Ricky Campopiano, owner of Campo Roof, said insurers sometimes push back on full replacements.
CLEVELAND, Ohio - Hail slammed parts of Northeast Ohio Wednesday, with Cuyahoga County seeing two-inch hail for the first time in six years. Homes in the Solon area were hit hard. Windows were busted out, siding was punctured, and roofs need repair.
Ricky Campopiano, Owner of Campo Roofing, said his phone started ringing when he opened for business, primarily from people in the Solon area.“Pretty much every roof that I looked at had damage that you could see from the ground. It was a no-brainer, it has to get replaced,” he said. Many homeowners likely called their insurance companies Thursday. Campopiano said insurers sometimes push back on full replacements. “A lot of the times companies don’t want to replace all of the shingles, they just want to replace a facet or two,” he said. Under Ohio law, if new shingles don’t match the color or quality of the ones already on a roof, the insurance company may be required to replace more of the roof until it looks the way it did before the storm.Campopiano said after protecting the home the process involves identifying damage and having insurance come out to make sure everyone is on the same page when it comes to method of repair. With so many homes damaged across northeast Ohio, repairs could take months or even years, depending on how bad the damage is, Campopiano said.Rocky River High School baseball team coaches resign after incident with fraternity members in Myrtle Beach, SCBody found wrapped in blankets near Canton creek identified as 46-year-old womanCavs relying on flexibility headed into playoffs
