Repairability Tests, Brittle Tests & Real-World Roofing Evidence

Many denials and “repair only” decisions are based on the assumption that shingles can be easily lifted, unfastened, and replaced without causing more damage. In the real world, older or storm-damaged shingles can crack, crease, or tear when manipulated. We perform repairability and brittle tests to see what actually happens on your roof — and then document those results clearly.

1. Independent Storm Damage Roof Inspection

We start with a fresh look. Our team walks the roof, checks all slopes, looks for impact marks, lifted shingles, creases, missing shingles, prior repair attempts, and signs of wind-driven damage. We take detailed photos and video in the areas the carrier may have overlooked.

2. Repairability & Brittle Testing Where They Want to “Repair Only”

When an estimate calls for a small repair, we test those exact areas. We carefully lift shingles, test the seal, and check how they respond. If shingles crack, crease, or fail, we document those results with photos and explain why a repair may not be feasible or code-compliant.

3. Documentation, Code References & Support for Re-Inspection

We combine photos, brittle test results, roof measurements, and applicable building code or manufacturer references into a clear package. If your policy and evidence support it, we can be present for a re-inspection to walk the adjuster through real damage on the roof.

Common Questions About Denied or Underpaid Roof Insurance Claims

Does a denied claim mean I have no options?

Not always. Sometimes important damage was missed, slopes were not fully inspected, or repairability was not properly tested. An independent inspection and fresh documentation can clarify whether a re-inspection or supplemental review is reasonable.

What if my carrier says the roof is “repairable” but you say it is not?

We do not override your policy or coverage decisions, but we do provide real-world roofing evidence. If shingles crack, crease, or tear during a realistic repair attempt, that can support the argument that a patch will not restore the roof to pre-loss condition. We present those results clearly so the carrier can make an informed decision.

Will you talk to my insurance adjuster?

Yes. We commonly meet adjusters on site, point out storm damage, explain repairability issues, and walk them through the actual roof conditions from a contractor’s perspective. We stay in our lane — the roofing side of the claim — and let the carrier decide coverage.
