Your Neighborhood Shingle Specialists Advocating for Your Best Coverage

A.L.E Roofing helps homeowners get damage documented, filed, and repaired the right way. After 30 years of working with Kentucky weather, we know exactly what hail and wind do to shingle roofs, and we know what your insurance company needs to see to process your claim.

We prepare our estimates in Xactimate, which is the same software your adjuster uses. That means your claim arrives in the format insurance companies work in, keeps the process moving, and keeps everyone on the same page. When your adjuster comes out, we meet them on your roof and walk through the damage together.

How the Claims Process Works

Free Storm Damage Inspection

We inspect your roof, show you photos of what we find, and give you a written report. If the damage doesn’t justify a claim, we will tell you that too.

You File the Claim

If a claim makes sense, you contact your insurance company to open it. We’ll walk you through what to say and what to expect.

We Meet Your Adjuster

We prepare a line-item Xactimate estimate and meet your adjuster on site, so every bit of documented damage is reviewed together on your roof.

Your Roof Gets Done

Once your claim is approved, we schedule the work, complete it on the timeline we give you, and leave you with warranty documentation and a roof built to handle the next storm.

Getting You the Information You Need Before You File

Not every storm leaves damage worth a claim. That is why every insurance job starts with a free inspection. We show you photos of your roof’s condition, explain what we found in plain language, and give you an honest read on whether a claim is worth pursuing. If your roof came through the storm fine, you’ll know that, in writing, and you can put the worry down.

What Does an Insurance Roof Claim Cost You?

On an approved claim, your out-of-pocket cost is typically your policy deductible. Your insurance company covers the rest of the approved work. We put every number in writing before work begins, so you know exactly what to expect. If you’d like help understanding your coverage or your estimate paperwork, bring it to your free inspection, and we’ll go through it with you.

Frequently Asked Questions about A.L.E. Roofing

Does A.L.E Roofing help with roof insurance claims?

Yes. We document storm damage with photos, prepare estimates in Xactimate (the same format your adjuster uses), and meet the adjuster on your roof. You have one point of contact from claim to completed roof.

How do I know if my roof has storm damage?

Common signs include missing or lifted shingles, dents or bruising from hail, granules collecting in gutters, and leaks that appear after a storm. Some hail damage isn’t visible from the ground, so the surest way to know is a free A.L.E inspection. We show you photos of what we find and give you a written report either way.

Should I file an insurance claim for my roof?

File a claim when the documented damage clearly exceeds your deductible and was caused by a covered event like hail or wind. Our free inspection gives you the photos and written report you need to make that call with confidence, and we’ll give you our honest recommendation.

Will my insurance cover a full roof replacement?

It depends on your policy and the extent of the damage. Insurance typically covers damage caused by a specific storm event, not normal wear over time. Thorough documentation is what shows your insurance company the full picture, and that’s exactly what our inspection and Xactimate estimate provide.

What is Xactimate and why does it matter?

Xactimate is the estimating software most insurance companies use to price roof repairs and replacements. Because we build our estimates in the same system, your claim arrives in the format your adjuster already works in, which helps the review move smoothly.

How long does an insurance roof claim take?

Timelines vary by insurance company, but most claims move from filing to approval within a few weeks. Once approved, most shingle roof replacements are completed in one to two days. We keep you updated at every step so you always know where things stand.

How much will a new roof cost if I’m paying out of pocket?

Most asphalt shingle roof replacements in Central Kentucky fall between $9,000 and $18,000, depending on roof size, shingle system, and decking condition. Want a fast ballpark for your home? Click the blue tab to the right or visit our instant quote page.
