What should I do immediately after a storm damages my Longueuil roof?
Document everything you can safely photograph from ground level or through windows before any repair work begins. Call your insurer to open a claim and request an adjuster visit. Arrange emergency tarping only through an RBQ-licensed contractor to protect the interior from further damage, and keep a copy of the tarp invoice as part of your claim. Avoid signing a full repair authorization until the adjuster has completed their assessment, unless the insurer explicitly approves the contractor's scope in advance.
Will my Quebec home insurance cover roof storm damage in Longueuil?
Most standard Quebec homeowners' policies cover sudden and accidental damage from wind, hail, and ice storms, but coverage terms vary. Gradual deterioration or maintenance-related failure is typically excluded. Your insurer may require that damage meet a minimum threshold before triggering a claim. Review your policy's Section B (property coverage) carefully and ask the adjuster to explain which items fall under the deductible. A contractor with Quebec insurance-claim experience can help you interpret what is coverable versus what is maintenance.
How do I verify a contractor's RBQ licence before emergency storm repairs in Longueuil?
Visit the RBQ public registry at rbq.gouv.qc.ca and enter the contractor's name or the licence number they provide. Confirm the licence class covers the type of work — roofing typically falls under the 7.0 subclass — and verify the licence is active, not suspended or expired. Do this check before signing anything, not after. After major storm events on the South Shore, unlicensed crews occasionally canvass neighborhoods; the registry lookup takes only a few minutes and protects you legally and financially.
