FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs)

Your safety comes first. Ensure everyone is safe and avoid hazardous areas. Once safe, document visible damage with photos or videos and contact your insurance company to report the loss.

PEAK Services can assist with emergency tarping, board-up, and stabilization services, helping prevent further damage while your claim is being reviewed.

For smaller-scale exterior repairs, estimates are typically completed and submitted to your adjuster within 7 business days. Larger or more complex projects may require multiple trade assessments and may require more time to complete and submit.

A member of your dedicated support team will keep you informed throughout the process and provide clear expectations around timing.

For higher-value or complex claims a second estimate or ‘control’ estimates may be required. However, for standard residential claims, PEAK Services’ assessment and estimate are often the one and final estimate.

PEAK Services’ estimates are detailed, transparent, and insurance-aligned, which often helps reduce delays, minimize back-and-forth, and streamline approvals.

After you file a claim, an authorized PEAK Services Inspector will assess your property. Our estimating team will then build a professional estimate reflecting the findings from the assessment and submit the estimate to your adjuster. We’ll then work directly with your insurance company to review the estimate, documentation, and repair scopes.

Insurance approvals may happen in stages and can involve revisions to the estimate. PEAK Services manages this process on your behalf—keeping the claim moving forward and keeping you informed every step of the way.

Some insurers offer a cash-out or cash settlement. If this is something you’re considering, speak directly with your adjuster about eligibility and conditions.

While cash-outs may appear convenient, they often place all risk, including the coordination, project management and cost responsibility on the homeowner—and may not account for rising labour or material costs.

By working with PEAK Services, you benefit from:

• Repairs that meet your insurance providers requirements
• Qualified, vetted contractors
• Full project management, safety compliance, and warranty protection

Choosing an authorized restoration partner helps protect both your home and your coverage.

Every project is different. Timelines depend on the extent of damage, material availability, and weather conditions.

Your dedicated Project Coordinator will provide regular updates, so you always know what’s happening and what to expect next.

Once your estimate is approved, scheduling begins. However, timelines may adjust due to weather, supply delays, or unforeseen site conditions.

If anything changes, your Project Coordinator will communicate promptly and clearly.

Yes. Changes must be requested before work is scheduled, materials are ordered, or repairs are performed. Any requested upgrades will be quoted separately of the insurance provider’s estimate, outlining additional costs and potential timeline impacts for your review and approval.

You’ll be assigned a dedicated Project Coordinator and Sales Representative or Adjuster Liaison who oversee your restoration from start to finish.

You’ll receive regular updates by phone or email—and you’ll always know exactly who to contact with questions.

Yes. PEAK Services follows strict safety protocols to protect your property, your family, and our crews throughout the restoration process.

PEAK Services specializes in exterior restoration, including roofing, siding, gutters, windows, doors, and related systems. We manage the entire process—from inspection and insurance coordination to final completion.

All work completed through PEAK Services is backed by insurance-approved warranties and PEAK’s workmanship guarantee. Once your project is complete, you’ll receive documentation to activate applicable warranties.

Your Project Coordinator is your primary point of contact. You can also reach PEAK Services directly at 1-844-282-8741 or info@peakservices.ca.

Coverage varies by policy, so PEAK Services works directly with your insurer to confirm scope and eligibility.

This is dependent on what is included on the policy for coverage. PEAK Services helps consolidate inspections, documentation, and estimates into one coordinated claim to streamline approvals and reduce administrative burden.

Damage should be reported as soon as it is discovered, even if it appears minor. Delayed reporting can lead to coverage complications or claim denials. PEAK Services can perform a rapid exterior assessment and help you determine whether the damage should be formally reported.

PEAK Services acts as your restoration and claims support partner. We provide:

• Thorough damage assessments
• Detailed scope tally of repair
• Damage findings and documentation
• Adjuster communication
• Review of code compliance concerns
• Restoration planning and execution

Our goal is to ensure the full scope of eligible damage is properly identified, documented, and restored.

We recommend you review the claims assessment and management with your handling adjuster. The adjuster may propose the hiring of third-party vendors to handle specific processes of the claim.

If new damage is discovered after a claim has started, PEAK Services will prepare and submit documentation to your handling adjuster and/or insurance provider on your behalf.

Timelines vary based on claim size, building count, and scope of repairs. PEAK Services manages scheduling, phasing, and communications to keep residents informed and disruption to a minimum.

In almost all cases of exterior restoration projects, residents can remain in their units. Work is phased, safety-managed, and scheduled to minimize disruption. If access is required (for balconies, windows, or doors), PEAK Services provides advance notice and coordinated scheduling with property management.

The deductible is the responsibility of the property owner and paid to PEAK Services along with the deposit at the pre-production stages of the claim.

The settlement of cost of repairs is often in relation with the progress of repairs completion. As repairs progress on site, funds are released by the insurance provider to ensure progress invoices are payable in a timely manner.

PEAK Services uses a structured project management with a phased repair scheduling model. This includes:

• Building-by-building scheduling
• Resident communications
• Safety and access controls
• Regular progress updates and communication

This allows work to continue efficiently without overwhelming residents or property managers.

Yes. We coordinate directly with the adjuster, supplying scopes, estimates, progress reports, and completion documentation so you don’t have to manage technical or construction-related discussions.
