Wildfire damage in California? An adjuster-ready packet changes the claim conversation.
A typical asphalt shingle roof in California costs $15,000–40,000 to replace out of pocket. If storm damage is the reason you need one, your insurance should be paying — but the difference between "denied" and "approved" is almost always documentation. Wildfire ember damage on asphalt and wood shingle roofs; most carriers now require Class A fire-rated materials on replacement. Our Insurance Claim Packet gives you adjuster-ready scope, NOAA storm verification, and a cover letter for California carriers like State Farm, Farmers, Allstate. Delivered in under 12 hours.

FAQ
California homeowner questions
Will my California insurance accept this packet?
The packet is formatted around the Xactimate line-item scope that all major carriers in California use, plus NOAA storm verification and adjuster-friendly cover copy. Most adjusters we've worked with read these packets before their own field report.
How long does delivery take?
Under 12 hours from order. Storm-season queues can stretch to 18 hours during peak weeks; we update you if your packet is in one of those queues.
Is this legal advice or a guarantee of approval?
Neither. It's documentation. Having better documentation improves your odds, but your carrier makes the final coverage call based on your policy and the actual damage.
