Making a Water Damage Claim in New Middleton

7/9/2020 (Permalink)

Family sitting in a boat in their house with water damage Water damage can be overwhelming and stressful, let SERVPRO of East Mahoning County come help you out!

Water damage can cause a hurricane of feelings from loss to confusion and worry. The last thing most people want to do is get on the phone and fight with their insurance company to make a claim.

SERVPRO of East Mahoning County is here to help walk you though the process and keep you informed. Here are 3 basics to keep in mind and help get you through the process. 

  1. Understand What Is Covered: Unfortunately, after water damage has occurred, it is not possible to change your insurance plan. Choosing an insurance policy that will cover common types of damage is helpful. By knowing what your insurance policy will cover, you can be more prepared for a disaster, and you can quickly make a claim and spend less time worrying about the financial aspect of the damage.
  2. Documentation Is Key: After you have made the insurance claim, your insurance company will likely request documentation to know how to compensate you. Many insurance companies send an adjuster to photograph the damage. In most cases the more documentation you can provide to the insurance adjuster and your insurance policy, the better.
  3. Time Matters: After a claim has been made, the next priority is to fix and clean your home. However, spending time attempting to fix a broken pipe or trying to clean your home on your own can be both time-consuming and hazardous. When it comes to standing water, time is of the essence because it can lead to structural damage if left untouched for too long. Making the most of the time you have and calling in professionals is often the best way to ensure your home does not become more damaged.

Homeowners with damaged homes might find it helpful to contact water damage restoration experts. The professionals at SERVPRO of East Mahoning County are available 24/7 and highly trained in water restoration. We will work with you and your insurance company to get your life back to normal as soon as possible.
