How Can SERVPRO Help Me With My Cascade Insurance Claim?

10/5/2021 (Permalink)

Filing an insurance claim after a disaster can be frustrating and confusing, even if the damage you experienced is small. There are many different rules to follow, forms to fill out, and timelines to follow. Mistakes in any one of these areas could cause the denial of your claim, and we know that's not something you want to experience. 

Our SERVPRO team is here to help you file your insurance claim for your Cascade home or business. We have experience in all the areas necessary to ensure that your claim is filed correctly and on time. 

What Are The Steps I Need To Take When Filing An Insurance Claim For My Cascade Property?

According to FEMA, insurance is generally the best source of funds to recover from a disaster. If you have insurance covering all or part of your losses:

  • File your claim immediately. Get the process started as quickly as possible. The faster you file your insurance claim, the quicker you can move ahead with your recovery. If your insurance doesn't cover all your disaster-related severe expenses, you may be eligible for FEMA assistance to help fill the gap.
  • You can make temporary repairs, but you will want to talk with a professional restoration company before doing so. 
  • Take photographs or videos of the damage and keep all receipts related to clearing smoke, home repair, or other disaster-related needs.
  • If you have to relocate during repairs, keep all receipts for reimbursement, as well.
  • You may be eligible for FEMA assistance, and you can learn more here:  www.disasterassistance.gov.
