Saratoga roof insurance claims: inspection, documentation, adjuster meeting, and supplements — from a roofer who does this weekly.
Get a written quoteSubdivision claims benefit from precedent: if the carrier already approved the same model house two doors down, that's persuasive at reinspection. Builder-grade shingle from this era rarely has a manufacturer warranty worth invoking, so the insurance route is usually the only route.
Precedent from neighbors' approved claims on the same era of roof carries weight at reinspection.
Start the HOA approval the day the claim is filed; the roofer can't schedule the install until both the carrier and the committee say yes.

Subdivision claims benefit from precedent: if the carrier already approved the same model house two doors down, that's persuasive at reinspection. Builder-grade shingle from this era rarely has a manufacturer warranty worth invoking, so the insurance route is usually the only route.
From aerial measurement of your specific roof, the home's age (built in the 1980s–90s), and what you tell us. It's a number for your house, not an average for the neighborhood.
The hurricane deductible applies only during a named storm declared by the National Hurricane Center and is a percentage of your dwelling coverage. On a home insured for a mid-six-figure amount, that can be five figures. Every other wind event uses the regular flat deductible.
