Storm Damage Roofing

When the storm clears, your phones should not become a second disaster

Converzaq prioritizes active leaks, documents insurance stage, and captures addresses fast—so tarp crews and inspectors work from a Hot list, not chaos.

Weather drives volume

Post-storm call surges bury urgent tarp jobs under inspection requests

Entire neighborhoods call within two hours of the same hail core. Without triage, a family with water pouring into the kitchen waits behind twenty cosmetic inspection requests.

Homeowners ask conflicting insurance advice they heard on social media. Your office repeats documentation steps while the next caller needs emergency tarp guidance.

CAT teams driving from out of town need addresses grouped by zone—not scattered voicemails with half-spoken cross streets.

  • Cosmetic hail calls crowd out active leaks
  • Insurance process explained inconsistently
  • Duplicate calls from same household
  • Adjuster timing questions consume dispatch

Storm damage intake workflow

Weather event context first, then insurance and mobilization.

  1. Step 1

    Storm context

    Date, hail/wind, ongoing weather.

  2. Step 2

    Safety and leak triage

    Active water, tarp need, occupant safety.

  3. Step 3

    Insurance stage

    Claim filed, adjuster date, carrier if shared.

  4. Step 4

    Hot prioritization

    Active leaks and structural risks rank first.

  5. Step 5

    CAT dispatch callback

    Team confirms tarp or inspection slot.

Does not adjust claims or guarantee insurance approval—documents your inspection process only.

Storm damage caller questions

Use insurer-neutral language approved by your team.

  • “Should I call insurance or you first?”
  • “Can you tarp if it is still raining?”
  • “What photos should I take before you arrive?”
  • “Will you be here when the adjuster comes?”
  • “My whole block is damaged—are you in our area?”
  • “Is hail damage always worth a claim?”
  • “How long until permanent repair after tarp?”
