This is the Mount Holly page for roof insurance claim help. The short version: you want to understand whether they have a claim and to not get steamrolled by the adjuster, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.

Ridge and soffit ventilation added during a replacement often does more for the roof's service life than upgrading the shingle line. Housing spans a century of construction, so the right answer changes street by street: re-deck on an older home, straightforward replacement in a newer subdivision.
What it costs in Mount Holly: there is no fee to the homeowner for inspection and claim documentation — the roofer is paid from the approved claim, and your out-of-pocket is the deductible.
Inland and Piedmont homeowners see more wind and hail claims than hurricane claims — the same documentation standard applies, but the deductible is the regular flat one, not the named-storm percentage.
How it works
The carrier's adjuster inspects the roof and writes a scope. Having your roofer present means damage doesn't get missed and the scope is argued on the spot rather than by letter later.
A request for additional payment when the adjuster's scope missed items — code upgrades, drip edge, ice-and-water shield, or damage found once the roof is opened up. Common and legitimate.
Inland and Piedmont homeowners see more wind and hail claims than hurricane claims — the same documentation standard applies, but the deductible is the regular flat one, not the named-storm percentage. Mount Holly is inside the everyday service radius, so there's no travel surcharge and no "we'll be in the area next month."
