Storm Damage Repair Services We Provide

Hail-dented and wind-damaged siding replacement. Vinyl, fiber cement, LP SmartSide, and steel siding. Full-sided homes and partial replacements with proper color and profile matching.

Water intrusion from storm damage causes drywall, insulation, flooring, and structural damage. We restore water-damaged interiors completely — drywall, framing, insulation, flooring, and painting.

⚠ Signs Your Home Has Hail or Storm Damage

Many homeowners do not realize their home has insurance-claimable storm damage until it is too late to file. Look for these warning signs after any significant storm:

✓  Dented gutters or downspouts — a reliable indicator of hail size and impact
✓  Bruised or missing shingle granules — hail impact damages shingle coating
✓  Dented or cracked vinyl siding — hail leaves distinctive circular dents
✓  Damaged window screens or frames — storm debris impact damage
✓  Water stains on ceilings or walls — storm-driven water infiltration
✓  Lifted or missing shingles — high wind damage to roof system

Most homeowner insurance policies have a 1-year window to file storm damage claims in Minnesota. Do not wait — call us for a free inspection after any significant storm.

Frequently Asked Questions About Insurance Work & Storm Damage

Will my insurance cover storm damage repairs in Minnesota?

Most standard homeowner insurance policies in Minnesota cover sudden and accidental storm damage including hail, wind, and water intrusion. Coverage depends on your specific policy, deductible, and the type of damage. We help you understand your coverage and document all damage properly during our free inspection.

How do I start an insurance claim for storm damage?

Start by calling Garrett Construction for a free damage inspection before contacting your insurance company. We document all damage thoroughly first so you have a complete picture before your adjuster visit. Then file your claim with your insurance carrier — we attend the adjuster meeting with you to ensure all damage is properly recorded.

How long do I have to file a storm damage claim in Minnesota?

Most Minnesota homeowner insurance policies require storm damage claims to be filed within one year of the damage date. Some policies allow two years. Do not delay — storm damage worsens over time and late claims are frequently denied. Contact us immediately after any significant storm for a free inspection.

What is the difference between RCV and ACV insurance coverage?

RCV (Replacement Cost Value) coverage pays to replace damaged materials at today's prices — the best option for homeowners. ACV (Actual Cash Value) coverage pays RCV minus depreciation, meaning older roofs or siding receive less payout. We help you understand which coverage you have and how it affects your repair costs before any work begins.

Do you offer emergency storm damage tarping and board-up?

Yes. If your home has sustained damage that is exposing the interior to weather — a damaged roof, broken windows, or structural breach — we offer emergency tarping and board-up services to prevent further damage while your insurance claim is processed. Call us any time for emergency response.
