how much does fixing up after a big storm usually set you back?

Just read somewhere that after hurricanes or big storms, the average homeowner ends up spending around $8,000 to $10,000 just to get their house back to normal. Kinda shocked me, honestly—I figured insurance covered most of it, but turns out there's a lot of stuff insurance doesn't touch or deductibles that really sting. Makes me wonder if that's typical everywhere or just certain areas... anyone had experience with this kinda thing?

I switched to a white EPDM membrane a few years ago after a nasty hailstorm shredded my old asphalt. Insurance was a headache—they wanted every receipt and spec sheet. The upfront cost was higher, but energy savings and fewer repairs have balanced it out. Fading’s still an issue, though, especially on the south slope.
