Homeowners need to know what kind of insurance policies they carry and the coverage they offer.
Covering The Costs
The first insurance homeowners can look to help cover the costs of a roof replacement is homeowners insurance. Most standard homeowners insurance policies include coverage for damage caused by things like wind, hail, and falling tree debris. So if a storm causes damage or enough damage to your roof your homeowner’s insurance policy will help cover the costs. Quality Roofing Pro works with customers’ insurance companies to help homeowners navigate policy claims.
Secondly, there may be an instance where flood insurance can help cover the costs of a homeowner’s roof replacement project. This type of insurance is specifically designed to cover damage caused by flooding if your home is in a flood-prone area and you have flood insurance. Flood insurance may have limitations and homeowners should work very closely with their policy issuer to help determine if flood insurance may be able to help pay for a new roof if their old one is damaged by flooding.
Warranty
Lastly, in some cases, homeowners may also be able to use a home warranty to help cover the costs of a roof replacement. A home warranty is a type of insurance that covers certain repairs and replacements for items in your home, including your roof. Many home warranties include coverage for roof replacements, so if you have a home warranty, it’s worth checking to see if it includes this coverage.
It’s important to note that not all types of damage to your roof will be covered by insurance. For example, if your roof is old and begins to leak due to normal wear and tear, your insurance policy is unlikely to cover the costs of a replacement. Additionally, if you make any modifications to your roof that void its warranty, your insurance may not cover the costs of a replacement.
