Conducting a Storm Damage Inspection
Immediately following a serious storm, it is essential that you document each and every detail about the event. From taking pictures of damaged shingles and leaky ceilings to writing down the date and time of the storm itself. These necessary details help provide all the information when communicating with insurance. Additionally, scheduling a free inspection from Jigsaw PMR ensures you understand the full impact of what damage the storm may have caused. Missing hard-to-see signs of damage can result in your claim being filed for much less than what the true damage may be. Based on the inspection findings, a report will be generated that will summarize the impact of the storm. This document helps guide your decision on whether or not to file a claim, and our team is there to answer any questions you may have about the process.
How to Handle Insurance Companies
Immediately following a serious storm with visible damage, your first reaction may be to call the insurance company. While this makes logical sense, it is important to know what you are getting into first! Insurance companies are designed to fix and repair the situation in the fastest possible manner with as little expense as possible. Regardless of how severe the damage may be, it is essential that you review your insurance policy coverage to understand what your plan details allow. Jigsaw PMR has years of experience negotiating and working with insurance companies to make sure you get a fair payout for your coverage.
