In the severe windstorm that passed through Jeremy’s neighborhood in Moore, Oklahoma, the level of destruction affecting both the interior and exterior of his home was far from typical. As a result of the tremendous force of the winds, the roofing of the house experienced stress, with curled, peeling, and separation on some of the surfaces.
As reported by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, “Extreme winds will cause roofs on homes and buildings to incur curled and peeled shingles when fastened roofing materials are subjected to excessive tensions and stresses. Jeremy’s house showed the effects of these conditions, along with signs of escalating deterioration.
Still, despite the fact that the damages are increasing, the settlement offer made by Allstate is only for a total of $673.66. This does not include the weaknesses and potential for damages that are hidden. With uncertainties and a deteriorating situation, Jeremy made queries with SPJ Adjusting Services.
The extent of the damages caused to the building due to the winds had been identified in detail by the appraisal team in SPJ, which included displacement of shingles, breaches of waterproof seal, decking affected due to roof uplift, decking affected due to entry of water from the winds, separated flashing, and retention of moisture.
With adamant advocacy and correct valuation, SPJ was able to recover a revised settlement amount of $16,757.65, so that Jeremy could undertake the necessary repairs to his residence.
At SPJ Adjusting Services, our fight for fair compensation for windstorms continues unconditionally.
