Our Storm Damage Repair Process
Damage Assessment
We inspect every slope, flashing point, and penetration for storm damage. Hail hit counts per test square, wind lift patterns, and granule displacement, all documented with photos and measurements your adjuster will accept.
File Your Claim
Our office prepares the claim package: photo evidence, damage scope, material specifications, and repair estimate in Xactimate format. We file with your carrier and track the claim through to adjuster assignment.
Adjuster Meeting
Your adjuster gets a guided tour of the damage by our inspector. We speak the same language: hail hit classification, wind speed thresholds, manufacturer warranties voided by damage. This meeting is where claims get approved.
Repair or Replace
Once approved, our Jacob crew handles the repair or replacement at the insurance-agreed price. You pay your deductible. We do the work, file the completion paperwork, and you're done.

About Our Jacob Storm Damage Repair Services
We work with every major insurance carrier in IL: State Farm, Allstate, USAA, Liberty Mutual, Farmers, Nationwide, and more. Our supplement team knows Xactimate line items and fights for full replacement when your roof qualifies. If the initial estimate seems low, we document additional damage and resubmit.
Timing matters on storm claims. Most IL insurance policies give you 12 months from the date of damage to file a claim. Once filed, you typically have another 12-18 months to complete repairs. Don't wait. Call (877) 349-1553 for a free inspection and we'll tell you if you have a claimable issue.
