Assisting an Insurance Claim and Restoring a Lightning-Struck Roof

The Problem

In July 2022, Kevin Nicolini experienced a once-in-a-lifetime event: lightning struck his house! The lightning created a hole that went all the way through the drywall of the interior. Chris Rojas was called out to inspect the damage and do an emergency tarp of the hole. While there, Chris discovered additional damage to the roof, including lifted shingles from wind damage, cracked shingles, and exposed, rusting nails that had not been properly maintained.

The Solution

Chris recommended that Kevin file an insurance claim to get the roof replaced as a simple repair on the hole caused by the lightning was not the proper solution. Rojas Roofing also sent in a sample of the shingles and confirmed that they were discontinued, meaning that there would be no match available to attempt a spot repair. Kevin’s insurance originally denied the full claim, giving Kevin only a small amount to do the spot repair. Rojas Roofing took the claim to supplementation, providing evidence that the full roof needed to be replaced. In the end, Kevin’s full roof was approved by insurance!

    After initial delay and a small problem with communication, I was super happy with Rojas Roofing! They did a wonderful job, clean up was great! My new metal roof and gutters were completed in 3 days! My house looks fabulous! It was so hot … More when they replaced the roof! I felt bad for them but they kept at it and didn't complain or make excuses. Our sales rep Daniel Trusty was completely amazing. He responded quickly to any question, was always available and has the most pleasing personality! I would 100% recommend them for your roofing needs!

    Had damage in multiple locations to roof, flashing and soffit due to lightning strike. Rojas was quick to send Larry out to inspect and tarp damaged area. Process from estimate to completion was smooth. Crew did quality work and cleaned … More up after themselves. Very happy with everything.
