Commercial Storm and Hail Risk Across Chicago

The Chicago metro ranks among the top for combined hail, wind, and tornado risk. Large hail punctures TPO and EPDM roofs, harsh freeze-thaw cycles split seams, and water then soaks insulation, drywall, and ceilings, which invites mold growth. Carriers often underpay commercial claims by calling hail marks cosmetic, skipping code upgrades, or leaving out O&P (overhead and profit). Commercial Xactimate estimating services give contractors and public adjusters photo-backed Xactimate line items and code notes desk adjusters cannot ignore.
OUR SERVICES

Commercial Loss Estimates Built for Every Type of Property Damage

Each service below covers one loss type. Every file includes a full scope, clean sketch, photo support, and current pricing, so your commercial estimating stays accurate from inspection to the final payment.
01

Mold Damage Estimates

Mold claims need containment, air scrubbers, antimicrobial treatment, and tear-out of wet drywall and insulation. We price each step, plus clearance testing and rebuild, so no remediation cost gets missed.
02

Fire Damage Estimates

Fire losses go beyond burned materials. We scope soot cleaning, smoke odor sealing, framing, electrical, HVAC duct cleaning, and board-up, then add code upgrades your city requires for the rebuild.
03

Water Damage Estimates

Water claims depend on drying records. We turn moisture readings and equipment days into Xactimate line items for extraction, drying, and demolition, plus full commercial construction estimating for the rebuild.
04

Storm Damage Estimates

Storms lift roof edges, tear flashing, and shift rooftop units. We document each damaged part, then build a commercial roof estimate with edge metal, coping, crane charges, and code items.
05

Hail Damage Estimates

Hail bruises membranes, cracks skylights, and dents HVAC fins and metal panels. We map impact zones and write commercial roofing supplements adding missed tear-off layers, wet insulation, and tapered board.

06

Siding Damage Estimates

Commercial and multifamily siding cannot be patched without a color or profile mismatch. We price vinyl, metal, and fiber cement replacement by elevation, with house wrap, trim, and lifts included.
ABOUT CLAIM GUARD

Claim Guard Writes Commercial Files the Way Carriers Review Them

Claim Guard provides commercial Xactimate estimating services as your outsourced desk. We write in Xactimate, the software most carriers use, and deliver ESX and PDF files priced for your area.

Send a Symbility or carrier estimate, and we compare every item against your measurements to show exactly what is missing.
HOW IT WORKS

How Your Commercial File Moves From Upload to Payment

Our commercial Xactimate estimating services follow four clear steps. Most files move from upload to delivery in about two business days, without adding any extra desk work for your team.
  1. 01

    Submit the File

    Upload photos, roof reports, moisture logs, and the carrier's estimate by email or through your CRM. Our team confirms the loss type, building size, and ZIP code before work begins.

  2. 02

    We Audit the Claim

    A senior estimator checks the carrier's scope line by line. Missing tear-off layers, code items, equipment charges, and O&P get flagged with the photo or report that proves each one.

  3. 03

    Supplement Submitted

    We build the full estimate or supplement in Xactimate, attach photos and code notes, and send a carrier-ready file you can submit yourself, or we submit it for full-service clients.

  4. 04

    Payment Support

    When the carrier pushes back, we answer desk adjuster questions, revise the file, and prepare appraisal support if needed, so approved funds reach your business faster and with fewer delays.

WHAT WE NEED Do

Commercial Xactimate Estimates Need Before We Start?

An estimate is only as strong as the information behind it. Clear photos and accurate numbers help us write a file the carrier can approve quickly. Collect these items before you upload:
Xactimate price lists update regularly, so Claim Guard applies current pricing for each property’s exact location before every single delivery.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions from Contractors

Here are clear answers to questions roofers, contractors, and public adjusters ask most about cost estimating services.

What do commercial estimating services include?

Commercial estimating services cover a full damage scope, a building sketch, Xactimate line items for every trade, photo documentation, code upgrade items, and O&P (overhead and profit). Supplements and appraisal support are often added when carriers underpay claims.
Commercial claim work can be outsourced to professional Xactimate estimating services. Outsourcing removes software fees, training time, and in-house salary costs, and gives contractors extra capacity during busy storm season without adding a full-time estimator to their payroll.
Only the policyholder, a licensed public adjuster, or an attorney can negotiate an insurance claim settlement in Illinois. Contractors may document damage and write repair estimates, but negotiating a claim requires a public adjuster license from the state.
A commercial Xactimate estimate usually takes about 48 hours once photos, measurements, and the carrier scope arrive. Large losses with many buildings or trades may need extra time, and rush service is also available for tight carrier deadlines.
Insurance companies often underpay commercial roof claims because first scopes miss hidden roof layers, wet insulation, code upgrades, and equipment charges. A detailed Xactimate supplement with photos and measurements shows the full cost and gives adjusters approval support.
