Hail and wind can affect nearby properties differently. Safe ground-level documentation and a roofing-company inspection can help establish the condition of a specific roof.
Materials, installation, maintenance, exposure, and visible signs all matter. A self-reported age cannot establish actual roof condition.
Policy terms and legal deadlines vary. Review your policy, contact your insurer or agent about coverage and deadlines, and speak with an Alabama attorney about a dispute.
Take dated photos of each side, gutters, the outdoor HVAC unit, and any interior ceiling stains. Keep them as a record of what you observed.
Storm-stressed shingles, hidden mat fractures, and fall risk all argue against DIY roof inspection. A roofing company can handle roof-level inspection with appropriate safety equipment.
ACV and RCV provisions vary by policy. Contact your insurer or agent about coverage, deductibles, and reporting deadlines.
Save ground-level photos and ask a roofing company to inspect the roof. Contact your insurer or agent about coverage and reporting deadlines.
Review the deductible in your policy and ask your insurer or agent how it applies. Be cautious of any offer to hide or misstate project costs.
Save photos and notes, and ask your insurer or agent about any policy deadlines.
Not every roof replacement is an insurance job. If your roof is aging, leaking, or you simply want it replaced, submit a request and we may match you with a partner roofing company for a straightforward replacement.
You pay a price agreed with your matched roofing company: no carrier, no adjuster, no claim process. The partner company handles the replacement directly with you.
We match you with one partner roofing company based on your project and service area. What you're quoted for a replacement versus a repair is a conversation with that company.
Once matched, your partner roofing company will review your roof and provide a proposal. For an insurance-related project, costs depend on the policy, deductible, insurer's decision, and the roofing-company proposal.
After inspection, ask the roofing company to explain why its proposed scope fits the observed condition. A repair and a larger project may address different issues; these questions can help you understand the distinction without diagnosing the roof yourself.

Free Roof Score, published by A&E Roofing Advisors LLC, is a free matching service. Submit a short request describing your roof and project. It may be shared with one partner roofing company that serves your area, chosen by service area, project type, and partner availability. A match is not guaranteed.
The matched roofing company is an independent business. They perform any inspection, provide the estimate, and complete the work directly with you. For an insurance-related project, costs depend on the policy, deductible, insurer's decision, and the roofing-company proposal.
Free Roof Score is free to homeowners. A&E is compensated by the partner network only when a job moves forward. If you have a dispute with your insurance company, consider speaking with an Alabama attorney. For Alabama-specific storm damage guidance, see our Alabama hail damage resource page.
