It depends on your carrier, but typically your insurer won't hike your rate since weather damage isn't caused by your negligence. However, your rate may increase if you've filed multiple claims within the last three previous years. In some cases, your insurer may not approve your claim and still require you to replace your roof due to its condition before continuing to provide coverage.
If you are confident there is sufficient damage to your roof to warrant filing a claim, it's not necessary to wait for a contractor to inspect the property beforehand. However, if possible it is highly suggested to have Luxe perform a proper inspection before the insurance inspector so you can share the findings and nothing is missed in his or her settlement offer.
We do our best to be present and answer questions during the insurance adjuster's inspection, but there are times when our schedules do not align.
We will ask you to sign an agreement that commits you to use Luxe if we reach an agreement with the insurance company on scope and price.
If you answer yes to any of these three questions, there is a good chance your roof has storm damage:
Once a claim is approved, we will work quickly with you to finalize the specifications and product selection. Next we place your material order and schedule our crew. The install should take one complete day in most cases. The entire process after settlement should take 2-3 weeks depending on weather.
Actually, it is against the law in most states for a contractor to negotiate with an insurance company on behalf of a policyholder. However, we will make sure that all necessary repairs are considered.
Luxe’s storm specialists are trained to identify surface damage from severe weather that may not be apparent initially but will continue to deteriorate over time. These telltale signs of storm damage may not be visible from the ground. Homeowners expose themselves to unnecessary risk when they climb onto their roofs and attempt to photograph storm damage.
Yes, you can select a roofing product that costs more than what is covered by your insurance claim. Many homeowners choose to upgrade to an impact resistant asphalt shingle since they only have to pay their deductible plus the difference in cost. We call this extra cost the “Upgrade Cost.”
That depends. If you have full replacement value insurance the age of your materials will not matter. Your policy will cover labor and comparable new materials. Without it the adjuster will depreciate the value based on age and condition of the materials.
Most insurance policies stipulate that materials should reasonably match. If the existing product is no longer available or it is too worn to match new materials, you should push for total replacement.
Insurance companies understand that some conditions cannot be assessed until demolition. If additional damage is discovered, you can submit a claim for supplemental repairs.
You may apply for financing and elect to pay for your roof over time rather than using your insurance proceeds to cover the full cost of the roof all at once.
It is illegal for a contractor to reimburse a homeowner to offset the deductible on an insurance claim.
Luxe will mark and photograph damage and itemize materials and work needed to restore your home.
The insurance company will pay you directly and in stages and you will be responsible for paying Luxe the deductible and balance plus any upgrades.
Supplemental is a settlement for additional work that is identified as required after the initial settlement agreement.
Roofs are built to last, but eventually, they'll need replacing. Keep an eye out for signs that it's time for a new one, like leaks or water damage inside your home. The lifespan of your roof depends on its materials and installation, but some common signs of an aging roof include:
Be mindful that storm damage or poor installation may sometimes require a replacement sooner than expected.

Many warning signs of a failing roof can be spotted during a visual inspection. Look out for:
If your home has an asphalt shingle roof that’s more than 20 years old, it may need to be replaced even if it isn’t showing outward signs of failure.
The timeline depends on factors like roof size, complexity, accessibility, weather, and material type. Most roofs can be replaced in a day, but some may take up to three weeks for larger or more complex projects.
You'll typically receive two warranties: one for workmanship from your contractor and one for the materials themselves. Workmanship warranties vary, so look for a contractor who offers at least a 10-year warranty like us. Material warranties depend on the type of roofing material you choose.
Insurance typically covers roof damage caused by extreme weather events like storms, hail, snow, or tornadoes. It might also cover damage from fallen tree limbs. However, your insurance adjuster and company have the final say on claim approval.
While it's possible to install a new roof over your existing one, it's generally not recommended. This method may lead to issues such as:
It's best to remove the old roof and inspect the decking before installing a new one.
Regular maintenance can help extend your roof's lifespan. Some tips include:
Storm damage can manifest in various ways, depending on the type of storm. Look for signs such as:
