Thank you I am a brand new adjuster and this information was more than helpful because I'm working more as a claim examinator processor and the training sucks that they gave us but we are the people that do the investigating in the claims to write the check for the insured.

OMG! This video was so helpful! Thank you so much!! Now I have to figure out why some of the quantity totals don't match the sub totals under some of the categories.

@@homesteadroofing How do I know what line items were covered in a supplemental payment? There are sections/categories that say "supplements" but their totals don't balance with the payment amount. The "supplements" total is less than the payment amount. I need to know what amount went toward roofing & gutters. Why can't they just put an astrid (*) by the lines items that are covered in the payment. I asked my claims adjuster to send me a list of the items that were covered by the payment, and I was told that it is listed in the new estimate. How do I know what line items were covered in a supplemental payment?

so I got a significant amount for our new roof. I 5 bids. 14, 12, 9, 8, and 8 in thousands. I chose a local buisness. they are offering 5 years guarantee. warranty is void if a tornado, huricane, wind or hail somes and damages the new roof. Is that protocol? they have 15 years exp. ty

Yes, those things will void warranties.

Can the contractor charge more than what the claim is covering? Or will that come back on the home owner?

@homesteadroofing 8 ай бұрын

If the contractor is charging more than the claim amount, that's legit. If the homeowner doesn't want to come out of pocket for the difference, either the homeowner or the roofer needs to demonstrate to the insurance company why his cost is higher. Or... if all his charges are justifiable, then once the homeowner has paid the bill and sends it to the insurance company, the homeowner will get reimbursed.
