Hail Damage MN---Tips for victims of Hail Damage

Hail Damage Minnesota-----Hail Damage Plymouth/Hail Damage Golden Valley/Hail Damage St. Louis Park

Due to the large response of my last posting (MN Hail Damage, Door to Door Salesperson) I felt another positing would be justified. I have received countless emails about the fearful 'DoorKnocker'. I now hear radio advertisements and recieve mailers explaining the negative issues with the DoorKnockers. The other day I was visited by yet another contracting company on my front door step. In fact, I was propositioned by the DoorKnocker that his company would pay for my deductible...which is totally illegal. I hope you find the information below helpful. I only hope to educate and assist property owners with Hail Damage in Minnesota.

Tips for Victims of Hail Damage/Storm Damage:

*Ask friends, relatives, and business associates for recommendations.

*Check out the contractor with the Better Business Bureau, either 888-646-6222 or www.mnd.bbb.org

*Contact the Secretary of State to determine if the contractor is registered to do business in Minnesota. 800-657-3602

*Ask for proof of Insurance, both General liability and Worker's Compensation.

*Be sure that the name, address, license number, and phone number appear on all invoices.

*Be suspicious if you're asked to pay for the entire job up front. The down payment should be no more than one-half of the total contract price.


*Before you sign the contract, make sure that all the oral promises are also included in the written contract.

*Do not sign any contract that gives exclusive rights to the contractor for the work to be done. If the cooperating contractor leaves your roof unfinished/inadequate, then you will not be able to hire another contractor.

*Ask for references and if possible, go look at the contractor's completed work.

Please remember: Property owners have one year to make the claim for hail damage. Hail damage may not be evident to the naked eye immediately, but in time, there could be accelerated deterioration to your roof.
