Claims paperwork

Your insurer decides coverage. Our job is the documentation: where the water came from, what got wet, readings each day, and what had to be removed. You stay in control of your claim.

What we do on a Ellenton water job

1. Make the scene safe first: water stopped, breakers off to wet rooms, trip hazards marked.
2. Map moisture in walls, floors, and ceilings with moisture meters, so we know where the water went, not just where it shows.
3. Cut out wet materials that will not dry in place, and explain why before we cut.
4. Re-check readings on each visit and pull the equipment only when the numbers say the job is done.
5. Hand you photos, a moisture log, and a written scope your insurer can use.
