Insurance and your claim

After a hurricane, wind and flood claims often go to different insurers. We keep the documentation separate so each adjuster gets what they need. You stay in control of your claims.

How storm restoration works

  1. Board up broken windows, sliders, and doors with metal panels.
  2. Put an emergency tarp over roof damage until a roofer can make repairs.
  3. Extract storm and flood water from floors and carpet.
  4. Cut out wet materials that will not dry in place.
  5. Dry the structure and log readings until they are normal.

After the storm passes

  • Do not wade through standing water.
  • Photograph damage inside and out before cleanup.
  • Run generators outdoors, well away from doors and windows.
