Sections you'd actually receive
Sections that don't apply to a asphalt shingle on a storm / insurance claim path aren't shown — they're not padding for your invoice. Sections greyed out and struck through are in the report structure but not included at the Standard Report tier.

What we'd document on your roof
Sample findings for a asphalt shingle roof on a storm / insurance claim job. Your report substitutes real photos, counts, and remaining-life ranges from your property.
Hail bruising (HAAG 10×10 test squares)
Per-slope bruise count with chalk marks; adjuster-ready photos.
Wind creasing / mat exposure
Slope-specific crease count for the wind portion of the claim.
Collateral (soft metals, screens, HVAC)
Documents the storm hit hard enough to damage soft metals — supports roof approval.
Your report will not look identical — and that's the point.
What stays the same
- · The section structure and page order.
- · The 48-hour turnaround (72 for Comprehensive).
- · HAAG / FAA-107 inspector sign-off with 20+ yrs NM roofing behind it.
- · Written scope you can hand to any contractor.
- · Neutral, no-financial-interest language throughout.
What changes on every roof
- · Total page count (3–5 for Snapshot; 50+ for Litigation).
- · Number of photos (this sample: ~10; some reports: 60+).
- · Findings — a leak-free tile roof reads very differently from a hail-hit shingle roof.
- · Repair vs replace verdict and remaining-life estimate.
- · Price — see the live calculator.
