Hail damage circled on a shingle roof during a RainTech Roofing storm inspection

Hail damage? Check from the ground.

Walk the outside of the house for 15 to 20 minutes and check what you find. Don't get on the roof. Hail damage on shingles is hard to see from the ground unless it's bad, so these are the clues around it.

Nothing obvious from the ground

Good sign, but not proof. Hail bruising is hard to see from below. If a storm came through, a free inspection is the only way to know.

Spot a storm chaser.

After every big hail storm, crews from out of town show up on Tulsa doorsteps. Here's what to watch for.

  • They knock on your door after the storm

    Reputable Tulsa roofers are busy after a big storm. They don't need to recruit door to door.

  • They offer to cover your deductible

    That's insurance fraud in Oklahoma. Any contractor who offers is telling you who they are.

  • The price is only good today

    Same-day pressure is a sales tactic, not a business reality.

  • They want a big deposit, or cash only

    More than half up front before work starts is a take-the-deposit-and-vanish warning.

  • They want you to sign over your benefits

    An assignment of benefits hands them control of your claim and the negotiation with your insurer.

  • No local address, no paperwork

    A mailbox for an office, no certificate of insurance on request, or a one-page contract with no scope.

Insurance Claims questions.

Straight answers before you book.

All FAQs →
Should I call my insurance company or a roofer first?
Get a free inspection first. A photo-documented inspection tells you whether there's enough damage to be worth filing, and gives you the evidence to file with. If it isn't worth a claim, you haven't opened one.
How long do I have to file a roof claim in Oklahoma?
Typically one to two years from the date of loss, depending on your policy. Don't wait that long: file within weeks or months of the storm, while the damage is fresh and easy to tie to a date.
How much is my wind/hail deductible?
Most Oklahoma policies have a separate wind/hail deductible set as a percentage of your dwelling coverage (Coverage A), commonly 1%, 2%, 3% or 5%. At $300,000 of coverage, 2% is $6,000. Both numbers are on your declarations page.
Can a roofer pay or waive my deductible?
No. Oklahoma law (HB 1940, Title 36 § 3614.1) prohibits contractors from waiving or absorbing deductibles, and it's treated as insurance fraud. A contractor who offers is a red flag.
What's the difference between ACV and RCV?
On a replacement-cost (RCV) policy, you get two checks: the first is replacement cost minus depreciation minus your deductible, and the second releases the depreciation after the work is done. On an actual-cash-value (ACV) policy, the first check is the only one.
How long does the insurance company have to respond?
Under Oklahoma Insurance Department rules (OAC 365:15-3), insurers must acknowledge a claim within 20 business days and accept or deny it within 45 business days of receiving a properly executed proof of loss. If they need more time, they must tell you why in writing and update you every 45 days.
What if the adjuster misses damage?
We review the adjuster's scope line by line and submit supplements with photos and documentation for anything missed or undervalued, including code-required items.
Do I have to use the roofer my insurance company recommends?
No. Insurers don't pre-approve contractors. You choose who works on your home.
Is emergency tarping covered by insurance?
Tarping is nearly always reimbursable through the claim as a mitigation cost. Keep the receipt, take photos, and submit them with your claim.
