I would think a reputable Insurance Co. would cover damages caused by the weather. Maybe its time to get a new carrier.

When you're at the reply screen, scroll down to the 'Additional Options' section, and in the second section titled 'Attach Files,' hit the 'Manage Attachments' button. You should be able to figure it out from there (Browse -> file -> Upload).

Sorry to hear that man, you should threaten your insurance company with leaving them to see if they might work with you a bit.

softball size....if you notice in the background of the pictures how every tree is leafless....thats b/c of the hail and were in the late stages of spring so those trees were full of leaves. It looks like the dead of winter out here...

yea man you have to really shop around for some good insureance cause some companys count hail as in "ACT OF GOD" so the company will not cover it. i think that is pretty lame of the company but yea man it is good to here you are geting it fixed and also get a sweet CF HOOd
