A storm damage repair estimate often arrives fast, sometimes from a traveling crew — worth slowing down enough to check a few things even under time pressure.
What to look for
- Documented damage with photos, matched against what's actually being quoted for repair.
- Local licensing and insurance, especially important with traveling storm-chasing crews.
- Itemized scope, since insurance claims typically require this format for reimbursement.
- Temporary repairs versus permanent — tarping or board-up is often billed separately from the full repair.
