Replacing a roof is one of the largest expenses a homeowner can face—and often it’s not planned. Fortunately, when your roof has sustained storm damage, insurance can significantly offset the cost. But not all contractors are equipped to help you navigate that process. Choosing a company that understands the ins and outs of insurance claims, like Optimal Home Improvement Inc., can save you time, stress, and thousands of dollars.

1. The High Cost of Roofing Projects
New roofs can cost anywhere from $8,000 to $20,000 or more depending on size, materials, and labor. That’s not pocket change—and without insurance coverage, many homeowners are forced to delay essential repairs, risking further structural damage. With wind, hail, and ice storms common in Illinois, insurance-approved replacements are more common than many realize.
2. How Storm Damage Claims Work
After a storm, you typically have a limited time to file a claim. Insurance companies often require photographic evidence, detailed inspection reports, and certified assessments. This is where a knowledgeable contractor makes all the difference—they handle documentation, meet with adjusters, and ensure nothing is overlooked.
