Start with what you can observe safely

Tell the team where you see a leak or visible damage and when it appeared. Save any photos you already have and note previous repairs. Avoid climbing onto a damaged roof.

Separate roof findings from coverage decisions

Ask for a clear description of the roof findings and proposed construction work. Direct policy and coverage questions to your insurer or an appropriately licensed professional.

The details behind the decision

Document the condition before deciding the scope.

After a storm, begin with observations you can make safely from inside or from the ground. Record where you see water or visible damage and when you first noticed it. Roof findings, construction recommendations and insurance coverage are separate questions that should be documented separately.

01While conditions are unsafe

Stay off the roof. Keep clear of damaged structures, electrical hazards and visibly sagging ceilings. Use emergency services when there is immediate danger. A roof photo is not worth entering an unsafe area or attempting a temporary repair yourself.

02When arranging the assessment

Describe active leaks, affected rooms and visible exterior changes. Share photos you already have, earlier roof records and the approximate timing of the event. Ask about current availability and temporary protection separately from the permanent repair scope.

03When reviewing the findings

Ask for the location, observed condition and proposed work to be explained together. Keep construction documentation and direct policy questions to your insurer or appropriately licensed representative. Do not treat a website checklist as a coverage decision.
