Expert Guidance for Commercial Property Owners Facing Roof Damage and Insurance Claims
When it comes to commercial properties, a well-maintained roof is crucial for protecting your investment and ensuring business continuity. Shingled commercial roofs, while durable and cost-effective, can be susceptible to various types of damage that may require insurance claims. At Precision Public Adjusting, we specialize in helping commercial property owners navigate the complex world of insurance claims for shingled roof damage. Our expertise ensures you receive fair compensation to restore your property and minimize business disruption.
Understanding Shingled Commercial Roofs
Shingled roofs are a popular choice for many commercial buildings due to their affordability, versatility, and relatively easy installation and maintenance. Common types of shingles used in commercial applications include:
Asphalt Shingles
The most common and economical option
Architectural Shingles
More durable and aesthetically pleasing than standard asphalt shingles
Wood Shingles
Offer a natural look but require more maintenance
Slate Shingles
Extremely durable but more expensive
Each type of shingle has its own lifespan, durability characteristics, and susceptibility to different types of damage. Understanding these factors is crucial when assessing damage and filing insurance claims.
Common Causes of Damage to Shingled Commercial Roofs
Commercial shingled roofs can suffer damage from various sources, including:
Weather-Related Damage
Hail storms
High winds
Heavy snow and ice accumulation
Extreme temperature fluctuations
Water Damage
Leaks due to damaged or missing shingles
Ice dams
Poor drainage
Structural Issues
Building settling
Inadequate ventilation
Improper installation
Age-Related Deterioration

Understanding the cause of damage is crucial for filing an accurate insurance claim and ensuring proper repairs.
The Importance of Professional Assessment
When your commercial shingled roof suffers damage, it’s essential to have a professional assessment before filing an insurance claim. At Precision Public Adjusting, we work with experienced roofing contractors to provide a thorough evaluation of your roof’s condition. This assessment includes:

- Documentation of all visible damage
- Assessment of underlying structural integrity
- Evaluation of potential hidden damage

A professional assessment not only helps in accurately documenting the damage for your insurance claim but also ensures that all issues are identified and addressed, preventing future problems.
