Spring storms are no stranger to folks in Norman. Between the wind, hail, and wild Oklahoma weather, roof damage is just part of life around here. The problem is, most homeowners aren’t quite sure what to do when it comes to insurance claims — and that can leave you stressed and stuck.
At McCann’s Roofing and Construction, we’ve helped lots of Norman families walk through the process with confidence. So if you’re dealin’ with a leak or think your roof got beat up in the last storm, here’s what you need to know.
Why Norman Homeowners Need to Understand Roofing Claims
Norman sees more than its fair share of storms — especially in the spring. Between strong winds, heavy rain, and hail the size of golf balls, it’s no wonder so many roof repairs happen this time of year.
But here’s the thing: even if your roof looks okay from the ground, there could be damage that needs attention. And if you wait too long, you could miss the window to file a claim with your insurance company.
That’s why it’s so important to understand how the claims process works — so you can act fast, avoid out-of-pocket surprises, and make sure your home’s protected before the next round of storms rolls through.
Step-by-Step: How to File a Roof Insurance Claim in Oklahoma
If you’ve never filed a roofing claim before, don’t worry — it’s easier than you think, especially when you’ve got someone local to help guide you through it. Here’s how the process usually goes:
- Check your roof after the storm.
Walk around your home and look for anything out of the ordinary — missing shingles, leaks, granules in the gutters, or anything that looks off. You don’t have to get on the roof — just take a good look from the ground. - Take pictures.
Grab your phone and snap photos of anything you see. Inside and out. Water spots on ceilings? Cracked siding? Anything storm-related could help your case. - Call your insurance company.
Let them know you think you’ve got damage and want to file a claim. They’ll give you a claim number and send an adjuster to inspect your roof. - Call McCann’s Roofing.
This step makes a big difference. We’ll come out, give a full inspection, and even meet with your insurance adjuster to make sure nothin’ gets missed. A lot of times we catch damage that others don’t.
