That can be a reason to request a second opinion. RAFTRx can inspect your property for visible roof and collateral damage to help you understand whether important evidence was missed.

Do you help with previously denied roof claims?
Yes. RAFTRx can provide a second-opinion inspection focused on roof damage, collateral damage, photos, and organized documentation. We cannot guarantee a claim decision, but we can help identify evidence that may have been missed.
What if I am not sure when the damage happened?
You can still request an inspection. Share what you know about recent storms, when you noticed the problem, and any photos or leak symptoms you have.
What parts of the roof are checked during an inspection?
A typical inspection may include shingles, ridges, valleys, flashing, pipe boots, vents, gutters, soft metals, roof penetrations, attic signs, and interior leak evidence when accessible.
Can RAFTRx inspect roofs after heavy rain?
Yes, heavy rain can reveal leaks around valleys, flashing, vents, skylights, chimneys, and roof penetrations that were not obvious during dry weather.
Can roof vents be damaged by hail?
Yes. Roof vents, turbine vents, box vents, pipe jacks, and other metal or plastic components can crack, dent, loosen, or leak after hail and wind.
Should I file a claim before getting a roof inspection?
Many homeowners prefer to get an inspection first so they better understand whether there are visible storm indicators. RAFTRx can inspect and explain what was found before you decide next steps.
Can RAFTRx reopen my denied insurance claim?
RAFTRx does not control insurance claim decisions and does not guarantee reopening or approval. We can inspect the property, document visible storm evidence, and help you understand what may have been missed.
Can collateral damage matter if the roof damage is borderline?
It can matter because property-wide evidence may help explain that a storm affected the home. RAFTRx checks those additional areas so important details are not missed.
Are soft metal dents important during hail inspections?
Dents on gutters, vents, flashing, and other soft metals can help confirm hail impact around the property, but the shingles and full roof system still need to be reviewed.
Can you inspect my roof if another roofer already looked at it?
Yes. A second opinion is common, especially if the first roofer only inspected the roof and did not document gutters, garage doors, downspouts, vents, and other collateral damage.
