The entire upstairs of a Northwest Indiana home is off-limits because of a rotten roof. The family says they're in limbo, waiting on insurance to help."Those are all buckets full of water, how black they are," said Martha Feliciano giving a tour of what was her bedroom to roofing expert Joshua Grah."I mean, the mold right there is ridiculous.""It's horrible, the smell is horrible," Feliciano said.
"I walked in and I just seen everything splattered all over the floor and I'm like and I closed the door immediately," she said. The damage was even worse than before with debris all over the floor and insulation hanging from the ceiling. Feliciano may be stuck paying for it out-of-pocket.Insurance Information InstituteRuiz explains that roof replacement is usually only covered by insurers for an accidental loss like a wind storm or fire, not for rot and deterioration.

She recently filed a second claim with State Farm and is patiently waiting to see if insurance will cover her this time around.
