No. Your roof is not covered. Roof repairs are considered regular maintenance. The policy will only cover interior damages that occur subsequently to your roof damage. 

Claims can be reopened and you may request additional payments as long as your damages are properly documented.

Absolutely not. The only people authorized in the State of Florida to negotiate and settle a claim are the policyholder, a public adjuster, like Gold Coast licensed Public Adjusters, and an attorney.

No, you shouldn’t have called them. Calling them right away is the conventional wisdom drummed into policyholder minds from insurance company advertising.

All of these agents have a contractual obligation and get paid by the insurance company.
