Fort Wayne and Northeast Indiana face severe weather year-round — from spring hailstorms and summer wind events to winter ice dams.
After a major storm, thousands of Fort Wayne homeowners discover roof damage — some obvious like missing shingles, and some hidden like hail bruising that weakens shingles from within. Either way, untreated storm damage leads to leaks, mold, structural damage, and dramatically shorter roof lifespan. Getting a professional inspection immediately after a storm is critical.
Big Dog Roofing provides free, no-obligation storm damage inspections. We document every detail with high-resolution photos and videos from ground level and on the roof. This documentation is exactly what your insurance company needs to process your claim efficiently. We know how insurance adjusters evaluate damage, and we make sure nothing is missed.
We guide you through the entire insurance claim process — from filing the initial claim to meeting with the adjuster to understanding your settlement. We've helped hundreds of Fort Wayne homeowners navigate insurance claims successfully. You should only be responsible for your deductible.
If you have visible damage from hail, wind, or fallen debris, yes. Your homeowner's insurance exists for exactly this purpose. Even if you're unsure about damage, a free inspection from Big Dog Roofing will tell you definitively. If there's no damage, we'll tell you honestly — we never push unnecessary claims.
Hail damage isn't always visible from the ground. Signs include dented gutters or downspouts, damage to AC units or outdoor furniture, and dark spots or bruising on shingles. A professional inspection is the only reliable way to assess hail damage. We inspect for free.
In Indiana, rate changes are typically applied to your entire ZIP code based on regional storm activity — not individual claims. If a storm hit your area, your rates may increase whether you file or not. It makes sense to use the coverage you're paying for.
