A very large sction of my roof blew of in the Jan3rd storm.The roof is 3yrs old and is very damaged. One roofer said that I need a whole new roof. I also have copper on the roof and it needs to be replaced as well. Do you think my insurance co. will pay for this

First its not a good idea to piggyback your question on someone else's. This can lead to confusion. You should start a new thread. So I've moved your question to its own thread.

It depends on what your insurance policy covers. If storm damage is covered they should pay. But why ask us? Why didn't you call your insurance agent IMMEDIATELY after the storm to file a claim?

I don't know about your compnay but mine will not take a claim 5 months later. Did you at least report it back in January like Scott asks. The normal home owners insurance should cover the replacement but the amount will be determined by the adjuster and not necessarily the bids you get, get 3 bids.
