How Do Roofers Get The Catch-All Covered by Insurance?
🔹 Can The Catch-All Be Supplemented in Insurance Claims?
Yes—roofers get The Catch-All covered by insurance carriers every day. It just requires the right documentation and presentation. While The Catch-All team is not licensed to give official insurance advice, we can share what successful contractors are doing.
🔹 Common Approach Used by Roofers
Most roofers supplement The Catch-All as labor hours or property protection, not as a line-item product.
Recommended documentation:
- Photos before, during, and after setup
- Detailed description of what the system protects (siding, windows, flowerbeds, landscaping)
- Time logs or man-hour estimates for setup/teardown
- Notes about what would have been damaged if The Catch-All hadn’t been used
🔹 Supporting Arguments Roofers Use
- Homeowner policies require contractors to prevent further damage to the property
- Using The Catch-All is a reasonable and professional step to avoid damage
- It can be cheaper than replacing plants, broken siding, or damaged gutters

🔹 Pro Tips from the Field
- Use language like "job site protection" or "property protection labor"
- Don’t expect a specific line item—document the labor, not the product
- Show before/after of flower beds, siding, and gutters in perfect condition
🔹 Backup Plan (If Insurance Denies It)
Even if it doesn’t get paid, most contractors say they:
- Don’t charge extra
- Use it as a sales tool
- Or include it as a free bonus to help close the deal
“Roofers use The Catch-All because it gets them five-star reviews, not because it always gets paid for.”
