Lightweight tile gives Diamond Heights owners the look without the structural upgrade older framing would otherwise need.

As a rule, we work alongside the adjuster on Diamond Heights claims rather than around them, which keeps the scope honest and the timeline shorter. Put simply, insurance the job in Diamond Heights turns on documentation. Damage recorded in advance of anything is touched is the difference between a paid claim and a denied one. San Francisco County is no different. Wind and storm harm on a Diamond Heights roof is covered where it is documented; wear is not covered anywhere.
