How long do I have to file after a storm?

Most Colorado policies give you one to two years from the date of loss, which is why an older storm can still be claimable. The hail record is the fastest way to figure out which date of loss actually applies to your roof.

What if the adjuster denies the damage?

It happens, and it's usually a scope disagreement rather than a flat no. Dan meets the adjuster on the roof with the test squares already chalked, and supplements the claim with photos and measurements when the first estimate misses work the code requires.

Do I pay anything besides my deductible?

On a covered claim, your deductible is your cost — plus any upgrades you choose, like an impact-rated shingle or a fortified-spec underlayment. It's written into the contract before work starts, never discovered afterward.

Do you use your own crews?

The crews are long-standing installation partners Dan has worked with for years, all covered under Pinnacol workers comp, and he's on site while they work. Your inspection, scope, adjuster meeting, and final walkthrough are always him.

Insurance questions

The things people are
actually worried about.

Still unsure? Call (303) 669-4174 and ask Dan directly — he'd rather talk you out of a bad claim than file one.

A hail claim is a weather event, not an at-fault claim, so carriers generally rate it differently from something you caused. Rates in Colorado move with the whole region after big storms whether or not you file. Dan will tell you what he's seen on similar policies before you decide.
