A short checklist for Murray County homeowners
- Check soft metals first: gutters, downspouts, vents and AC fins show hail before shingles do.
- Do not climb the roof yourself; a roofer with fall protection should.
- Pin down the date of loss before you file. How to choose it.
- Tarp active leaks and keep receipts. Your duty to mitigate.
- Never sign anything that waives or covers your deductible. Georgia law on deductibles.
