PAGE GUIDE

What to know.

After a major hail or wind event, the roofs in an affected neighborhood all need attention at once, and the contractors who arrive first are frequently the ones who followed the storm in from out of state. CMAC operates permanently in these markets. Our Dallas–Fort Worth, Oklahoma City, Austin, Houston, and Nashville teams live where the storms hit, which is why we are still reachable long after the storm-chasers have moved on.

01SCOPE MODULE

What to do in the first 24 hours

  • Deal with safety first — downed lines, standing water near electrical, and structural damage. Leave the building if there is any doubt.
  • Photograph everything from the ground, including hail on the lawn, dented gutters and garage doors, and any interior water staining. Timestamps matter.
  • Get water out of the building. Standing water becomes a mold problem within a day or two, not a week.
  • Cover active leaks if it is safe to do so from inside. Do not climb a wet or damaged roof.
  • Call for a professional inspection before you call your carrier, so you file knowing what actually happened.
02SCOPE MODULE

Full-scope storm response

CMAC handles the whole chain rather than a piece of it: emergency water mitigation and structural drying, debris removal, roof repair or replacement, gutters, garage doors, siding and window damage, interior repairs, and full reconstruction. Water mitigation runs 24/7 because water damage is measured in hours.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Common questions

Will CMAC work with my insurance company?

CMAC can document visible damage, provide a contractor report, and attend the carrier’s inspection to explain the proposed repair scope. CMAC is a contractor, not a public adjuster or law firm, and does not interpret policy coverage or represent a policyholder in a coverage dispute.

Should I file my claim before or after the inspection?

Get the inspection first. Filing a claim without knowing what the damage actually is puts you in the position of arguing from a weaker footing, and a claim that gets denied still sits on your record. CMAC inspects first, documents visible and hidden damage, and gives you a professional report. Then you call your carrier with facts in hand.

What happens with my deductible?

Your insurance policy and applicable state law govern the deductible. Do not accept a promise to hide or misrepresent a deductible on project documents. Ask your carrier or a qualified local adviser about your obligations, and make sure the contract and invoice accurately describe what you pay.

My roof looks fine from the ground. Could it still be damaged?

Frequently, yes. Hail bruises the mat underneath the granule surface, and that bruising is often invisible from the ground and sometimes hard to see from a ladder. It shortens the roof’s life and creates the leaks you will discover a year or two later, after your claim window has closed. That is why documented post-storm inspections matter.

Does CMAC offer emergency service?

Yes, for the situations that genuinely cannot wait: 24/7 emergency response for water mitigation, and 24/7 emergency garage door repair. Storm response work is dispatched as fast as conditions and crew availability allow after an event.
