Get a written quoteThis is the housing age where a roof decides whether a policy renews, making a pre-renewal inspection cheap insurance against a non-renewal letter. Original tile roofs from the '80s and '90s are reaching underlayment failure now, and that's a lift-and-reset or full replacement, not a tile repair. Test-square counts before the adjuster arrives are what win reinspections — eight or more strikes per hundred square feet is the threshold most carriers use.
On cost: no cost to inspect; the roofer's incentive is a fully scoped claim, and yours is a new roof for the price of your deductible — both align when the damage is real.
Coastal counties (Chatham, Bryan, Effingham) carry separate named-storm and hurricane deductibles, similar in concept to Florida's, that only apply once the National Hurricane Center issues a watch or warning for the area.
How it works
Under a replacement cost policy, no — the recoverable depreciation is only paid when the work is done. Under an ACV policy, you get the depreciated value and can do what you want, but it won't buy a new roof.
Test squares: a 10x10 foot area on each slope is chalked and hail strikes are counted. Most carriers use a threshold (often 8+ per square) to approve a slope. Your roofer should do the same count before the adjuster arrives.

Snellville is inside the everyday service radius, so there's no travel surcharge and no "we'll be in the area next month."
