Home Insurance claim

 

Whether it is a burglar, a fire, or a hurricane, it is always devastating. Check your policy or call your agent to see what is covered. If the incident has already happened, that is not the time when you want to find out what is not covered.

 

As soon as the claim occurs or as soon as you realize there is a claim, there are a few steps you need to take.

 

  • burnthouseTake pictures of all damages – the more you have, the better.
  • You are responsible for stopping any further damage that could have been prevented within reason.
  • Any money you spend, keep your receipts for the adjuster.
  • Have an independent agent to direct you to the right people for help.

 

Call one of our experienced staff today! We would happily discuss your policy even if you are with someone else.
