## What to do if a storm damages your roof

Finding roof damage after a strong storm isn't exactly the greatest. Luckily, you have homeowners insurance to fall back on.

Unfortunately, most homeowners don't know where to start when they first notice storm damage to their roof. I want to change that and help you understand what to do when your roof has storm damage. 

For over 30 years, the team at Bill Ragan Roofing has guided homeowners through the insurance claim process. Now, I'll do the same for you and your storm-damaged roof. 

In this video, you'll learn the step-by-step process you'll take after noticing storm damage to your roof. After watching, check out [What To Do If an Adjuster Denies Your Roof Claim](https://www.billraganroofing.com/blog/what-do-when-insurance-adjuster-denies-roof-claim) to learn your options if the insurance company initially denies your claim.
