Meet Don Kaider.

5 years Public Adjusting experience · 15 years in contracting · 9+ years running DJK.

Don Kaider has spent more than two decades in storm restoration and the insurance-claim side of it, and has owned DJK Restoration, Inc. for nine-plus years. He has documented hundreds of roof claims to carrier scope. That experience is what lets him write a report a carrier cannot easily dismiss, so each home is restored to pre-storm condition.

Most roofers walk away when the carrier pushes back on a line item. Don does not, because he has spent his career on the documentation side of the claim. He knows what the carrier expects to see, what a first estimate leaves off, and how to support it in writing. The result, for a homeowner: a fully documented scope and the work done correctly.

Don's greatest strength is connecting with the homeowner, diagnosing the problem (storm-related or just an aging roof) and guiding them through the process to a positive result. He answers his own phone, walks every roof, and signs every contract. He is the person you talk to from start to finish.

He runs DJK out of the Atlanta Metro with his own crews. Same standards on every job, and the same owner on the phone, on the roof, and at the adjuster's table.

What Makes DJK Different

Five things most contractors won't do.

5 years on the adjuster's side

Don spent five years on the insurance side as a Licensed Public Adjuster. He reads a roof the way a carrier's adjuster reads it, and documents it that way. Most roofers cannot.

Our own crews on every job

Four crews across metro Atlanta, mixed across roofing, siding, and gutters. The foreman on your job has likely done the previous house on the block.

One owner, start to finish

No franchise model, no commissioned sales reps. Don inspects the roof, writes the quote, signs the contract, and answers his own phone after the job is done.

10-year craftsmanship warranty

Manufacturer warranty (25-50 years (25 on standard shingles, 50 on premium)) is registered in your name. DJK's 10-year craftsmanship warranty is transferable to the next owner if you sell. Most contractors will not put that in writing.

Financing via Hearth Finance

For non-insurance projects, we finance through Hearth Finance, a real lender, not a contractor markup. Same-day decisions on most applications.

Bilingual · English + Spanish

Don and the team handle inspections, paperwork, and the full claim process in both languages, including with Spanish-speaking carriers' adjusters.
