The supplement file
Siding storm work arrives as a supplement to a roof claim already scoped — winning it is a documentation job, not a canvass.
Zaras for Siding
Storm supplements, full replacements, and matching that has to be documented.
Crews run from June clear through December — siding does not stop for the holidays, it stops in February. Hail season loads the front half of the year, so the record has to hold a claim opened in May and the supplement it becomes, paid out in September.
What carries season to season: elevation photos profile and color the supplement trail.
An adjuster meeting, a supplement filed on a discontinued profile, and a retail replacement closing — three different jobs, one operating record.
Adjuster meeting
Test squares shot by elevation, photos filed against the claim — not a camera roll that has to be hunted down when the supplement gets challenged.
Retail replacement closes
A fiber-cement estimate with color selections approved, deposit collected, and the install scheduled — a curb-appeal sale, not a failure replacement.
Siding money comes from two engines — the storm work that rides someone else’s claim, and the retail replacements sold on their own resale value. Zaras runs both from the same record.
Siding storm work arrives as a supplement to a roof claim already scoped — winning it is a documentation job, not a canvass.
The retail lane is a discretionary improvement sale — fiber-cement recoups over its cost at resale, not a failure replacement sold on urgency.
The record, not the folder — every job from the claim to paid, with nothing re-keyed into a second system.
Per-elevation damage documentation — test squares and photos filed by face, findable months later when the supplement gets challenged.
Claim and supplement tracking — every supplement tied to the original claim it rode in on, not a loose line item.
Matching and profile records — discontinued colors and profiles documented once, argued from the record every time.
Retail replacement estimates with selections — material, profile, and color built into the estimate itself.
Deposits on approval — collected the moment the estimate is signed.
Install scheduling — booked from the approved estimate, no re-entry.
Material orders tied to the job — color and profile selections carry straight through to the order.
Invoicing, payments, QuickBooks sync — billing runs from the same record the claim or the estimate opened.
Claim → scope → supplement → install → paid — every siding job, one record.
