After a storm hits Otego, getting a proper inspection is critical. Most insurance policies in NY have a 12-month filing window for storm claims. Otego Roofing & Maintenance provides free inspections, thorough documentation, and handles the claim process so nothing slips through the cracks.
Not all storm damage qualifies for a full replacement. Hail might only affect one slope. Wind might only lift shingles on the windward side. We document exactly what's damaged and let the insurance company make the call. Honest documentation gets claims approved. Inflated reports get denied and blacklisted.
Our Storm Damage Repair Process
Free Storm Inspection
Within 48 hours of the storm, our inspector is on your Otego roof. We check for hail impact, wind-driven shingle lift, cracked ridge caps, and any penetration failures. A full photo report is provided regardless of whether damage is found.
Insurance Claim Filing
We help you file the claim with your insurance carrier using our inspection report, photos, and damage summary. This documentation follows the same standards adjusters use, which means smoother processing.
Adjuster Meeting
Your adjuster gets a guided tour of the damage by our inspector. We speak the same language: hail hit classification, wind speed thresholds, manufacturer warranties voided by damage. This meeting is where claims get approved.
Repair or Replace
Once approved, our Otego crew handles the repair or replacement at the insurance-agreed price. You pay your deductible. We do the work, file the completion paperwork, and you're done.
