Why Accurate Roof Measurement for Insurance Claims Matters
Facts and verified data are the backbone of all insurance claims. When determining how much material and labour will be used to replace a roof, how long the roof has been in service, and what the total replacement cost will be, roof measurements will typically represent the starting point in the quotation process. Without accurate roof measurements, even the most seasoned adjuster/contractor must rely upon estimates for all of this information.
We provide roof measurements that allow for:
- Accuracy in fair claims settlement.
- Quicker approval for Insurance Claims (less time waiting for the claims department to process an insurance claim).
- Reduced insurance claim disputes.
- Consistent estimating results for both the insurance adjusters and contractors.
- Better co-ordination between the contractor and the insurance company.
We provide a complete and accurate calculation of every square foot, slope, ridge, valley and penetration on the roof.
