Insurance Claims – What you should know
The first thing you need to do is to reference your Homeowner’s policy. This will have critical information like your Deductible and what you agreed that the insurance will and will not cover. Often clients do not have enough coverage and during a hail claim this will be a critical moment if you need to replace your roof.
Insurance Policies
Insurance Policies is a contractual agreement between you and your insurer. They underwrite your homeowners policy with the contractual language that you agree to. Always ask as many questions as you can when consulting with an Insurance Agent.
Insurance Process
When you file a claim. An Insurance Adjuster will be assigned to you. The Insurance Adjuster will review your policy. They will assess the damages to your property. Then they will write a Scope of Work. This scope of work is critical as it tells you what the Insurance company is going to pay for and what they will not.
