What should I do if my roof claim was denied?
Start by reviewing what was inspected and what was documented. If the first review only focused on shingles, a second opinion may help check for collateral damage and other overlooked storm indicators.
How soon after a storm should collateral damage be documented?
Sooner is better. Early documentation helps capture visible damage before repairs, additional storms, oxidation, or normal wear make the evidence harder to interpret.
Do you guarantee my insurance will pay for a new roof?
No. No roofer should guarantee an insurance outcome. RAFTRx focuses on careful inspection, honest guidance, and better documentation.
Can I submit photos before scheduling?
Yes. Photos of roof damage, ceiling stains, gutters, shingles, and storm evidence can help RAFTRx understand your concern before the inspection.

Do you inspect AC fins and exterior metal?
When accessible and relevant, RAFTRx may look at exterior metal items such as A/C fins, vents, trim, gutters, downspouts, and other surfaces that can show hail impact.
Do newer roofs get hail damage too?
Yes. Newer roofs can still be damaged by large hail, wind, flying debris, improper installation, or impact to vents, gutters, flashing, and ridge areas.
Can hail damage show up later?
Some issues become more visible over time as granules loosen, bruised areas age, or water begins entering weakened spots. That is why post-storm review is useful.

Do roof inspections include photos?
When possible, photo documentation can help explain visible conditions, damage indicators, repair needs, and areas that may need closer attention.
What if I see a ceiling stain but no roof damage?
A ceiling stain can come from roof leaks, plumbing, HVAC, condensation, or flashing issues. A roof inspection helps rule in or rule out roof-related causes.

What phrase best explains the RAFTRx inspection approach?
A simple way to say it is: roofers look up; we look everywhere. RAFTRx inspects the roof and the surrounding property for overlooked storm evidence.
