The American Family gotcha in Phoenix

Requires impact-resistant shingles on any replacement in high-hail-frequency ZIPs. If your original roof was Class 3 and the adjuster requires Class 4, the cost differential may not be fully covered.

Filing tip: American Family

Ask the adjuster in writing whether Class 4 IR shingles are required for the replacement. Get the answer before you sign a roofer's contract.

Get the report American Family adjusters accept

Enter your Phoenix address. We'll pull satellite imagery, measure the roof to adjuster-grade accuracy, and produce an insurance-ready PDF you can hand your American Family adjuster.

Free for homeowners because we charge contractors for the pro version. You get a reduced free version — no credit card, no obligation.

How to file a American Family Phoenix roof claim

  1. 1.

    Document the damage from the ground

    Photos of tiles in the yard, dented A/C fins, dislodged ridge caps, interior water spots. Don't climb the roof after a monsoon — cracked tiles are slippery and load-bearing paths are compromised.

  2. 2.

    Pull the free roof report

    The report above gives you measurements, an AI age estimate, and every NOAA hail and damaging-wind event within 10 miles of your address over the last 24 months. Bring the PDF to the claim call.

  3. 3.

    Open the claim with American Family

    Ask the adjuster in writing whether Class 4 IR shingles are required for the replacement. Get the answer before you sign a roofer's contract. Get a claim number in writing before anything else.

  4. 4.

    Meet the adjuster prepared

    Have your independent measurements ready. The report you pulled above is the anchor against American Family's in-house or third-party measurements.

  5. 5.

    Verify AZ ROC license on any roofer

    Look up any contractor at roc.az.gov. Storm chasers won't be here for the 10-year warranty — a local licensed AZ ROC roofer will.
