Farmers Hail Claim Guide — Colorado

Farmers Insurance is a significant carrier across Colorado. Their claims process varies somewhat by policy vintage — older Farmers policies sometimes have different coverage structures than newer ones.

How Farmers Handles CO Hail Claims

Farmers uses a combination of internal staff and contracted IA adjusters. After large hail events they frequently use third-party catastrophe teams. Scope issues on initial estimates are common and supplementing is a routine part of complex claims.

Common Scope Gaps We See

  • Permit and code upgrade items
  • Full gutter system not captured when hail damage is extensive
  • O&P omitted on multi-trade projects
  • High depreciation on older roofs

Supplements We've Successfully Won

  • Permit costs and code upgrade line items
  • O&P on GC-managed exterior jobs
  • Additional damage documentation accepted
