Roof damage insurance is essential for protecting your home from:

- Wear and tear—Some policies may cover gradual damage from aging and exposure to the elements.
- Falling debris—Coverage for damage caused by falling trees, branches, and other debris.
- Animal damage—Protection against damage caused by squirrels or birds.
As a homeowner, understanding what your insurance covers and your responsibilities in the claims process is crucial. You can depend on our team to interpret your policy, help you understand your coverage, and swiftly address roof damage issues.
Spotting the Signs of Roof Damage
Recognizing the signs of roof damage early can help you address issues before they become significant problems. Common warning signs include:
- Missing or damaged shingles— Look for cracked, warped, or missing shingles that can expose your roof to further damage.
- Leaks and water stains—Water stains on your ceiling or walls often indicate a leaky roof, which needs immediate attention to prevent more extensive damage.
- Sagging roof—A visibly sagging roof can suggest structural damage or severe water accumulation, requiring prompt repair.
- Granules in gutters—Finding granules from shingles in your gutters can signal that your shingles are deteriorating and may need to be replaced.
Other signs include visible moss or algae growth, which can retain moisture and cause further damage, and daylight visible through the roof boards in your attic.
