Re: Hail Damage/Who can be approved.
Mark,

You are entitled to do the work for yourself, but the Insurance Company may play games with the total amount of funds that rightfully should be paid for the project.

I have seen so many out of town contractors set up in the Algonquin and Lake In The Hills and surrounding areas, that I even noted that the Village of Algonquins website has issued a warning regarding the Storm Chasing Roofing Companies who showed up in abindance right after last months hail.

Open up Last Years Yellow Page Book and have a Local Roofing and Siding Contractor evaluate your roof and write up a written proposal with a price.

Any contractor who has you sign a piece of paper with no specifications and contract price on it, is just playing the game of chance that the insurance company will pay something for the job and they will farm out the cheapest illegal subcontractor that they can find at the last minute and tell you that is one of their professional installation crews.
