Lower premiums - Reduced payout - **Example:** $15,000 roof, 10 years old = ~$10,000 payout ### Deductible Amounts **Standard Deductibles:** - Fixed amount: $1,000 - $5,000 - Percentage: 1% - 2% of dwelling coverage **Percentage Deductibles:** $300,000 home with 1% deductible = $3,000 out-of-pocket **Wind/Hail Deductibles:** Some Texas policies have separate, higher deductibles for wind/hail damage - Often 1% - 5% of dwelling coverage - Can be $3,000 - $15,000+ out of pocket ### Coverage Limits **Full Replacement:** - Covers entire roof replacement - Up to policy limits - Includes code upgrades **Limited Repair:** -

Policy number - Date of damage - Type of damage - Extent of damage (estimated) - Interior damage (if any) ### Step 3: Schedule Insurance Inspection **What Happens:** - Adjuster assigned to your claim - Inspection scheduled (usually 3-10 days) - Adjuster inspects roof damage - Interior inspection if relevant **Preparation:** - Be present for inspection - Show all damage - Provide photos/documentation -

Compare estimates - Identify discrepancies - Provide documentation - Advocate for you - Professional communication with insurer ### Step 7: Claim Approval **Once Approved:** - Review settlement offer - Understand payment schedule - Verify full scope covered - Check deductible amount ### Step 8: Initial Payment **Typical Process:** - RCV policies: Initial ACV payment - ACV policies: Full payment - Mortgage companies: Check may include lender - Deductible: Your responsibility ### Step 9: Complete Repairs **Contractor Selection:** - Choose registered, certified, insured contractor - Verify credentials - Get written contract - Ensure warranty coverage **Our Process:** - Complete all approved work - Use proper materials - Document installation - Provide completion certificate ### Step 10: Final Payment (RCV Policies) **Recoverable Depreciation:** - Paid after work completion -

Wear and tear determination - Maintenance issues claimed - Insufficient documentation - Policy exclusions **Solutions:** - Request detailed denial explanation - Provide additional documentation - Professional assessment -
