When your roof in Chicago faces damage due to severe weather conditions or other unforeseen circumstances, it’s crucial to know how to navigate the process of filing an insurance claim for roof repairs. At We Anchor Point Roofing, we understand the importance of a reliable roof, and we’re here to guide you through the steps of making a successful roof repair insurance claim in Chicago. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll walk you through the process, ensuring that your roof gets the attention it needs.

ASSESS THE DAMAGE📝

The first step in the process is to assess the extent of the damage to your roof. Look for signs of damage such as missing shingles, leaks, or water stains on your ceiling. For flat roofs, check for cracks, blisters, or areas with ponding water. It’s essential to document the damage thoroughly with photographs and notes to provide evidence for your insurance claim.

REVIEW YOUR INSURANCE POLICY🔎

Before proceeding further, review your homeowner’s insurance policy. Pay close attention to the coverage for roof repairs and any deductibles that may apply. Understanding your policy will help you determine if the damage is eligible for coverage and how much you might have to pay out of pocket.

CONTACT ANCHOR POINT ROOFING☎️

Now that you’ve assessed the damage and reviewed your insurance policy, it’s time to contact We Anchor Point Roofing.

Be prepared to answer any questions they may have and follow their instructions carefully.

INSURANCE INSPECTION🧐

During the installation day of a roof replacement, homeowners can expect the contractors or professional roofers to typically spend one day. This is especially true for an average-sized residential home and is roofing industry standard. Roofing contractors are skilled professionals who work efficiently to get your roof replaced in a timely manner.


Generally, asphalt shingles take about 1-2 days to install, metal roofs may take 2-5 days, wood shakes (wooden shingles) and slate roofs usually range from 5-14 days. Metal and concrete flat roofs typically fall within that same timeframe.


Hiring a reputable roofing contractor to replace your roof and preparing adequately ahead of time can cut down on the installation process timeline, without any unnecessary delays or disruptions.

APPROVAL AND SETTLEMENT✅

Other factors that can change the scope of the roof replacement process and help to determine replacement time include: the choice of new materials, type of shingles, and the size of the home.

SCHEDULE REPAIRS📆

Proper roof ventilation is essential for increasing the lifespan of your roof. Without adequate airflow, hot air can become trapped in the attic, causing excessive heat and humidity that can lead to damage over time.


Moisture buildup from condensation and even leaks can cause mold growth and rot, compromising the structural integrity of your roof. By allowing hot air to escape through roof vents, you are preventing these issues from occurring, preserving the overall health of your roof.


With a longer lifespan, you’ll save money on costly repairs or premature replacements down the line. Invest in good ventilation now to protect your investment and enjoy a durable roof for years to come.

SUBMIT DOCUMENTATION📋

Finally, submit all invoices and documentation related to the roof repairs to your insurance company. This will help you receive your reimbursement promptly and conclude the insurance claim process.
