Get claim-ready roofing contractor support after storm damage.
PerilBridge routes roof repair work to vetted contractors who understand carrier documentation, supplement context, repair progress updates, and closeout evidence. No deductible games, no pressure tactics.
Your roof claim repair workflow in four steps
PerilBridge is built to support a cleaner handoff between homeowners, adjusters, carriers, and vetted roofing contractors when repair work needs reliable documentation.
Report
File your insurance claim with your carrier and capture early photos, dates, leak points, and temporary mitigation details.
Inspect
Your adjuster inspects the damage and reviews the scope. Your contractor can document roof conditions in a format claim teams can evaluate.
Route
PerilBridge routes the repair workflow to a vetted roofing contractor familiar with insurance documentation and closeout requirements.
Repair
The contractor completes approved work, documents progress, flags supplement needs, and assembles closeout evidence for the claim file.
Storm-chaser red flags to watch for
After every major storm, unlicensed contractors flood affected areas. Here's how to spot them — and why PerilBridge contractors are different.
Door-to-door solicitation
Legitimate contractors don't canvass neighborhoods after storms. If someone knocks on your door offering a free roof inspection the day after a hailstorm, be cautious.
Deductible waivers or rebates
Offering to "cover your deductible" is illegal in most states. It's a red flag that the contractor may be inflating the claim or cutting corners on materials.
No verifiable license
Ask for a state contractor license number and verify it online. Unlicensed contractors leave you liable for injuries and substandard work.
High-pressure tactics
"Sign today or lose the deal" is never legitimate. You have time to get multiple opinions and verify credentials before committing.
Route the repair to a claim-ready contractor
Every contractor in the PerilBridge network is HAAG-, manufacturer-, or Xactimate-ready, licensed where required, and expected to document repair progress, supplement context, and closeout evidence for the claim file.
Need emergency roof tarp?
If your roof is actively leaking or your property is exposed to the elements, don't wait for a full claim process. Emergency roof tarp service protect your home from further damage while your claim is processed.
What your deductible actually means
Understanding your deductible protects you from contractors who promise to “make it disappear.” Here's what you need to know.
Your deductible is your responsibility
Your insurance deductible is the portion of the repair cost you agreed to pay when you purchased your policy. It's a legal obligation — not a negotiable fee.
Deductible waivers are illegal in most states
Any contractor who offers to "cover" or "waive" your deductible is likely committing insurance fraud. This can void your claim and expose you to legal liability.
PerilBridge contractors work within the system
PerilBridge contractors are expected to document repair scope, progress, supplements, and closeout without inflated claims or deductible-rebate tactics.
