Storm season hits South Florida hard. If a storm just rolled through Miami Lakes, Miami-Dade County, Broward County, or anywhere in our service area, here's exactly what to do — and what to avoid.
Step 1: Stay safe. Do not climb on the roof yourself. Wait for the storm to fully clear and let a professional do the inspection.
Step 2: Document everything from the ground. Photograph the storm, your home's exterior, dented gutters, damaged screens, and any visible roof debris. Timestamps matter for insurance.
Step 3: Call a trusted local contractor for a free inspection. Apex Roofing Solutions responds to storm calls within 24 hours and provides written damage assessments — no obligation.
Step 4: Contact your insurance company. File a claim and request an adjuster visit. Have your contractor on-site when the adjuster comes, so nothing gets missed.
Step 5: Avoid storm-chaser contractors. Out-of-state crews often disappear after the job, leaving warranty issues unresolved. Choose a licensed, insured local contractor with a verifiable address.
