Roof Info.

Thursday, May 5, 2011

Yesterday was busy. Since the high winds (a think a week ago) where a section of shingles got blown off, we had a few roofers come out and give estimates that the insurance people asked for.

The roofers have only been estimating what it would cost to patch in the area. The roofer that came over yesterday said that they work he would do would cost about $1250 and suggested that we not go through the insurance to get it paid. He said that usually we homeowner has to pay at least $1000 (not sure what our insurance asks) and that it wouldn’t be worth it cause after we have a claim on our record they usually up the yearly insurance payment the next year.

Well after that a man from out insurance adjuster came out the asses the damage. He said we have a lot of hail damage as well and he is going to try and get the insurance to accept for our whole roof and garage to be reroofed. If that is the case then paying $1000 and them paying the rest would totally be worth it.

If not and they just want it patched, then Bob is thinking of just doing it himself so it won’t cost us that much.

We will see, it’s in God hands. We are both praying!
