Brian listed all of our damage out to the adjuster and then he asked us if we had any damage to our air conditioning units. We answered no because they'd been working. Well, we later went to check them out and one was damaged (the other was shielded by our deck).
We had someone out today to check the unit out to see if it could be repaired. Apparently this hole cannot be fixed and will probably start leaking. So we need a whole new unit.
This is going to be a huge insurance claim!
So far we think our roof didn't leak during the storm. We're supposed to have rain tomorrow so even though it's damaged, we hope the roof is going to hold up for awhile. We don't want to have to add internal house damage to our claim!
It's amazing though the number of blue tarps on the houses around us. And probably 75% of the houses in our neighborhood have at least one broken window.
With so much damage in the area, it's difficult to get contractors out to do estimates. We were able to get a siding contractor out here on Thursday to give us an estimate for the siding, fascia, garage trim, and window screens. He also took our broken window pane with him and had it repaired and returned to us on Friday. He's bringing out his gutter guy on Wednesday. Also on Wednesday we're having someone come out to do an estimate on our garage doors. The company that we had out today to look at our air conditioning unit also does roofs. We're probably going to use them since the roofer we've used before is so busy we haven't been able to get him to our house yet.
