Can I claim for a leaking roof in Fayetteville?

Roofing near Fayetteville
​​Yes and no, the clearest answer to this question depends on your insurance policy and the different coverages you have within your insurance plan. Most insurance companies do cover peril damages regarding a roof leak, roof damage and roof replacement but the claim will depend on what caused the leaking roof. It is very important to figure out how the leak started to occur and in what location, for example if the roof leak was caused by lack of maintenance over the years on the homeowners part then the claim would most likely be declined. However if a large branch damaged some shingles from a recent wind and rain storm then this would most likely be covered within your policy as an “act of god”.
Like mentioned above your policy will dictate how much coverage you have but in general most companies will cover the leak repair minus your deductible. To calculate the cost it would be to have a leaky roof repaired be sure to contact our Fayetteville roofers so they can visit the home and offer an accurate estimate. There will be times when you will not want to file a claim for the roofing repairs, for example if you have a $1000 deductible but the repair to fix the leak is only going to cost $400 then it would be smarter to not file a claim and simply pay for the repair out of pocket. In some instances if there is more damage to the entirety of the roof you may be able to submit a roof replacement claim which would fix the leak repair along with installing new shingles across the entire home. Once again this depends on your policy and can vary slightly from company to company so be sure to contact your agent. It is also a good practice to look into the exclusion section of your policy to see what isn't covered in your plan (these will be things like normal aging, bad workmanship from another company etc). 
Again the answer is hard to determine depending on your insurance policy. It is always smart to be aware of your policy, what is included and what is not covered. If you have any doubts about your insurance plan you can always go online to their website, login to your customer portal, call their phone number or email your agent directly.
