FAQ
How soon after wind damage occurs do I need to file a claim in Alabama?
Most Alabama homeowner insurance policies require you to report wind damage promptly—typically within 30 to 60 days of the loss. However, you should notify your insurer as soon as possible after the storm, ideally within 24 to 48 hours, to avoid any coverage disputes. Check your specific policy's 'duties after loss' section for the exact deadline.
What documentation do I need to support a wind damage claim in Alabama?
You should gather date-stamped photos and videos of all visible damage, a list of damaged or destroyed personal property with estimated values, receipts or records for major items, any temporary repair invoices (like emergency tarping), and local weather reports or storm data confirming wind events on the date of loss. A licensed Alabama public adjuster or restoration contractor can also provide a written damage assessment to strengthen your claim.
