During roof installations throughout Rockwall, Heath, and DFW, Phil the Roofer occasionally discovers hidden damage that wasn't visible during initial inspections, such as rotted decking from old leaks or structural issues from previous storms. With over 20 years of experience, Phil handles these discoveries professionally and transparently, ensuring homeowners understand exactly what's needed and why before any additional work begins.
Immediate Communication and Documentation
The moment Phil's crew uncovers additional damage, work stops while Phil personally contacts you with detailed photos showing the problem, clear explanations of what caused it, and specific recommendations for proper repair. This documentation serves dual purposes: keeping you informed as the homeowner and providing evidence needed for insurance supplemental claims if the damage relates to covered storm events.
- Work stops immediately when hidden damage is discovered
- Phil personally calls with photos and detailed explanations
- Clear cost estimates provided before any additional work begins
- Insurance supplement documentation prepared simultaneously
- Homeowner approval required before proceeding with repairs
Insurance Supplements Handle Most Additional Costs
In Phil's experience, 80% of hidden damage discovered during storm-related replacements qualifies for insurance coverage through supplemental claims. Phil's expertise with insurance procedures means he knows exactly how to document and file these supplements, often recovering the full cost of unexpected repairs. This knowledge saves homeowners thousands compared to contractors who don't understand insurance processes and leave customers paying out of pocket.
Phil never proceeds with additional work without explicit homeowner approval and clear understanding of costs. Unlike contractors who spring surprise charges after starting projects, Phil's transparent approach ensures no financial surprises. If insurance supplements are denied, Phil provides options including financing for necessary repairs or alternative solutions that meet budget constraints. His reputation depends on honest dealings and fair pricing, not hidden charges that damage customer relationships. Trust Phil's experience to handle discoveries professionally and cost-effectively. Call 844-714-7445 for transparent roofing processes that protect both your home and your wallet.
