Get a written quoteAerial measurement plus a five-minute history of the house beats a drive-by estimate in an area this varied. Real estate activity drives a lot of the roofing here — pre-listing inspections, buyer credits, and insurance-driven replacements right after closing. Salt air corrodes fasteners and drip edge years before shingles look worn, so coastal roofs often fail from the metal out.
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.
Building code in coastal counties was tightened after Hurricane Florence; a replacement roof built to current wind provisions can mean a real difference at renewal, not just a formality.
How it works
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 process in most policies where you and the carrier each hire an appraiser and a neutral umpire settles the difference. It's faster and cheaper than litigation, and roofers can't do it for you — a public adjuster or appraiser can.
