This is the Oceanway page for denied roof claim help. The short version: you want a second opinion after the carrier said no or paid too little, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.
Get a written quoteHOA architectural rules from this era are strict on color and profile; get the approved product list before collecting quotes. Builder-grade ridge vents and starter strips are the early failure points on these roofs, and often it's a repair rather than a replacement. Trees are the inland roof's main enemy — limb impact and debris damming valleys cause more claims than wind alone.
On cost: reinspection is free from our partners; if the dispute escalates to appraisal or a public adjuster, those are paid from the recovery, not up front.
A wind mitigation inspection (Form OIR-B1-1802) can lower premiums on any roof and is required for most discounts.
How it works
For a large disputed claim, often yes. They take a percentage of the recovery. For a straightforward claim with clear damage, a good roofer's documentation is usually enough.
Ask for the report and photos. Get a roofer with claims experience to document the storm-specific damage the adjuster didn't attribute. Request a reinspection with your roofer present. Most reversals happen at this step.
A wind mitigation inspection (Form OIR-B1-1802) can lower premiums on any roof and is required for most discounts. Oceanway is inside the everyday service radius, so there's no travel surcharge and no "we'll be in the area next month."
