Ensuring Contractor Accountability in Storm Repairs

In storm restoration, contractor accountability is one of the most important factors in achieving quality outcomes. Without it, even well-planned projects can face delays, disputes, or reopens.

At All Peril, we provide structured, neutral coordination that ensures accountability from start to finish. By managing documentation, communication, and scheduling, we help contractors stay organized and policyholders stay informed—creating a smoother restoration experience for everyone involved.

The Role of All Peril

All Peril acts as a liaison between policyholders, contractors, and insurance carriers, maintaining neutrality while ensuring accuracy and organization.

Our team focuses on:

  • Coordinating inspection and repair schedules.
  • Verifying complete and accurate documentation.
  • Maintaining open, consistent communication between all parties.

This oversight allows restoration projects to move forward efficiently while maintaining compliance with carrier expectations.

Contractor Documentation

Accountability starts with documentation. Every roofing or restoration contractor working within our coordination network is required to maintain detailed records for each project.

Documentation includes:

  • Full scope-of-work breakdowns.
  • Roofing contractor documentation and photo evidence.
  • Change order and supplement records.
  • Line-item transparency for all estimates.

This approach not only supports claim accuracy but also provides clear accountability for all work performed.

Scope of Loss Review

An accurate scope of loss review ensures that all damages are properly captured before repairs begin.

Our coordination process includes:

  • Reviewing field documentation and inspection findings.
  • Comparing repair scopes to carrier-approved line items.
  • Verifying that any required supplements are clearly documented.

This structured review helps prevent rework and supports both contractors and carriers with clean, organized files.

Storm Restoration Oversight

Storm repairs often involve multiple contractors and trades, which makes oversight essential.

Through our Service Repair Program (SRP), All Peril ensures that each step—from emergency tarping to final roof replacement—is performed efficiently, documented accurately, and communicated clearly.

We also assist with:

  • Hail and wind inspection photos.
  • Change order documentation.
  • Progress and completion verification.

By providing structure and communication, we help maintain accountability without disrupting project flow.

Policyholder Communication Tips

Strong communication is key to contractor accountability. Policyholders can help support smooth progress by:

  • Scheduling regular progress updates or site visits.
  • Keeping written notes of important conversations.
  • Asking contractors to explain changes before approving them.
  • Staying in contact with All Peril for updates on documentation and timelines.

These simple steps help ensure a clear understanding of progress and expectations throughout the storm repair process.

Summary

Contractor accountability is the foundation of successful storm restoration.

At All Peril, we create structure and clarity through detailed documentation, consistent communication, and proactive coordination. By serving as a neutral link between contractors, carriers, and policyholders, we help ensure that every project is completed accurately, efficiently, and transparently.
