Big Lake MN Hail Damage July 1 2011

Call 763-746-4913 for detailed and Certified Hail Damage Inspection, and Insurance Restoration Action Plan.

Even if you look at your roof after a hail storm and you don’t see any damage doesn’t mean the damage isn’t there. Hail storms can be quite powerful and although the issue may not be visible now doesn’t mean that it won’t make its self known in the form of a leak or shingles that seem to blow away when the wind blows at low speeds.

One way to prevent having to pay an incredible cost again and again after hail storms is to look into Minneapolis hail damage insurance.DSC00575-300x225 Big Lake MN Hail Damage July 1 2011

What is Minneapolis hail damage insurance?

If you’re not sure what Minneapolis hail damage insurance is, it is insurance that helps you pay for damage that is done to your roof due to hail storms. This Minnesota insurance will save you a lot of money in roof repairs and replacement.

But if you don’t think you need Minneapolis hail damage insurance, think again. Here are some myths and facts surrounding hail damage:

  • “There must not be any damage since no shingles are missing.” The truth behind this statement is that shingles don’t have to be missing. The only way they will be is if the wind blew the right way during the hail storm.
  • “If I don’t have a leak, my roof must be fine.” All you need is for a hail storm to cause small cracks in your shingles. Those cracks grow over time and can cause leakage years down the road.
  • “My roof is brand new and has a manufacturer’s warranty.” Although the manufacturer’s warranty may still be in place, hail damage is always excluded from the warranty.
  • “I don’t have to file an insurance claim if there is very little damage.” If a Minnesota roofing contractor tells you that there is very little damage, you still are able to file a claim because damage is damage.
  • “But my rates will increase if I file a claim.” Why have the insurance if you’re not going to file a claim to fix your roof? Your rates may rise, but rates rise eventually no matter what. Instead of paying your premium to pay for everyone else’s claims, make sure you make a claim when you need to.
  • “My insurance will be canceled if I file a claim.” There are laws prohibiting insurance companies from doing this, so this should not be a worry.

After the storm

Call 763-746-4913 for detailed and Certified Hail Damage Inspection, and Insurance Restoration Action Plan.

All you need to do is call 763-746-4913 to arrange for an inspection. If you have insurance, you can take the damage information and make a claim.

Don’t be left with a bill that is bigger than what you should have to pay.

Hail Damage in Edina  Minnesota 5/10/11

Hail Damage Edina MinnesotaWhen hail damage occurs to your roof, you need to have it taken care of as soon as possible. This means calling a Minneapolis roof inspector to take care of the issue. As a matter of fact, your inspector should be an HAAG certified roof inspector and nothing less.

What HAAG certification provides

Minnesota roof inspector is HAAG certified, this means that they have the expertise and the knowledge that is needed to make an accurate damage assessment of a roof that has been struck by a hail storm. Even if you, the homeowner, does not see any damage to your roof, it doesn’t mean that your roof is not damaged. It just means you need to have a trained eye take a look for you.

Hail Damage Edina MN | Edina Hail Damage Contractor 763-746-4913

A Minnesota certified roof inspector will:

  • Know about the different types of shingles and their grades
  • Know how to distinguish bruising due to hail from bruising due to other factors
  • Will know about cedar shingles and how hail damage affects this type of roofing
  • Know about and be able to educate you on the long term effects of hail damage
  • Provide roofing assessments that are professional, independent, and impartial
  • Be able to provide your insurance company with an accurate assessment of the damage
  • Make sure you have a justified premium price for the repairs that need done to your roof
  • Have credibility all through the business

After a hail storm, the first step is to contact an inspector so that you can take the first step toward Minnesota hail damage repair. If you wait, then you could possibly end up outside of the claim window for your insurance company and long term damage could be settling in. You want the issue taken care of soon after it occurs. This will save you a lot of money down the road and a lot of headaches.

Don’t settle for less

The idea here is to not go for an inspector that is not HAAG certified because your insurance company may require a HAAG inspector anyway. When you call a Minneapolis roof inspector, you want to ask them if they are HAAG certified and make sure they prove this to you when they arrive at your home. That way you don’t have your roof inspected by a non-certified inspector and then have to turn around and have another inspection done by a Minnesota certified roof inspector. This could cost you money that you don’t really have to pay.

So remember that you want to do business with a HAAG certified roof inspector in Minnesota rather than an uncertified roof inspector. You know they have the training, the experience, and will be able to provide you with accurate information regarding your Minnesota hail damage repair.

To go ahead and have your roof inspected, call Berkeshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 so that you can have your roof inspected by a HAAG certified inspector and be on your way to having a healthy roof.

Hail Damage in Minnesota May 10th, 2011 - Hail Damage Contractor 763-746-4913

Hail Damage MN 5/10/11A common question that some people ask is, “Should I replace my roof after a hail storm.” However, there are other thoughts that run through the minds of people that include “my roof held up nicely during that storm” or “the damage couldn’t be that bad.” All of these have some sort of fallacy to them.

First of all, you do not necessarily have to replace your roof after a hail storm. Yes, some people will have to, but you may not have to. Second of all, a roof may appear to hold up nicely during a storm, but the truth is that it may have damage that you can’t spot immediately. Third, it is not a good idea to underestimate how bad potential damage may be.

Knowing the truth

If you want to know the truth, then the best thing to do is call a Minneapolis roofing contractor to evaluate the situation. There are a number of things that can go wrong with your roof during a hail storm. Here is a rundown of what can occur:

  • Mineral granules can be lost and they are very important in the health of your shingles. The areas of granule loss also help in identifying where damage has occurred on your roof.
  • When shingles are pelted by hail, the life of those shingles is automatically shortened. Hail can take the life of a shingle much faster than normal wear and tear that takes way the granules.
  • When the shingles are not taken care of as soon as the damage is noticed or soon after, further damage can occur over time, causing extensive damage to your home in other areas. Instead of Minnesota hail damage repair, you may have to have a large portion or your entire roof replaced.

Minneapolis hail damage roofing

If you currently have an old roof, having new and more flexible shingles placed onto your roof can help avoid costly repairs in the future. That is why after a hail storm you want to make sure you have a Minneapolis roofing contractor inspect your roof after each storm. However, you may wish to inspect your roof yourself directly after the storm. That way if you see damage yourself, you will know the urgency of the situation.

And keep in mind that your gutter system is also a part of your roofing in that your gutters take water away from your roof, which protects it. Hail can do major damage to your gutters, so they need to be inspected as well.

So know that although things look okay, they may not be okay. And to avoid damage in the future, Minneapolis hail damage roofing contractors can help you to take preventive measures and also repair any damage that has occurred in the past before it becomes something worse.

To have your roof looked at today and/or have your hail damaged roof repaired, call an experienced Minneapolis roofing contractor. You can call Berkshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 and have the problem taken care of as soon as possible. CALL NOW 763-746-4913.

Collecting For Hail Damage in Minnesota – July 17,2010

DSC00318-300x225 Hail Damage MN July 17, 2010 - Winning Claim ProcessHail damage claims in Minnesota are one of the most common types of insurance claims. What does this mean for you? A major disadvantage – your insurance company is better prepared to overcome the choice to replace your roof, siding, windows etc. Because insurance companies have years of experience in this process, your insurance company has a well developed plan of attack to minimize your settlement.

If there is obvious damage like holes or dents the process is certainly smoother. But in most cases, hail damage is not cut and dry. More often than not the decision to replace a roof comes down to the judgment call of an insurance adjuster. One thing is certain, once the adjuster decides you have little or no damage, it’s difficult to change his or her mind. To overcome this, one requires a deep understanding of the physics of hail. Specifically the wind effects on hail, general direction of the storm, size of hail stones, and relative hardness of hail stones.  Below is a basic outline to follow if you are not sure how to begin your hail damage claim process if you’re not sure what to do. If you are beyond this stage, simply use this info as a quick checklist.

Find your insurance policy.
Find the Declarations Page, and find the heading Forms and Endorsements. Review your specific policy details for wind and hail damage. Make note of your claims hotline phone number.

Report the loss.
Call the claim hotline – and have the date and time of the storm ready, along with the general areas you have damage.

Preserve the important evidence.
If possible, gather and save anything can prove important details, such as the size of hail stones. We recommend saving and freezing these just in case. Fallen tree limbs, wind driven debris is also good to accumulate to help justify damages found after clean-up.

Take photos of your property in its worst condition.
Before you clean up, take photos the mess. Take them with perspective of evident markings. Take close up photos of the debris and damage. Have two sets of prints made, the adjuster will probably take one with them.

Arrange for temporary repairs if needed.
Take the needed steps to prevent further damage or water intrusion to your property. Your insurance company will compensate you for this, as its more than likely a requirement of your insurance policy. Take every measure to temporarily repair major damage to your home. Save receipts and documentation to receive compensation.

Keep track of your time and expenses.
Keep receipts and records of your time and money spent on the clean up and or temporary repairs.

Select a qualified storm damage restoration company.

Hail Damage Minnesota July 17, 2010 – Now what?

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

Hail Damage July 17, 2010

A Minnesota hail damage claim being denied is all too common.

As most know, after the insurance company is contacted a claim is opened, a representative (hail damage adjuster) is dispatched to evaluate hail damage. This is the most important element of each hail damage restoration process. Some insurance companies have inspection methods and use fancy damage-oriented terminology to talk homeowners out of much deserved repair proceeds.

Now, most insurance companies and insurance adjusters in Minnesota are honest and ethical. But unfortunately, all to many of us know of someone who felt shorted by his or her insurance adjuster, or were the only person on the block who did not receive the needed resources for roof replacement. In other words, their hail claim was denied. Now this does not automatically mean dishonesty or ethics were involved, but it sure proves interesting.

We receive many calls from homeowners in this position. Don’t let this happen to you, but call us if it has. When the first hail damage adjuster documents his opinion that the roof needs only minor repairs or the siding’s fade is not relevant, it can be difficult to sway the end result.

However at Berkeshire Exteriors we have a vast library of proven letters and a fast system to initiate needed hail damage claim actions relative to this situation. Some of these are

Change hail damage insurance adjusters and get a fresh damage evaluation.

Re–open a closed hail damage claim and re-establish the flow of repair money.

Hail Damage Claims June 17, 2010 – Call 763-746-4913 for clear advice on what to do before you call your insurance company.

Hail damage claims can sometimes be a very ambiguous process. One insurance adjuster may show and fund a claim and loosen the purse strings, when the next one may come out and find every reason not to. Words like “mechanical damage, delamification, defect, blisters is commonly what they hide behind. What should the strategy be, not knowing which adjuster will show up?

Hail Damage MN Photo June 17, 2010How to negotiate roof repair claims MN is a fascinating concept. Why does one homeowner get a roof replacement settlement by their insurance company and another next door not? Are certain insurance companies more liberal than other? These are common questions asked in the Minnesota storm season. Here is something to note.

All insurance adjusters are not the same. Some are local staff adjusters, and some are independent national adjusters contracted to adjust claims when local claim adjuster resources are exhausted. The two differ greatly. Generally speaking, local claims adjusters are salaried employees of the insurance company, with a broader license for automotive, fire, property and casualty claims. Local adjusters tend to be more conservative when adjusting damage, and are more likely to pay for repairs than replacement.  Conversely, independent adjusters tend to be paid a commission or percentage of the damage they find, and are more liberal in their adjusting decisions. Independent adjusters seem to be more knowledgeable specifically in hail and wind damage identification as their focus. No worry -

For a no hassle conversation with Minnesota’s leading (proven by unmatched insurance funding numbers when claims negotiated his way ) Haag Certified Roof Inspector call 763-746-4913. You will be given a clear process to maximize your claim, a no BS approach in preparing your call to the insurance company, and the proven language to use with the adjuster that will set the stage for maximum insurance funding.

Unrealistic expectations are another reason for frustration. Do you want to know if you have legitimate hail damage? Are you at a point where you need honest info and a path to follow moving ahead?

Give us a call. You will be rewarded with a professional and polite approach. We call a spade a spade. We will not hesitate to send our staff  Haag Engineering Certified Roof Inspector MN to evaluate your situation if needed, and give you good information about your hail damage situation.

Minnesota hail damage repair, Minneapolis roofing company, roof replacement in Minnesota

Minneapolis Storm Damage

Hail Damage MN June 2010When a severe hail storm blow through Minnesota, the first question a homeowner may ask is, “should I replace my roof?” The answer to this question is that you may not have to as long as you’re dealing with the right Minneapolis roofing company.

You see, just as hail comes in all different shapes and sizes, the damage occurs in all different shapes and sizes. It may also be sporadic in that hail hit your roof all over, but only certain areas sustained damage. If that’s the cause, then Minnesota hail damage repair should be enough to take care of the issue.

However, when the damage is too extensive to just repair spots, then roof replacement will be needed

Roof replacement Minneapolis

Roof replacement in Minnesota is something that many have had to do. They either do it because they’ve had to deal with extensive hail damage or they have done it because their roof is old and they want to avoid having to contend with severe hail damage.

You see, Minneapolis hail damage can become so severe that a roof can literally become punctured. This means that the hail can penetrate through the plywood that is underneath your shingles. In this case, you have more than just roofing to replace, but a piece of the top of your home. How this damage occurs depends on the pitch and the slop of your roof. If the impact is direct, then there is a good chance that damage will occur. If the impact is not direct and the hail “skims” or “deflects” off of the roof based on its slope, there is a possibility that there won’t be as much damage. Wind also plays a role in this. If the wind is blowing the hail, that can have an impact on how it hits your roof and how much damage it causes.

But no matter whether you’re told you need total roof replacement or that you simply need repairs, you will need to consult with your insurance company regarding what your policy says about hail and see how your insurance company defines hail damage. Some do not define hail damage as true hail damage unless the roof has been punctured in some way.

Roof repair MPLS

Of course roof repair is going to be cheaper than completely repairing your roof. A Minneapolis roofing company will tell you whether you can get by with a repair. If you can, you may still wish to consult with your insurance company and see what you can have done. You may be able to receive full or partial coverage for your damage. No matter the outcome, Minnesota hail damage repair can be done in the way that best fits your particular budget. Simply tell your Minneapolis roofing company what you can and cannot afford. You can only work with what you have, so make sure you have as many options reviewed with you as possible.

In order to get started in determining whether or not you need your roof replaced, call Berkeshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 so that you can receive a fair estimate and opinion about what needs to be done to make your roof right again.

Woodbury Hail Damage Roofer

The season for hail damage seems to have left its mark  in Woodbury,  Minnesota. Because of this, individuals have to call a Woodbury hail damage roofer to assess the damage and then arrange for repairs on that roof or a complete roof replacement. Eventually, the hail damage that has occurred will take such a toll on the roof that it will need to be replaced anyway, but that could be when the damage goes beyond the shingles.

So the main question here is whether or not hail damage in Woodbury MN could result in you having to have your roof replaced?

What to look for:

After a hail storm, it is a good idea to call a Woodbury roofer for the fact that the sooner you have the damage taken care of, the less damage other areas of your home may see. This also means that you’ll be less likely to sustain even further damage to those areas that have seen slight damage the next time a hail storm rolls around.

If you decide to take a look yourself before calling a Woodbury roofer to take a look, you want to look for bruising on the surface of the shingle. You also want to see if the asphalt on asphalt shingles is exposed due to granules that are missing. You also want to:

•    Take a look at your downspouts and see if granulation has accumulated there.
•    Your shingles will have soft spots where the impact took place.
•    Metal air vents may be damaged significantly.
•    Your gutters and the siding to your home may also be damaged.

You want to look at all of these areas of damage, but make sure you call a Minnesota roofing contractor even if you do not see signs of damage because the signs can be as small as a crack in the shingle that is hard to see. These cracks can ultimately lead to leaks.

How fast should you take action?

As for how fast you should take action, you should call a contractor as soon as the hail storm has left its hail damage in Woodbury to collect for hail damage. Don’t hesitate for a moment because time is money in these situations. Although the main aspect of your roof that may be affected is its longevity, it has been weakened by the storm. Even if it is just your air vents and gutters that have sustained bad damage, they need to be taken care of as well because they are important parts of your roofing.

You also want to call your insurance company and see what your homeowner’s insurance policy says about roofing. You may also wish to look into hail damage insurance so that you can specifically have hail damage covered.

In the meantime, make sure you contact Berkeshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 to take the first step toward taking care of your hail damage. You don’t want to wait too long or you will have more than your roof to worry about as it rains and begins to snow as we progress through the seasons.

Hail damage roofer in Woodbury, Woodbury roofer, Minnesota roofing contractor

When it comes to hail damage, it seems that different people have different perspectives on the matter. However, there have been studies on hail damage that plagues Minnesota and states all over the country each and every year. Most of these studies are conducted by the insurance companies, which in turn, does result in a different perspective. For instance, you may hear a different definition of hail damage to a roof. This is so money can be saved on the insurance company’s end. This may result in denied insurance claims and the need to have a new roof without any money to pay for it.

Fortunately, this is not the case with all insurance companies. You can call a hail damage roofer in Woodbury and have them inspect the roof and tell you your options so that you can take the information back to your insurance company.

But let’s take a look at what your Woodbury roofer, the manufacturer of your roofing, and the insurance companies have to say about hail damage.

A Minnesota roofing contractor

No matter where you are in Minnesota, whether it is Woodbury MN or elsewhere, a Minnesota roofing contractor will explain to you why it is you need to have hail damaged roofing fixed or replaced as soon as possible. Even if your roof is not leaking now, it may leak in the future.

Some may say that this is just a way for a hail damage roofer in Woodbury to make money, but that’s not true. The idea is to work within your budget so that you can have a leak free roof without having to pay your life’s savings.

The manufacturer

Manufacturers exclude hail damage from their warranties. However, the hail does have to be greater than ¾ of an inch before the warranty is void, but that is a very small size and most hail that impacts Minnesota is larger than ¾ of an inch. In the case of asphalt shingles, it is because hail of that size will remove the granules from the shingle and expose the asphalt bedding. UV rays can then get to the asphalt, as can the weather.

The insurance company

In the case of what the insurance company may say, there are insurance companies that do not define a roof as being damaged by hail unless it has been punctured. Again, this is not the case with all insurance companies. You can learn more about this from your Woodbury roofer. However, the idea is to call your Woodbury roofer and have them inspect the roof after the storm and tell you the extent of the damage.

A hail damage roofer in Woodbury MN can look at your roofing and tell you the difference between hail damage and wear and tear. You can then take the information to your insurance company and see about having part or all of the cost of repair taken care of. If not, the Minnesota roofing contractor will work with you according to your budget.

So to get started, call Berkeshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 and have your damage assessed immediately.

Twin Cities Hail Damage Roofer

Twin Cities hail damage, hail damage roofer in the Twin Cities, Minnesota roofer

What truly constitutes hail damage? This is a good question because there are so many different variations of hail damage. Some don’t consider it damage unless there are holes in a roof. Some consider it damage if there is the slightest dent in the roofing. Nevertheless, it is important to note that anything that compromises the quality of your roofing is damaged. If it is dented, scratched, or punctured, that is not good. Your hail damage roofer in the Twin Cities will tell you this.

Let’s take Asphalt shingles in Minnesota, for example. They are the most commonly used type of roofing because of their affordability and they are aesthetically appealing to your home. However, they can take on an amazing amount of damage due to a hail storm.

The parts of an asphalt shingle

When Twin Cities hail damage happens, there are different parts of the shingle that can be compromised. Those parts are the granules that protect the asphalt from UV and weather damage. The asphalt is also backed by a fiber glass backing.

Each part of the shingle is very important. For instance, the fiber glass backing may be on the bottom, but it is designed to make the asphalt mat last longer. And not only do the granules look nice and protect the asphalt, but they are also fire resistant. That way if your neighbor’s home catches fire, you have a lesser chance of your roof catching fire. But if you have areas on your roof that are missing those important granules because of hail damage, your fire risk increases.

Furthermore, when you have granules missing, the UV rays and the elements simply wear on those shingles. Eventually they are no good and you may experience leaks. This can cause the plywood under the shingles to become weak from saturation and can cause an even bigger roofing issue that will be more expensive. A Minnesota roofer can come to your home to prevent this as long as you call after a hail storm occurs.

This shows how even the slightest alteration in your shingles can result in long term problems that you don’t know about until it is too late.

The size of hail

The size of the hail also plays a very important role in how much damage occurs to your shingles. Most manufacturers state that the warranty is void if hail larger than ¾ of an inch strikes the roof and damages it. This is because the manufacturers truly can’t control hail and it would not be economically feasible for them to fit the bill for it every time hail hits the Twin Cities or any suburb in Minnesota.  However, you can call a hail damage roofer in the twin cities and take their assessment to your insurance company.
To get started, call Berkeshire Exteriors to take care of your hail damage now. It doesn’t matter the size of the hail or how long ago it occurred. The sooner you call, the better off your roof and your home.

Minnesota Wood Shake Roofing Damage

Wood Roof Shingle Problems | Minnesota Wood Shake Roofing Damage

Wood shingles and shakes in the United States most commonly are manufactured from western red cedar. This specific cedar is characterized by its fine and even grain, high strength to weight ratio, relatively low moisture-induced expansion and contraction, and durability. Other woods such as northern white cedar, aspen, red oak, redwood, and yellow pine also are used to produce shingles and shakes. Unfortunately, these woods (for roofing purposes) are of lesser quality than western red cedar.

Cedar Shake Texture MN

Western Red Cedar

The manufacturer of Minnesota wood roofing begins with the trees logged from the forest. The trees are sawn into sections (the length of the finished product) which then are split into more manageable blocks (pie- shaped sections), called “bolts.” Boards or blanks for shingles and taper-sawn shakes are sawn from bolts and then run diagonally through the band saw. Blanks for hand-split and re-sawn shakes are split from bolts and similarly run obliquely through the band saw to produce split faces and sawn backs. Taper-split and straight-split shakes are split from blots and have both split faces and split backs. Shakes, the years past, were hand split with a froe and mallet. Now, almost all shakes are split off the bolts with a hydraulic machine called a guillotine.
In order to recognize causes of damage to wood roofing, it is helpful to understand the properties of wood itself. One should understand the manufacturing process and proper wood shingle or Minnesota wood shake roofing installation procedures so the problems of both can easily be recognized. Additionally, one must learn to recognize the effects of normal aging as well as the effects of natural and ma made perils. It is often as important to understand what something is as it is to understand what something is not.
Wood shingles or shakes, the weathering of a wood roof, undergo physical changes during there intended lifetimes. The wood roofing ages naturally (weathers) due to exposure to the elements and becomes older. Wood defects and common installation deficiencies can promote more rapid deterioration. Sudden damage reducing the water-shedding capacity and/or the expected long term serviceability or a roof could be due to natural (wind or hail) as well as manmade (install etc.) causes.

Hail Damage Wood Shingles and Cedar Shake Roofing Hail Damage

Hail Caused Damage – Natural Versus Artificial

Wood shingles and MN wood shakes are damaged by hail when the impact energy of a striking hailstone is sufficient to break the wood, thereby compromising one ply of the roofing and producing two narrow shingles (or shakes) each secured by only one fastener. A split may reduce the service of the roof, hence, constitutes damage. Occasionally, hailstones will puncture wood roofing and wood shake units.
Hailstones vary in size, shape, and hardness. Thus, hail impact-caused marks have various sizes, shapes, and depths. Additionally, the pattern of marks across surfaces illustrates the random nature of falling hail. Generally, during the hail storm, the larger the hail, the fewer and farther apart the markings are on the roof.
Generally speaking, hail is not selective. Hail impacts are of varying size, shape, depth, will also be found on metal vents, flashing, and or air conditioning units, are in the same direction as the nature of the damage on the roof. Due to hail fall angles, impacts should be consistent from a directional standpoint. Meaning, windward slopes typically sustain more damage than leeward slopes. The extents of damage to roof slopes facing different directions can be quite different if the hail is wind driven.

Cedar Shake Roof Damage

Hail Damage To Cedar Shake

Artificial MN Wood Shake Damage – Intentional Wood Shake Damage

Naturally occurring hail has characteristics which result in damage distinctly different from deliberately inflicted mechanical damage. Factors which separate natural from deliberately caused impact marks include the size of individual marks as well as the distribution of the marls on a wood roof or wood shake roofing system. Intentionally inflicted damage typically involves impact marks of constant size, shape, pattern, depth etc. The bottom portions of marks made with a metal object are smooth and shiny – a condition that ice or falling hail, made of material much softer than metal. Intentional damage is made in the same spot, on separate shingles. In this case, it’s common that no damage supporting size, direction, or relative hardness is found on adjacent metal vents or soft metal in the damaged region.

Minnesota hail damage repair, Minneapolis roofing company, roof replacement in Minnesota

Minneapolis Storm DamageWhen a severe hail storm blow through Minnesota, the first question a homeowner may ask is, “should I replace my roof?” The answer to this question is that you may not have to as long as you’re dealing with the right Minneapolis roofing company.

You see, just as hail comes in all different shapes and sizes, the damage occurs in all different shapes and sizes. It may also be sporadic in that hail hit your roof all over, but only certain areas sustained damage. If that’s the cause, then Minnesota hail damage repair should be enough to take care of the issue.

However, when the damage is too extensive to just repair spots, then roof replacement will be needed

Roof replacement Minneapolis

Roof replacement in Minnesota is something that many have had to do. They either do it because they’ve had to deal with extensive hail damage or they have done it because their roof is old and they want to avoid having to contend with severe hail damage.

You see, Minneapolis hail damage can become so severe that a roof can literally become punctured. This means that the hail can penetrate through the plywood that is underneath your shingles. In this case, you have more than just roofing to replace, but a piece of the top of your home. How this damage occurs depends on the pitch and the slop of your roof. If the impact is direct, then there is a good chance that damage will occur. If the impact is not direct and the hail “skims” or “deflects” off of the roof based on its slope, there is a possibility that there won’t be as much damage. Wind also plays a role in this. If the wind is blowing the hail, that can have an impact on how it hits your roof and how much damage it causes.

But no matter whether you’re told you need total roof replacement or that you simply need repairs, you will need to consult with your insurance company regarding what your policy says about hail and see how your insurance company defines hail damage. Some do not define hail damage as true hail damage unless the roof has been punctured in some way.

Roof repair MPLS

Of course roof repair is going to be cheaper than completely repairing your roof. A Minneapolis roofing company will tell you whether you can get by with a repair. If you can, you may still wish to consult with your insurance company and see what you can have done. You may be able to receive full or partial coverage for your damage. No matter the outcome, Minnesota hail damage repair can be done in the way that best fits your particular budget. Simply tell your Minneapolis roofing company what you can and cannot afford. You can only work with what you have, so make sure you have as many options reviewed with you as possible.

In order to get started in determining whether or not you need your roof replaced, call Berkeshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 so that you can receive a fair estimate and opinion about what needs to be done to make your roof right again.

A common question that some people ask is, “Should I replace my roof after a hail storm in MN?” However, there are other thoughts that run through the minds of people that include “my roof held up nicely during that storm” or “the damage couldn’t be that bad.” All of these have some sort of fallacy to them.

First of all, you do not necessarily have to replace your roof after a hail storm. Yes, some people will have to, but you may not have to. Second of all, a roof may appear to hold up nicely during a storm, but the truth is that it may have damage that you can’t spot immediately. Third, it is not a good idea to underestimate how bad potential damage may be.

Knowing the truth

If you want to know the truth, then the best thing to do is call a Minneapolis roofing contractor to evaluate the situation. There are a number of things that can go wrong with your roof during a hail storm. Here is a rundown of what can occur:

Mineral granules can be lost and they are very important in the health of your shingles. The areas of granule loss also help in identifying where damage has occurred on your roof.

When shingles are pelted by hail, the life of those shingles is automatically shortened. Hail can take the life of a shingle much faster than normal wear and tear that takes way the granules.

When the shingles are not taken care of as soon as the damage is noticed or soon after, further damage can occur over time, causing extensive damage to your home in other areas. Instead of Minnesota hail damage repair, you may have to have a large portion or your entire roof replaced.
Minneapolis hail damage roofing

If you currently have an old roof, having new and more flexible shingles placed onto your roof can help avoid costly repairs in the future. That is why after a hail storm you want to make sure you have a Minneapolis roofing contractor inspect your roof after each storm. However, you may wish to inspect your roof yourself directly after the storm. That way if you see damage yourself, you will know the urgency of the situation.

And keep in mind that your gutter system is also a part of your roofing in that your gutters take water away from your roof, which protects it. Hail can do major damage to your gutters, so they need to be inspected as well.

So know that although things look okay, they may not be okay. And to avoid damage in the future, Minneapolis hail damage roofing contractors can help you to take preventive measures and also repair any damage that has occurred in the past before it becomes something worse.

To have your roof looked at today and/or have your hail damaged roof repaired, call an experienced Minneapolis roofing contractor. You can call Berkshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 and have the problem taken care of as soon as possible.

Commercial Roofing Contractor MN, Commercial Hail Damage

Green Roof MNCommercial hail damage in Minnesota, Minnesota hail damage, Minneapolis hail damage repair, Minnesota roofer

Not only do homes sustain hail damage, but businesses do too. Hail is responsible for over $1 billion in damage in the United States alone on an annual basis. This comes from an average of 3,000 hail storms each year and some of these hail storms occur in Minnesota, resulting in a lot of damage there as well.

While most commercial roofs are designed to withstand hail damage, there are times in which severe hail may occur and Minneapolis hail damage repair is needed. Fortunately, a Minnesota roofer can look at the roof and determine what is damage done by hail and which is damage that has been done by something else. They have a trained eye and can tell you what damage belongs to what.

What to expect

Whether or not you suspect that hail damage has occurred to your commercial building, it is important to call a Minnesota roofer to take a look at the roof to make sure no damage occurred. If damage has occurred, then your options will be reviewed with you.

First of all, you may wish to speak to your insurance company about your hail damage and what exactly your policy covers. This is very important for you to be familiar with so that you know what to expect.

After you have talked to the insurance company or reviewed your policy, you can then proceed to your next step in fixing your Minnesota hail damage. This can include simply having the damaged areas fixed or can include having to replace the entire roof. No one wants to have to replace the entire roof, but the good news is that a Minnesota roofer can provide you with a better roof than you had before so that it will stand up better to the next hail storm that blows through the area.

Types of commercial roofing

If you have to replace your roof due to Minnesota hail damage, there are 5 types of commercial roofing that exist. You can go for the traditional asphalt shingle, which tends to be more vulnerable to hail damage. You can also choose from metal roofing, wood shakes, slate shingles, and tile roofing. Some of these hold up better than others. For instance, a commercial establishment may be more likely to want metal roofing. If tiles are desired, concrete tiles are the best when standing up to hail. Slate has also known to have some durability against hail, but wood shakes could become quite damaged when the hail hits them hard enough.

So make sure that you call a Minnesota roofer to take a look at your commercial hail damage so that you can determine what your next step needs to be. Once you know your options, check with your insurance and your budget to see what to do next. Call Berkeshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 to take that first step in the process. Don’t wait too long or permanent damage could easily become a part of your commercial roofing system.

Hail Damage MHail Damage MNN August 8, 2009  ( Hail Damage MN 8/8/09) was relatively widespread. With the Weather Channel loud and the sirens blarring, it is easy to think that hail damage MN may be easy to find. But, was it as widespread as television indicated?

Finding a Minnesota Hail Damage Contractor to help evaluate the damage to your property is crucial…

Minnesota hail damage contractor, hail damage in Minnesota, hail damage contractor in Minnesota.

Finding a Minnesota hail damage contractor can be quite the daunting task because you want the best for your roof. You want a company that is honest, will do their job when they say they will do it, and will provide you with the options that you need to have the best for your roof possible.

So how do you find the best hail damage contractor in Minnesota? Well, here are some things that you want to look for:

•    You want to see a track record. This means you want to see the company provide you with proof that they have done a good job in the past. This may consist of showing you testimonials or you may be given the contact information of past clients so that you can contact them and ask about their experience.

•    You need a Minnesota hail damage contractor who will be able to inspect your roof and adequately tell you what is wrong with it. This means not telling you that you need a new roof when all you need is repairs. You want honesty. The contractor needs to be more about doing a good job than trying to make the money. Someone just wanting the money is literally toying with your home.

•    You do want good rates, but you also want quality. By reviewing the above two points and then looking at price, you can easily decide if the service is worth the money to take care of your hail damage in Minnesota. Remember that the cheapest is not always the best. The saying “you get what you pay for” certainly applies to this situation.

•    You want variety in roofing  materials. This means that you should be able to decide the roofing type that you want. However, you want a roofing material that will stand up to the next hail storm and not cause you to have to have repairs again. For instance, you should be able to ask the hail damage contractor in Minnesota about Class 4 roofing. This is the closest to hail resistant as you’re going to get. You can then discuss prices and make your decision from there.

All-in-all, what you choose is also based on certain areas that concern you the most. You may be concerned about liability insurance so that if one of the employees of the hail damage contractor in Minnesota is injured, you are not held liable for the injuries. This could be quite expensive for you when you simply didn’t know any better, so this is an important factor to consider too.

Fortunately, you don’t have to go too far to find that hail damage contractor in Minnesota. Call Berkeshire Exteriors at 763-746-4913 and have your hail damage situation taken care of quickly and in a professional manner. Your roof is a rather large investment and you most certainly don’t want to have to replace it more than you have to. You don’t want to have to repair it more than you have to either.

Minnesota hail proof roofs, hail proof roof in Minnesota, Minnesota roof repair, Minnesota roofer

Do You Offer Hail Proof Roofs?

Hail storms are vicious. Since 1980, there have been approximately 3,000 hail storms recorded per year around the country. Minnesota definitely gets its fair share of that 3,000. And amongst that 3,000 are cars, farms, homes, and various other items that are extremely damaged by these forceful storms.

But what seems to plague most people is damage to their roofs. This damage can range from minor bruising of the shingles to holes in the shingles and even the plywood underneath the shingles. So this brings about the question of whether or not there are Minnesota hail proof roofs?

Hail proof?

There are different classes of roofs. These classes range from 1 to 4 with 4 being the highest class. When you talk to Berkeshire Exteriors, ask about class 4 roofs and how to have a class 4 placed on your home so that you can better withstand the hail damage MN.

But the truth is that there is no roof that is fully hail proof. The manufacturer will set a limit on how large the hail can be before the warranty is void. Once the warranty is void, you will not be able to make a claim to the manufacturer. However, you do have a Minnesota roofer that will work with you, despite the fact that Minnesota hail proof roofs do not exist.

So what does this mean?

This means that there is not a single hail proof roof in Minnesota. Despite the fact that some manufacturer’s will advertise that their roofing is hail proof, it is time to be realistic.

Take this into consideration: If hail the size of golf balls comes down, can you expect anything in its path to not be damaged? Look at the trees in the vicinity and see how the hail damages the trees. If the trees can’t withstand it, then perhaps a roof may not either. However, the roof may do a little better.

Questions to ask a Minnesota roofer

When you call Berkeshire Exteriors, ask anything you feel is important. For the different types of roofs, you may want to ask:

•    What is the best protection I can get?
•    What is the largest hail that the different roof classes can handle?
•    What is the cost per class?
•    How long will the process take?

And you can see if a simple repair will suffice before making the big decision to replace your entire roof. That is certainly a big investment, especially if your insurance will not cover the damage or will not cover it in its entirety. This does occur sometimes, so be sure you know your insurance policy and what it says about hail damage. Different insurance companies define hail damage differently.

So give Berkeshire Exteriors a call at 763-746-4913 to hail proof your roof as much as possible. Although you may not be able to protect your roof 100%, you should be able to come quite close with the right kind of roofing. All you have to do is ask.

Don’t consult just anyone with a truck and ladder claiming to be a roofing expert, trust and consult a decorated Minnesota Roofing Contractor, and a local Hail Damage MN expert. Consult Berkeshire Exteriors today. (763) 746-4913

Hail Damage MNHail Contractor in MN

Hail Damage MNHail damage mn roof inspections are happening around the Twin Cities these days. Much like the last several years, the summer storm season has produced hail damage throughout the metro. But here is something you may not consider if you are faced with the feeling and perhaps the saved hail in your freezer as a keep sake.

Have a hail damage mn from a reputable restoration company evaluate the scope of your damage before an insurance adjuster arrives. This is important for two primary reasons. First, a person whom looks at hail damage regularly can see things that others cannot. Some damage is obvious, some is not. Second, a contractor will know the approximate cost of the needed repairs and that written data can be cross referenced with the insurance adjusters estimate. Often times hail damage adjusters are from out of state and not as familiar with local labor costs, construction methods and local construction codes.

Equally significant, know your current home mortgage information and other primary lien holders against the damaged property. The adjuster will ask this, and cross reference the info you give with what is on record at the insurance company. If they don’t have the most recent or correct information, a check to begin the repairs may be written with the wrong lender as an endorsee.  Imagine the headache of trying to get a signature on a check at a location your no longer on record or no longer in their system of borrowers. Also, a mortgage not current can also slow the payment process.

Have Berkeshire Exteriors on your hail damage speed dial. You will receive the helpful guidance you seek through the process of storm damage restoration.

How To Negotiate Roof Repair Claims MN

Friday, July 31st, 2009

Hail Damage MNHow to negotiate roof repair claims is a fascinating concept. Why does one homeowner get a roof replacement settlement by their insurance company and another next door not? Are certain insurance companies more liberal than other? These are common questions asked in the Minnesota storm season. Here is something to note.

All insurance adjusters are not the same. Some are local staff adjusters, and some are independent national adjusters contracted to adjust claims when local claim adjuster resources are exhausted. The two differ greatly. Generally speaking, local claims adjusters are salaried employees of the insurance company, with a broader license for automotive, fire, property and casualty claims. Local adjusters tend to be more conservative when adjusting damage, and are more likely to pay for repairs than replacement.  Conversely, independent adjusters tend to be paid a commission or percentage of the damage they find, and are more liberal in their adjusting decisions. Independent adjusters seem to be more knowledgeable specifically in hail and wind damage identification as their focus.

Unrealistic expectations are another reason for frustration. Do you want to know if you have legitimate hail damage? Are you at a point where you need honest info and a path to follow moving ahead?

Give us a call. You will be rewarded with a professional and polite approach. We call a spade a spade. We will not hesitate to send our staff  Haag Engineering Certified Roof Inspector to evaluate your situation if needed, and give you good information about your hail damage situation.

Hail Damage hits Holdingford MN hard July 14th 2009.Hail Damage MN

Hail damage claims are one of the most common types of insurance claims in MN. What does this mean if you were in the path of the Holdingford Hail Storm? A major disadvantage – your insurance company is better prepared to overcome the choice to replace your roof, siding, windows, etc., because insurance companies have years of experience in this process. Your insurance company has a well developed plan of attack to minimize your settlement. Don’t let this happen to you!

If there is obvious damage like holes or dents to your homes exterior the process is certainly smoother. But in most cases, hail damage is not cut and dry. More often than not the decision to replace a roof comes down to the judgment call of an insurance adjuster. One thing is certain, once the adjuster decides you have little or no damage, it’s difficult to change his or her mind.

To overcome this, one requires a solid understanding of the physics of falling hail stones. Specifically the wind effects of falling hail, hail directional patterns, size of hail and hail stone damage thresholds, and relative hardness of hail stone impacts. Berkeshire Exteriors is unique in that we hold industry specific engineering certifications in hail damage restoration and identification.

As a reputable MN Hail Damage Contractor, we  currently have  hail claim specialists in Holdingford MN, and are ready to help our fellow Minnesota residents navigate the hail damage mn claim process.

Hail Claim Denied Trade Secrets

Monday, July 6th, 2009

Hail Damage Claim DeniedSometimes a denied hail claim in MN is appropriate, and sometimes it isn’t. A denied storm damage claim in Minnesota is a good reason to locate a local company that has a system of managing a denied claim, and a specific action plan to honestly and professionally evaluate your individual circumstances for merit. Most hail damage claim denials are made verbally. You are seeking payment for damages incurred – the adjuster says no. There are also certain instances where coverage is limited, which again is usually stated verbally – in other words a storm damage claim denial or partial denial.

Here are a few industry trade secrets. Expressed another way, here is a sneak peek into to some insurance adjusters “hidden “agendas. For additional specific hail claim denied strategies, call us for a no obligation conversation to get the ball rolling.

Whether it is an independent adjuster or staff adjuster, their game plan is to close your claim quickly for the least amount of money and still make you feel satisfied. Here is an adjusters typical “hidden” agenda.

Gain the homeowners trust quickly.

Try to inspect and settle the claim, before the homeowner gets a contractors estimate.

Avoid agreeing to match the shingles when partially repairing or only patching a roof.

Try not to pay for all venting and roofing system components.

Pay to clean or repair items instead of replacing them.

Inspect as many homes per day as possible.

Pay the least amount the homeowner is willing to accept.

If the homeowner is not happy, try to compromise on some fronts, avoiding a full payout.

Use fancy verbiage to confuse or industry lingo to overwhelm the insured with useless details.

Many adjusters are wonderful representatives of insurance companies. Honest, ethical, and very good at that they do in terms of consistently evaluating damage for exactly what it is. Some however, have a hidden agenda. Don’t settle for a denied claim, we will help you determine if your claim has merit. Trust a company with a plan. Trust Berkeshire Exteriors.

Choosing a Roofing Contractor in Blaine MN is important. Replacing your roof  in Blaine MN can greatly increase curb appeal, enhance important circularity attic venting, and rejuvenate the most important water protection element of your home’s exterior. However, the process of replacing a roof in Minnesota is not simply cut and dry. Many essential elements within the process will either yield a perfectly finished product, or years of roof related problems and troubling circumstances.  The following is a key concept to consider when choosing a Minnesota Roofing Contractor. Need a local and reputable Blaine roofing contractor, give us a call.

Understand who is liable if someone falls off your roof during construction.

Don’t assume laborers carry the needed insurance to protect you if someone falls and gets seriously hurt. It’s true the MN Roofing General Contractor will have at least the required minimum amount of insurance to maintain a license, but nothing is assured in terms of workers performing work on behalf of the Roofing Contractor in Blaine MN. If a hired roofing crew member falls and gets seriously hurt you may be held liable. Roof related falls are rare when proper safety standards are followed, but an inexperienced roofing crew or a dangerous accident can happen at any time. Do not trust just anyone on your roof, especially those not adequately insured.

Having an approach to organize key documentation can also be useful at key times throughout the hail damage restoration system.

Know the exact storm date and approximate time your home or business incurred the storm damages. Your insurance company will ask you this, so it’s handy to have it written down when you call. Also have a general idea of what has damage. You will be asked to name the general areas that you have hai damage or wind damage, like the roof, siding, gutters etc. Equally significant, it’s smart to mention both wind and hail damage as this information will appear on your insurance adjuster’s service sheet. This tends to yield a more detailed and careful evaluation by your adjuster due to wind damage being less evident, and harder to identify quickly.

Minnesota Roofing Contractors are busy these days. Much like road construction’s heavy load in the summer, the Minnesota Roofing industry is buzzing as well. When Minnesota homeowners consider roof replacement, there are several critical things to know before the process begins.

Improper nail installation techniques will void the shingle manufacturer’s warranty. Don’t trust just any Minnesota Roofing Contractor.

Too few nails installed per shingle, deferred nail gun maintenance, inadequate nail gun air pressure, and nails not secured in the correct location on the shingle are common errors we find when called upon to repair improperly installed shingles. Too few nails per shingle affects wind rating and wind tolerance. Inadequate nail gun maintenance affects the consistency and performance of nailing patters, and commonly leaves nails installed not flush into the wood underlayment causing rubbing and marring of the shingle underside. Inadequate nail gun pressure leaves nails loose and promotes severe nail popping. Nails driven into the asphalt sealing strip will prevent shingles from bonding and sealing over time as required. These conditions are common precursors to significant damage not covered under insurance policies or manufacturers warranties. This is why a dependable craftsmanship warranty is extremely important.

The Minnesota Hail Damage season is in full swing, but with without many MN Hail Damage areas or large pockets of hail damage to Minnesota homes. If your home or business has been affected by hail storms from last year or years previous, there are important factors to consider before you hire a contractor. Here is one major factor to consider before you hire a hail damage roofing contractor.

Only hire a “genuinely local” MN hail damage repair firm. A local company is not what it used to be. Make sure the company you select is genuinely local, in the following five ways. First, they have not been bought by a national storm chasing company for use of their Minnesota General Contractors License. Second, they are based in Minnesota, with a permanent business location in the Twin Cities. Third, they have their own Minnesota based warranty and repair division. Fourth, they manage their business from inside the State of Minnesota. Lastly, make sure the “genuinely local” company will handle all of the needed repairs. Too often large national storm chasing companies will appear local to win your business, and then do not follow through to the end leaving many headaches in between.

Correctly tearing off the old roofing system lays the ground work for a good install. Roof tear off MN.

Removing the old shingles and roofing components is an important part of the roof replacement. But beyond the mess and noise are elements important the entire process. The tear off should be done in a neat and organized way, with the main objective being surface preparation. Not overly deep to damage the underlayment, but assertive enough to remove sealed roofing membranes.  Improperly discarded and or tossed shingles and nails can damage siding, gutters, and scratch windows. An unorganized method of removing shingles commonly leaves unnecessary collateral damage. Remaining nails not completely removed or not driven flush into the underlayment prevents a smooth surface for new material install. There should be an organized plan as to the direction of the tear off, method of removal, and refuse container positioning. The removal of the shingles is a hard and labor intensive process. It must be organized, orderly, and have much thought put into the preparation for the new surface.

Having a hail damage claim denied in MN is commonly one thing: FRUSTRATING! When false expectations are given, or when an unscrupulous contractor proclaims a hail damage claim check a “done deal”,  frustrating is the word I hear most from homeowners not knowing what to do next. Or those not knowing who to believe.
Here is my take… Hail damage insurance claims are relatively predictable, in terms of claim payment or not. By that I mean that if certain conditions apply, it is highly likely an insurance adjuster will fund the claim. If certain conditions do not apply, it proves not likely that a claim will be funded. Having a solid understanding of these conditions is my skill. Demonstrating these conditions to insurance adjusters is my specialty.

So what’s the best angle if a claim is originally denied? Have your roof looked at by a HAAG Certified Roof Inspector. If your claim goes to arbitration, HAAG hail damage standards are the measuring stick. A HAAG Certified Roof Inspector will be able to quickly determine if the damage meets the threshold for composition shingle damage. You will know if your claim has merit or not. Knowing if your homes damage is legitimate is vital to whole process and re-opening a closed claim.

If your hail damage claim has been denied, call me. (763) 746-4913 I will provide a detailed report on what has damage and what does not. You will know in true form if your hail claim has merit.

Minnesota Hail Storm 2008

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

MN Hail Damage - MN Storm DamageIn 2008, Minnesota was hard hit by hailstorms, severe thunderstorms, even a devastating tornado in Hugo, MN. The intensity of these storms put heavy strains on the hail damage insurance companies serving Minnesota residents, some strains related to accurately adjusting hail damage, timeliness of insurance adjuster appointments and key decisions, and lack of clarity and accuracy of siding fade and siding match-testing results. The 2008 Minnesota hailstorm and storm season was not handled very well in many cases. See MN Hail Claim Denied.

This resulted in a stressful process for many MN homeowners, many of whom have restoration work still left to be completed. It was also unique that the major hailstorms hit later in the season. The resulting longer process of insurance company delays left many homeowners without repairs done through the late fall and winter season.

With spring here on the calendar, and the temperature beginning to warm up consistently, now is the time to reopen the process of insurance restoration. Hail damage repairs should not be overlooked, especially to roofing shingles and other key water shedding components.

Give Berkeshire Exteriors a call. We can re-open your closed claim if you are entitled to additional resources. We have a strategy to provide a change in your insurance adjuster if needed for a fresh opinion. We have proprietary roofing, siding, gutter, window, garage door, and painting teams standing by and ready to begin your restoration process. We can begin your project quickly, and can complete total home restorations in a matter of days.

Call us today! (763-746-4913) We are ready to help!

MN Roof Damage – Common Minnesota Roof Problems

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

Minnesota roof damage and common Minnesota roof problems are detailed below.

Weathering

Weathering is known as nature’s effect on shingles and weather enhanced deterioration of roofing system components. This includes the expanding and contracting of shingles, irregular loss of shingle granules, and negative effects on a roof’s water shedding ability. With simple maintenance and routine inspections these symptoms can be detected early and prevented from advanced stages. In Minnesota, the need for regular inspections and routine maintenance is magnified due to common seasonal storms, heavy snow loads, extreme temperature and the tendencies of vast temperature swings.

Lack of maintenance

General roof maintenance items include clearing debris from roof valleys and drainage points, checking the integrity of chimneys systems, ensuring silicone adhesion around pipes and flashing, inspecting for curling or clawing of shingles,  and ensuring proper attic ventilation. Though roofs are high and often steep, they require basic maintenance much like a lawnmower or furnace. Not every trip up on the roof will reveal any of the prior mentioned problems or others not noted, but roofs should be inspected yearly regardless. If left unattended, problems can snowball into major issues very quickly. CAUTION: Inspecting a roofing system is very dangerous. Contact us for a no obligation roof inspection.

Hail damage

With the regularity of strong thunderstorm s and hail storms in Minnesota, we commonly find storm related damage on many home’s roofing systems. Hail damage reduces the water shedding ability of roofing systems and shortens the life expectancy of shingles. Other storm related damage includes flying debris and the dragging and rubbing effects of windblown tree limbs and branches. Undetected, hail damage and storm damage can cause major water damage and quickly become a major roof problem.

Poor ventilation

Poor attic ventilation is detrimental to the life expectancy and function of roofing systems. Essentially, the temperature of attic spaces should be very close to that of the outside air temperature. This prevents common problems like ice dams, shingle curling, and shingle clawing. If the attic is overly warm or hot  in the winter, ice and snow melts too quickly and then re-freezes at the roofs eve. This causes ice damming. Ice and snow should melt at a natural rate. If the attic is overly hot in the summer, it can virtually bake the shingles like cookies on a baking sheet causing curling and clawing. Proper attic ventilation prevents these problems and allows for proper air flow and essential circulation.

Improper shingle installation

Poor shingle instillation is a common roof problem in Minnesota. Some of these commonalities include nails installed improperly on the shingle sealing strip, rubbing and marring from repeated foot traffic, scrapes and scratches from tool dragging, and cuts and scoring from cutting shingles on top of installed shingles.

Haag Certified Roof Inspector MN

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

Hail damage inspections and hail damage evaluations are common buzzwords used by contractors after a significant hailstorm in Minnesota. However, they are not just used as ploys for phone calls or terms I consider catchy, the Minnesota hail damage inspections and hail damage evaluations I provide are accurate and certified.

As a Minnesota Haag Certified Roof Inspector, my primary responsibility is accurately and consistently evaluating the fundamental results of hail damage to Minnesota structures and negotiating these points with insurance adjusters. The hail damage evaluation techniques I use determine two important results of hail damage, both of which tend to be primary reasoning behind an insurance companies decision to replace a roof after falling hail. These are 1) Determining if there is reduction in water shedding ability of the exterior envelope, and 2) Has there been a reduced service life expectancy of exterior materials due to hail stone impact.

When your original insurance adjuster’s opinion is that these conditions do not exist, it a can be hard to sway the end result. In this case, even a re-inspection does not yield a different result. This is why you do not want the insurance adjuster the only expert evaluating your structures damage from the beginning. Consider me the professional you want on your side. I will negotiate with your insurance company on your behalf.

I provide in-depth Certified Hail Damage Inspection Reports, and offer effective action plans for successful insurance claims, even if a hail claim has been denied. If you’re seeking a second option, or simply want an honest and certified storm damage evaluation give me a call. I provide accurate evaluations and fast results.

Upon receiving your Certified Hail Damage Report, you will know if your structures water shedding ability has been abruptly shortened, or your roofs service life expectancy has been jeopardized. Knowing this information and demonstrating this in detail to your insurance adjuster often is the difference between good and bad results. Let me do this for you!

My Minnesota Haag Certified Roof Inspector services are provided at no charge to clients of Berkeshire Exteriors.

I can be reached at 763-746-4913.

Minnesota Hail Claim Denied

Saturday, March 28th, 2009

Hail Damage Claim DeniedA Minnesota hail damage claim being denied is all too common.

As most know, after the insurance company is contacted a claim is opened, a representative (hail damage adjuster) is dispatched to evaluate hail damage. This is the most important element of each hail damage restoration process. Some insurance companies have inspection methods and use fancy damage-oriented terminology to talk homeowners out of much deserved repair proceeds.

Now, most insurance companies and insurance adjusters in Minnesota are honest and ethical. But unfortunately, all to many of us know of someone who felt shorted by his or her insurance adjuster, or were the only person on the block who did not receive the needed resources for roof replacement. In other words, their hail claim was denied. Now this does not automatically mean dishonesty or ethics were involved, but it sure proves interesting.

We receive many calls from homeowners in this position. Don’t let this happen to you, but call us if it has. When the first hail damage adjuster documents his opinion that the roof needs only minor repairs or the siding’s fade is not relevant, it can be difficult to sway the end result.

However at Berkeshire Exteriors we have a vast library of proven letters and a fast system to initiate needed hail damage claim actions relative to this situation. Some of these are

Change hail damage insurance adjusters and get a fresh damage evaluation.

Re–open a closed hail damage claim and re-establish the flow of repair money.

Arrange for pre-payment on your damages to expedite needed repairs.

Re-negotiate vinyl siding fade determination and delta fade evaluation.

Re-negotiate partial roof replacement determination.

Certainteed New Horizon Shangle re-inspections and accurate hail damage evaluation despite common shingle delamification.

              We are an experienced hail damage restoration and insurance negotiation firm. Let us put our results oriented experience go to work for you. Call us today (763-746-4913) and arrange for a no obligation hail damage consultation. It will include a detailed hail damage evaluation report and a clear action play for you to follow.
