Common Storm Damage Claim Issues
Insurer-appointed assessors routinely underscope storm damage. These are the most common items ClaimGuard recovers for clients.
Roof Damage
Lifted, cracked or missing tiles and sheeting — often underscoped by insurer-appointed assessors.
Water Ingress
Secondary water damage to ceilings, insulation and internal linings caused by storm breaches.
Gutters & Fascia
Damaged gutters, downpipes and fascia boards routinely excluded from insurer scopes.
Structural Damage
Wind loading damage to structural elements — often disputed by insurers citing pre-existing wear.
Fencing & Outbuildings
Damaged fences, sheds and outbuildings excluded or undervalued in settlement offers.
Contents Damage
Storm-related contents losses undervalued or incorrectly excluded from building claim scopes.
How ClaimGuard Maximises Storm Damage Payouts
Independent Assessment
Our experts inspect your property and document all storm damage — including what the insurer's assessor missed.
Full Scope Preparation
We prepare a complete scope of works at true reinstatement values, not depreciated substitutes.
Insurer Negotiation
We negotiate directly with your insurer, backed by independent evidence and policy analysis.
Dispute Resolution
If the insurer won't pay fairly, we escalate through IDR and AFCA on your behalf.
