Following an abrupt wind event in Peoria, Illinois, Mr Dixson soon discovered that the storm’s true impact went far beyond what could be seen at first glance. Shingles were uplifted, portions of the roof structure compromised, and wind-driven rain was creating secondary moisture problems. Those are elements that could lead to long-term structural degradation if left unattended.
Yet Allstate’s initial offer of $682.24 fell short of the damage, let alone what the repair cost. Something didn’t smell right to Dixson.
That is when SPJ Adjusting came in.
Through an in-depth, evidence-based examination, our appraisal team was able to reveal the whole impact of wind: roofing displacement, decking exposure, flashing separation, and initial interior vulnerabilities. SPJ was thus in a position to present a well-documented and accurate scope of loss during the appraisal process.
The result was a significant amendment: a just award of $9,504.54 and thus finally enabled Dixson to correctly restore his house and prevent future problems.
At SPJ Adjusting, no homeowner should be left underpaid after a windstorm because every property simply deserves a settlement that reflects its damage.
