to ensure all damage is identified
  4. Review the estimate — Compare the insurance company's estimate with your contractor's assessment
  5. Approve repairs — Once the claim is approved, schedule your roof repair or replacement

Common Covered Events in Central Florida

Florida homeowners insurance typically covers roof damage from:

  • Hurricanes and tropical storms — wind damage, flying debris, and rain intrusion
  • Hailstorms — impact damage to shingles, tiles, and flashing
  • Fallen trees — impact damage from trees blown down during storms
  • Lightning strikes — structural damage and fire

What Insurance Typically Does Not Cover

Standard policies generally exclude damage from normal wear and tear, lack of maintenance, and gradual deterioration. If your insurer denies a claim you believe is valid, our contractors can provide additional documentation to support an appeal.

Florida-Specific Considerations

Florida's insurance market has unique challenges. Many insurers will not renew policies if your roof is over 15 years old. Understanding your policy's wind damage deductible — which is often a percentage of your home's insured value rather than a flat dollar amount — is critical before filing a claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my insurance cover a new roof in Orlando?
If your roof was damaged by a covered event like a hurricane, hailstorm, or fallen tree, your insurance may cover repair or replacement minus your deductible. Our contractors can assess the damage and help determine if a claim is warranted.
Can the contractor meet with my insurance adjuster?
Yes. Having your contractor present during the adjuster inspection helps ensure all damage is properly documented and nothing is overlooked.
What if my insurance claim is denied?
Your contractor can provide additional documentation and a detailed assessment to support an appeal. You may also consult with a public adjuster or attorney who specializes in insurance claims.
How long does the insurance roof claim process take in Orlando?
Florida law requires insurance companies to acknowledge your claim within 14 days and make a coverage decision within 90 days. In practice, straightforward claims are often resolved within 30 to 60 days. Disputed claims or those requiring supplemental inspections can take longer. Working with an experienced roofing contractor who handles insurance claims regularly helps keep the process moving.
What if my Orlando insurance payout does not cover the full roof replacement cost?
If the insurance estimate is lower than the actual cost of repairs, your contractor can file a supplement with additional documentation justifying the higher amount. This is a standard process and often results in an increased payout. If the supplement is denied, you may need to involve a public adjuster or request an appraisal under your policy's dispute resolution process.
Does my Orlando insurance cover roof damage from falling trees?
Yes, most homeowners insurance policies cover roof damage from falling trees, whether from your property or a neighbor's. The damage is considered sudden and accidental. Your policy typically covers removing the tree from the structure as well. Document the damage immediately and contact your insurance company and a licensed roofing contractor the same day.
