I measured the roof with a long, flexible tape with a tennis ball attached to the end. More than one friend had stepped off a roof and hit the shrubbery when attempting to measure a roof. They'd hooked their tape to the ridge and backed down the slope, pulling their tape measure, and inadvertently stepped off the roof edge.

Some time ago there was on old adage, "You can't fight City Hall." There is a similar perception when it comes to the insurance industry. Many believe that the insurance industry is untouchable, and disputing a claim with them will be a fight you simply can't win. However, that is actually the biggest problem... trying to WIN! It's not about who wins and who loses, it should only be about the wind damage caused by the storm and the costs. Who wins and who loses causes differences and arguments that rarely have anything to do with the storm damages or the amount needed for proper settling of the claim.
