What should I do first if my property is damaged?
When you have damage, whether by fire, hail, storm, or water, act fast. A few tips to get you started:
- Contact your insurance provider.
- If the damage is caused by an event such as a fire, ask for the report from the fire department. If it is caused by an accident or crime, ask for a copy of the police report.
- When you can enter the property, create an inventory of damaged items, being as detailed as possible.
- If you need somewhere to stay and don’t have family or friends to stay with, contact the American Red Cross. They can help with temporary aid and shelters.
- Work with a good general contractor that has experience working with insurance agents and adjusters. A good general contractor can also help you determine whether you need hail damage repair, fire restoration, flood damage restoration, tornado damage repair or a combination to get your residence or building restored whole and back in good shape.
