- Fire DamageFire can be devastating for a roof system and require a full roof replacement.
- Falling TreesA tree that falls on the roof can cause major damage that needs repair or replacement.

Filing a claim
Filing a Roof Insurance Claim in New Orleans
At TurnKey Roofer, we make roof insurance claims simple and stress-free. Our roofing professionals work with you to make sure your roof is repaired or replaced correctly. Here are some tips on filing a roof insurance claim.
Read Your Insurance Policy
The first step is to learn about your policy. It’s pointless to fight for coverage you never had. Did you exclude wind and hail damage? Is your coverage based on replacement cost or actual cash value?
Examine the Damages
If you suspect storm damage, inspect your entire home and not just the roof, so you know what damage occurred before you contact your insurer.
Request an Estimate
Get a repair estimate based on what you have, not how you want to change things. Do not rely on the adjuster to set the cost of the repair. Get a written estimate on a roofing company’s letterhead with its contact information.
Document Damages
Take photos and videos of the damage before the roof is repaired or replaced, so you can produce evidence if there is any problem with the claim.
Hire a Professional
Hire an experienced roofing professional who can repair or replace your roof correctly and efficiently. TurnKey Roofer works closely with your insurance company throughout the claim.
Get a Free Estimate
An estimator surveys your roof and gives you a cost estimate, with no obligation to book.
