Information regarding the 2023 Minnesota Hailstorm
Top 5 Property Claims in Minnesota
-
- Hail Damage: Minnesota is prone to severe thunderstorms that generate large hail, especially during the spring and summer months. Typically occurring in the afternoons and evenings, these hailstorms can produce large hail with the capability of causing extensive damage to roofs, siding and windows, making hail damage one of the most frequent property insurance claims in the state.
- Wind Damage: While the average number of tornadoes that impact Montana is a paltry 2, strong winds including gusts associated with thunderstorms and winter storms do occur quite frequently. These straight-line wind events regularly result in roof shingle loss, siding damage, and fallen trees or branches across all parts of Montana.
- Water Damage: Whether the source is burst pipes, plumbing leaks, or weather-related events like heavy rainfall or snow melt causing flooding, water losses are some of the most frequently claimed damages nationwide and Montana is no exception. These types of losses are often far more wide reaching than the damage they present, and can result in subsequent mold damage to be addressed. It is important to have an experienced contractor and policy expert to make sure all damages are covered and addressed.
- Fire Damage: While not as common as some weather-related claims, structural fires cause damage in Montana. Fire damage claims nearly always involve some level of destruction to homes, outbuildings, and personal belongings. While wildfires are a looming threat annually, accidental fires occur year-round. Because of historically cold wind winters and cooler summers many homes in Minnesota are not equipped with forced air systems relying on fireplaces, wood stoves, and baseboard units for heat. This leads to higher propensity for accidental fires occurring in Minnesota homes. When a fire occurs many times smoke damage is overlooked and not accounted for.
- Snow and Ice Damage: Minnesota has harsh and snow-filled winters which regularly produce insurance claims filed as a result of snow and ice damage. These claims include roof collapses due to heavy snow accumulation, ice dams causing roof leaks, or damage caused by ice storms. While collapses and weight of snow/ice claims are often more catastrophic than ice damming, the latter has become a more prevalent problem in recent years for Minnesota residents. Additionally, the full extent of the damage is often harder to see and quantify.
How We Assist Minnesota Contractors
Contractors and public adjusters are a symbiotic relationship that combines expertise and resources to benefit a mutual client. By recommending a public adjuster when a customer approaches them with a job to restore damage from an insurance claim, contractors can focus on what they do best, restoring properties to their former pre-loss condition while the public adjuster navigates the coverage, representation, and resolution of the property insurance claim. The public adjuster can take the burden (overhead and time) of dealing with the claim off of the contractor to allow them to focus on acquiring and performing more work. We strive to ensure an efficient, cost-effective approach to successfully resolve insurance disputes. If you're a Minnesota contractor, consider partnering with a reputable public adjuster to enhance your ability to deliver exceptional results while minimizing the headaches often associated with property insurance claims.
