Progressive Claim FAQ

Common questions about Progressive gutter claims.

Will Progressive cover hail damage to my gutters?

Yes — sudden hail and wind damage to gutters is typically covered under most Progressive homeowners policies in Kansas City. You'll be responsible for your deductible (commonly $1,500-$2,500 standard in the KC area). Gradual wear, age-related sagging, and maintenance neglect are NOT covered.

How long does a Progressive gutter claim take in Kansas City?

10-14 business days standard for hail/wind. Larger claims or disputed estimates take longer. Major KC storm events (large hail, derecho-style wind) can stretch timelines to 30-45 days due to adjuster volume across the metro.

What documentation do I need to file a Progressive claim?

Photographs of every damaged section with date stamps, your policy number, the date of the damaging event, and a contractor's written estimate. Premier Gutters KC provides the photos and written estimate at no cost — whether you choose us for the repair or not.

What's the most important Progressive claim tip?

Call Progressive Home directly (not your auto agent) for fastest claim assignment.

Should I file the claim myself or hire a public adjuster?

For straightforward gutter damage in the KC metro, file the claim yourself — a public adjuster's 10-20% fee usually outweighs the small uplift they get on a gutter-only claim. Public adjusters make more sense for whole-roof claims, complex multi-trade damage, or denied claims you want to appeal.

What if my Progressive settlement is too low?

Request a supplement. Provide your contractor's detailed line-item estimate and request the adjuster increase the settlement. If denied, you can request a re-inspection or escalate to Progressive's appeals process. Premier provides the detailed estimate that justifies the supplement at no charge.

Can Premier Gutters KC bill Progressive directly?

Usually no — the settlement check is paid to you (and your mortgage lender if applicable). You then pay Premier when work completes. We provide a final invoice that matches the approved scope, so your records are clean for your insurance file.
