Get The Most Out of Water Damage Claims

“Hope for the best but prepare for the worst” is a good phrase to live by, especially where your property is concerned. Especially when the ‘worst’ appears in the form of water damage. Today, we at United Water Restoration Group of The Woodlands, Texas are going to guide you so you get the most out of your water damage claim in the wake of a disaster.

Remain Calm, Press On

Water damage claims are one of the most frequently filed claims by property owners, and the damage can come in several different forms. It’s important to have insurance so that when a disaster does strike, you know exactly what you’re dealing with, at a lower out-of-pocket cost. However, damages can also be potentially denied coverage if you fail to act quickly when the damage is discovered.

1. Preventing More Damage

You’ll want to minimize any further damages the moment you find them. For an indoor leak, immediately shutting off your water, for example, is a great place to start. Patching a leaking hole in the roof is another common way to prevent more damage, in that case for rain-related damage. The second damage becomes apparent you have to act quickly. Don’t throw out anything damaged, as your water damage claim maximization depends on every shred of evidence you’re able to provide.

2. Call Your Insurance Provider

After preventing any further damage, you’ll get in touch with your insurance provider to fill out the proper paperwork, which will leave you waiting for a claims adjuster provided by your insurance to come out and take a look at the damage in person. Keep in mind, you may be better off seeking a public claim adjuster if this is an option, as it will help towards maximizing your water damage claim. After the claim has been processed, it’ll be up to your insurance to determine approval.
