Claims paperwork

We work with your insurance but we do not take over your claim. You get photos, moisture readings, and a written scope to send your adjuster. Whether it is covered depends on your policy and where the water came from.

How the dry-out works

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. Set air movers and dehumidifiers sized to the wet area.
4. Come back to take readings until materials reach normal dry levels.
5. Photograph everything and write a scope with readings for your insurer.
