Following a severe hailstorm in Pueblo, Colorado, Marisela began to uncover extensive damage across her property that had previously gone unnoticed. The hail had pummeled shingles, wrecking exterior surfaces, as well as impacting underlaments and metal parts, causing very fine leaks. A short while later, it became more and more visible how the storm impacted her house.
As soon as Farmers Insurance made an initial offer of $32,538.96, it became clear that it couldn’t adequately address all the damages brought about by the storm. It was at this point that Marisela sought assistance from SPJ.
Immediately, SPJ launched an extensive review of appraisals, and they carefully analyzed all regions. Our team:
- Performed a detailed roof and exterior examination
- It identified all visible and subsurface hail impacts.
- Documented structural weaknesses and moist issues
- Assembled an entire evidence-supported appraisal report
- Ensured code compliance and correct repair standards were taken into account fully
By documenting effectively and advocating, SPJ was successful in opposing the low-value invoice.
Consequently, there was a corrected award of $38,934.77, giving Marisela the opportunity to repair her property with confidence and peace of mind.
SPJ – accuracy, fairness, and certainty for homeowners confronted with hail damage.
