Your Roof Insurance Claim, Handled From Start to Finish

Most Colorado homeowners don't realize their insurance covers the full replacement cost of a storm damaged roof, minus the deductible. Many roofers don't fight for you. We do.

In most cases, your only cost is your insurance deductible.

THE REALITY

Most Homeowners Leave Money on the Table

After a hailstorm, your insurance company sends an adjuster who writes an estimate. That initial estimate often falls short. Missing line items, undervalued materials, overlooked damage. Most homeowners accept it because they don't know any better.

That's where Gates Enterprises comes in. We know Xactimate line items inside and out. We know what your roof actually costs to replace properly. And we advocate with your insurance company to pursue the coverage your policy provides.

WHAT MOST HOMEOWNERS DON'T KNOW

The Insurance Process, Explained

Your Insurance Covers More Than You Think

Most Colorado homeowner's insurance policies cover the full replacement cost of a storm damaged roof. Your only responsibility is typically your deductible. Many homeowners assume they'll owe thousands more. In most cases, they don't.

Supplements Can Make or Break Your Claim

When an insurance adjuster's initial estimate falls short, a supplement is additional documentation requesting fair coverage for work that was missed or undervalued. Most homeowners don't know supplements exist. We prepare and submit them as a standard part of our process.

Recoverable Depreciation Is Your Money

Your insurance company withholds a portion of your payout until the work is completed. Once we finish and you submit the final invoice, your insurance releases the remaining funds. We help you collect every dollar your policy provides.

Quadruple Certified Means Real Warranties

Gates Enterprises holds certifications from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, and Malarkey. That means your warranty is backed by the manufacturer, not just the contractor. If we ever closed our doors, your warranty would still stand.

They found damage we didn’t even know about, attended the adjuster meeting, and got the scope right. Professional from start to finish.

Our first estimate from the insurance company was way too low. Gates submitted a supplement and the difference was significant. We’re glad we didn’t settle.
