Minnesota Insurance Claims Process

Here is how the insurance claim process works:

 

Step 1: CALL EXCEL ROOFING FOR A FREE STORM DAMAGE EVALUATION

 

Step 2: CONTACT YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY TO FILE A CLAIM

  • Inform the insurance company that your home was examined by a licensed contractor and damage was found

  • Describe the type of storm damage that occurred

  • They may ask you for the date of the storm

 

Step 3: INFORM US WHEN THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER WILL BE COMING AND WE WILL MEET WITH THE  ADJUSTER TO REVIEW THE DAMAGE TO YOUR HOME

  • Excel Roofing and the insurance adjuster will inspect your property together

  • Your insurance adjuster will submit a summary report (scope of work) that will be forwarded to you

 

Step 4: FORWARD A COPY OF THE SUMMARY REPORT (SCOPE OF WORK) TO EXCEL ROOFING

  • Your insurance company will send you a summary report (scope of work) that describes the damage and itemizes costs

  • Excel Roofing will negotiate with your insurance company, on your behalf, regarding any price or quantity discrepancies; your insurance company will update the summary report as needed. Forward a copy of any revised summary reports to Excel Roofing as they become available

 

Step 5: EXCEL ROOFING WILL MEET WITH YOU TO MAKE SELECTIONS

  • You select materials, colors and sign an agreement with us

  • Together we will discuss a start date that best fits your schedule

  • Once we receive the down payment, materials are delivered and the project usually begins within 48-72 hours of delivery assuming the weather cooperates

  • Excel Roofing oversees the process; the job site will be cleaned and inspected to ensure quality and satisfaction

 

Step 6: PAYMENT BALANCE AND WARRANTY INFORMATION

  • Excel Roofing provides you and your insurance carrier a copy of your invoice (or notice of completion) when our work is complete

  • Forward final payments to Excel Roofing once the job is complete. You may need to have your Mortgage Company endorse your insurance check; this should be done without delay

  • You are responsible only for your deductible and any agreed-upon upgrades

  • You will receive all applicable Warranty documentation upon completion of work and receipt of payment in full
