Quick answer
Calgary hail-damage claims typically pay out between $8,000 and $22,000 (full replacement, minus deductible). Wind and tree-fall claims typically $3,000 to $14,000 (partial). Here are the real ranges — and why we routinely get 1.8× the initial adjuster number.

The answer to “how much will my insurance pay” depends on three things: your specific policy (replacement-cost vs actual-cash-value), the damage scope your adjuster writes, and how aggressively the scope is supplemented. We control the third lever — which is why our typical hail-claim outcome is full replacement at deductible-only cost to the homeowner.
