What to Do Once You Notice Damage

The first thing you should do is to ensure your and your family’s safety. In extreme situations like broken power lines, fires, or flooded basements, it’s best to call emergency services rather than trying anything by yourself.

For more minor issues, you should secure the area first to prevent the spread of damage. This means turning your water line or electricity off, putting up covers on your roof or window, and more. This step is necessary, as some insurance companies require you to mitigate losses as best as you can. We are available to assist in this case. Just contact us for directions or advice.

Next, you should call your agent or insurance carrier to report the loss. They will generally get back to you in one to two days to talk about the extent of the damage. If it’s small, and you are uncertain about the total amount, we are here to review it and advise. Our team is also ready to help if your policy carrier drops you in case of a large loss.

Assisting You Throughout the Process

In most cases, an adjuster representing your insurance carrier will come to your property to inspect the loss. They might also write an estimate for the damages and issue payment off that amount. Usually, depreciation is applied, and they will pay actual cash value less your deductible.

Finding an Insurance Contractor

Ensuring Accurate Estimates

Usually, issues can be resolved with good communication. That is why it’s important to give accurate facts or data to your adjuster or carrier. Our team can help check for any discrepancies in your claim or estimate. We will also assist the claim representative by writing an accurate estimate on the same software they most often use.

As an added safeguard, we will take detailed photos of the repair process (before, during, and after) for documentation purposes. These images will serve as evidence that all the repairs are necessary and warranted.

Restoration work can only begin once an accurate and agreed-upon estimate is given. Working before an amount is settled can put us and the property owner in financial trouble.
