Storm climate
Why Vermont sees so many storm claims
New England roofs are worked hardest by wind — coastal nor'easters, the remnants of tropical systems in late summer, and winter ice and snow load. A mature tree canopy makes wind-driven limb and tree strikes one of the region's most common roof claims. Across Vermont's 14 counties, the roofs most exposed to wind and nor'easters see the heaviest claim volume during the fall nor'easter season and winter.

Vermont claim deadline
Filing deadlines & deductibles in Vermont
Reporting: Report storm damage to your insurer promptly, most policies require notice 'as soon as practicable' after the loss.
Deadline: The deadline to file and to sue on a property claim is set by your policy and your state's law, and varies widely. Don't wait: read your policy's 'suit against us' / claim-reporting clause and confirm with your state insurance department.
Deductibles: Many policies in storm-prone areas use a separate wind/hail deductible, a percentage (commonly 1%–5%) of your dwelling limit rather than a flat dollar amount. Check your declarations page.
General information, not legal advice — verify with Your state's Department of Insurance (search '[state] department of insurance storm claim'). For the full picture, read our claim time limits by state and roof deductibles guides.
