We Handle Your Storm Damage Claims in Southern Maryland
Filing a storm damage insurance claim is rarely straightforward, especially when you're trying to determine what was damaged, what needs to be documented, and what information your insurance adjuster will require. To assist you during this process, ExteriorPros inspects your exterior, documents the damage in detail, and walks you through the scope of work before anything moves forward. We commonly assess and scope roofing, siding, gutters, and skylights for storm damage claims on residential and commercial properties throughout Southern Maryland.
Our role is to be your contractor-as-partner, not another salesperson. We don't push unnecessary replacements or promise that your insurance company will approve a claim. Instead, we give you an accurate, documented picture of the storm damage so you can enter the claims process with the information you need. From the initial inspection through the replacement work, we'll keep communication clear at every stage.
Storm Damage We Commonly Document and Scope
Storm damage rarely affects just one part of your home’s exterior. We assess the areas most commonly impacted by wind, hail, and severe weather, then document our findings so you have a clear picture of the damage as you begin the insurance claim process.
Roof Damage Assessment and Replacement
Roof damage is one of the most common reasons homeowners file a storm damage claim. We inspect your roofing system, identify damage caused by the storm, and prepare a detailed scope based on the actual condition—not general wear and tear. As a GAF Master Elite contractor, we bring certified expertise to every residential roofing inspection.
Siding Damage Documentation and Replacement
High winds and hail can damage siding and compromise the system beneath it. We document the condition of your siding in detail and provide a clear scope of replacement for your adjuster, using products such as James Hardie fiber cement, CertainTeed vinyl, and Mastic vinyl siding.
Gutter Damage and Replacement Scope
Dented, separated, or damaged gutters can be part of a storm damage claim. We assess your gutters as part of the overall exterior inspection and can scope replacement with custom, seamless aluminum gutters in 5-inch and 6-inch residential profiles.
Skylight Replacement After Storm Damage
A damaged skylight should be documented along with the rest of your roof, particularly when the damage occurred during the same storm event. We assess storm-damaged skylights during the inspection and install Velux skylights, which come with a 10-year warranty.
How the Insurance Claim Process Works With a Contractor Involved
Understanding what happens after a storm can make the insurance process feel much more manageable. ExteriorPros handles the inspection, documentation, and scope of work while keeping you informed throughout the process. We don't manufacture urgency or rush your claim; the timeline depends on your policy, adjuster availability, and the approval process.

Why Certifications Matter When You Choose a Claim Contractor
When your home needs repairs after a storm, the contractor you choose matters just as much as the products being installed. Manufacturer certifications demonstrate that a contractor has completed the required training and follows established installation standards, which can help protect the quality of the replacement work and the warranties that come with it.
ExteriorPros is a GAF Master Elite contractor, a distinction held by a limited percentage of roofing contractors nationwide. For qualifying residential asphalt shingle projects, this certification provides access to GAF's Golden Pledge warranty, which includes 50 years of material coverage and 25 years of workmanship coverage, as well as the Silver Pledge warranty with 10 years of workmanship coverage.
Our certifications extend beyond roofing. Our James Hardie certification demonstrates our training and expertise in installing James Hardie fiber cement siding, helping ensure your siding is installed according to manufacturer specifications. We're also a member of the Certified Contractors Network and certified for Elevate TPO commercial flat roofing.
Frequently Asked Questions About Insurance Claims in Southern Maryland
We coordinate with your insurance adjuster during the inspection process, walking through our documented damage assessment and explaining our findings. We're not a public adjuster, but we'll arrive prepared and communicate clearly about the scope of work.
Coverage depends on your specific policy, but standard policies may cover damage caused by covered wind, hail, and storm events. This can include damage to roofing, siding, and gutters when the damage results from a covered storm rather than normal wear and tear. Your insurance company can confirm what your policy covers.
It can depend on your insurance carrier, claims history, and policy terms. ExteriorPros can't predict how your insurer will respond, so it's best to speak with your insurance agent before filing a claim if you're concerned about potential premium changes.
A professional inspection can give you a clearer picture before you make that decision. Damage that looks minor from the ground may be more extensive when the roof, siding, gutters, or other exterior systems are inspected closely. We can document what we find so you can consider the damage alongside your deductible and coverage limits.
Yes. Manufacturer warranties are based on the product and installation requirements, not how the project is funded. Qualifying GAF shingle replacements can receive applicable Golden Pledge or Silver Pledge coverage, while Velux skylight replacements carry a 10-year warranty.
The timeline depends on the size and scope of the project. A roof replacement may have a different timeline than a project involving the roof, siding, and gutters, and scheduling, material availability, and weather can also affect the process. Once your scope is approved, we can provide a more specific project timeframe.
