What to Know About Filing a Roof Damage Insurance Claim
When severe hail damage destroys your roof, the first step you will face is filing a roof damage insurance claim. This process can feel overwhelming–between inspections, paperwork, and dealing with the insurance adjuster, it’s easy to miss important details that affect your settlement.
As professional roofing contractors, we don’t just replace roofs; we also help homeowners navigate the insurance process. With the right guidance, you can avoid common pitfalls, get the coverage you deserve, and restore your home with confidence.
A roof damage insurance claim is a request you file with your insurance company after hail, wind, or storm damage impacts your home. Simply put, the goal is to receive funds to repair or replace your roof and restore your home to its pre-storm condition.
While only licensed adjusters or attorneys can legally negotiate with your insurance company, we play a vital role to help you avoid pitfalls and reach a settlement that is in your best interest.
Here’s what we do:
Understanding your policy is the first and most important step. With a quick review, we can recommend the best course of action to position you for the best outcome.
We use precise arial measurements, drones, AI, and master level climbers to gather photos, videos, and generate reports.
By using industry standard software and ethics, we can generate the most accurate and current fair market value of your home repairs.
Working directly with a field or desk adjuster, we go through your property with a fine tooth comb so that nothing is overlooked.
From endorsing a check with your mortgage company or contacting your HOA, we’ll guide you through every step to ensure you won’t make any mistakes.
Many homeowners assume the process is simple: file a claim, wait for an approval, and get a check in the mail. Unfortunately, it doesn’t always work out that way. Here are four reasons why roof damage insurance claims often require a little extra help:
Insurance estimates often use the lowest possible repair costs, which may not match real-world construction expenses. With us by your side, you won’t have to worry about covering the difference.
Terms like “replacement cost value” and “depreciation” can be confusing. We’ll guide you step by step through the process and explain these terms and how they affect your settlement.
Managing phone calls, paperwork, and inspections can feel like a second job. At Final Cut, we completely take over all of the hassle and juggling act and execute every step with a progress tracker so you can follow along and see what’s happening in real time.
At Final Cut, we understand that choosing the right contractor is not only challenging but it’s also the first and most important decision you will make during your roof damage insurance claim process.
We’re committed to building trust every step of the way by:
There is no pressure for you to sign anything. And since there’s nothing to sign, there’s no obligation, no hidden fees, and no pressure for you to proceed if you don’t feel comfortable. Our service is complete free.
We get paid when you get paid. There will be no request for payment until the job is done, has passed city inspection, and you are 100% satisfied.
We’ll quickly work to cover affected areas to prevent the damage from getting worse. This allows us to slow things down so you relax and make smart decisions on how to proceed.
“Final Cut Roofing takes what could potentially be a highly stressful situation and removes that from your plate by handling all the details. While I know they were juggling multiple other projects at the same time, they always had a way of making you feel like you were their only or most important client. That’s a really nice feeling to have when dealing with something as financially important as major home improvements.”

I worked with Mark Nosrati (owner of Final Cut) to get some repairs done on an existing fence. He is professional, knowledgeable, communicative, and very responsive. The installer completed the job to my total satisfaction. Highly recommend Final Cut for any job! Excellent to work with!

Jenny KDecember 21, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had some shingles buckling and Jordan came out same day and was able to replace them. Checked our roof for any other issues as well. They did a great job and left the area clean. We have rain coming so really appreciated the quick turnaround. Would definitely call again if we have other issues. Jared WDecember 1, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jordan was fast, personable and did great work. The price couldn't have been better. Thanks! Oscar BSeptember 28, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark and his team did a fantastic job on my home. I got extensive hail damage on my gutters, window screens, fence and roof. He was also able to get me a much needed downspout and repairs on my garage door molding. He was very instrumental in negotiating with my insurance company on getting them to reevaluate their estimates so that most of the damages would be covered. I trusted his judgement and recommendations every step of the way. I will consider Final Cut Roofing again for future projects. A HJuly 20, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Final Cut Roofing and owner Mark Nosrati has my highest recommendation. Mark is an excellent communicator, meticulously detail oriented and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my Roof. I came across Final Cut Roofing many years ago when I continued to see positive reviews on the neighborhood NextDoor app. Annually after hail season I’d have him out for an assessment of the roof and for many years when so many other roofers kept telling me I should replace the roof. Mark was honest in his assessments and thorough in his analysis. He would take pictures and show areas to watch but assess that the roof still looks good … until one hailstorm too many it had finally done enough damage that it was time to replace. Mark kept me informed every step of the way making a potentially stressful time far less so by handling all the little details. Final Cut Roofing stands behind their craftsmanship. Any issues or concerns, one call/text to Mark and he has me on the schedule to take a look and make any necessary repairs. I highly recommend Final Cut Roofing for an honest assessment and quality craftsmanship.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
