3 Most Common Questions
Will my claim be denied because my roof is old?
An insurance claim for roof damage may be denied because of the age of the roof. If the roof is too old or the damage is caused by normal wear and tear, it is unlikely that your insurance policy will cover the cost to repair the damage or replace the roof.
How long will it take to settle my claim?
Claim processing times can vary depending on the type and severity of the damage, how quickly you make a claim, and when an adjuster is available to assess the damage. Once the claim is settled, it can take 30 to 60 days to receive the claim check.
Do homeowners insurance cover roof leaks?
Homeowners’ insurance may or may not cover roof leaks, depending on what caused the roof leak. If a covered peril caused the roof leak, then homeowners insurance should cover it. On the other hand, insurance tends not to cover roof leaks if the leak is due to an older roof, neglected or poorly maintained roof, or something the homeowner did to damage the roof.
