A process built for the decision-maker
Protect the property
Contain interior water safely and arrange weatherproofing when conditions allow.
Record observed damage
Photograph the affected roof components and adjacent conditions without making coverage promises.
Complete authorized repairs
Retain estimates, change approvals, invoices and completion photos for the claim file.
Documentation that stays useful
Inspection photos should be tied to a roof area and a clear recommendation. Estimates should separate included work, allowances and exclusions, while completion records should identify repairs, materials and warranty responsibilities. Contain interior water safely and arrange weatherproofing when conditions allow.
That level of detail reduces repeated site visits and helps the next owner, manager or council understand what was done. The proposal should make event date, weather and safely obtained photos clear.

Questions customers ask
What does a property owner managing an insurance-related repair need from a roofing proposal?
A roofer can document physical roof damage and repair requirements, while the insurer decides coverage under the policy. The proposal should connect each line item to an observed condition or stated project requirement. The decision record should also address event date, weather and safely obtained photos.
How can roofing proposals be compared fairly?
Give bidders the same written scope or require each contractor to state assumptions, materials, preparation, allowances and exclusions. Prices are not comparable when one proposal includes work that another omits. The decision record should also address temporary measures that reduce further damage.
What should be prepared before requesting a proposal?
Gather the address, roof-system information, leak or maintenance history, relevant plans, safe photos and access constraints. Add the decision timeline and the names of people who need to review the scope. The decision record should also address itemized permanent-repair scope and invoices.
