We Help Spokane Homeowners Get the Roof They Deserve

Dealing with a storm-damaged roof is stressful enough without having to fight your insurance company for a fair settlement. All Terrain Roofing has extensive experience working with insurance adjusters across Spokane and North Idaho, and we advocate for homeowners every step of the way — from the initial inspection and documentation to the final repair or replacement.
Our goal is simple: make sure you get the full scope of work your home needs, not just the minimum your insurance company is willing to pay.

Do You Really Need 3 Estimates for Your Insurance Claim?

One of the most common questions we hear is whether three estimates are required before submitting an insurance claim. In most cases the answer is no — but it’s always worth checking your specific policy to be sure.
Here’s a real-world example that shows why chasing the lowest estimate can actually hurt you:

Insurance Estimate: $10,000

Roofer #1: $9,000

Cheapest bid. But where are they cutting corners? Lower bids often mean cheaper materials, skipped steps, or subcontractors you've never met.

Roofer #2: $15,000

Higher than the insurance estimate, but here's what matters: experienced contractors justify every line item. When presented with a detailed, professional estimate, most insurance companies will agree to the higher number — because the work is documented and defensible.

Roofer #3:

I'll do whatever the insurance company says' — This sounds safe, but insurance adjusters are not professional roofers. They may miss damaged components, underestimate material costs, or overlook items that will cause problems down the road.

The right contractor isn’t the cheapest — it’s the one who knows the insurance process, documents everything thoroughly, and advocates for your home. That’s All Terrain Roofing.
