What would you do if something damaged your home? Maybe it was fire, a flood, hail damage, vandalism, or a host of other disasters. Once you’ve taken some comfort that you and your family are safe, it’s time to collect on that insurance so you can make the necessary repairs or replacements and return to living. Here’s how you do it. 

File That Claim

First, if a crime has been committed, you call the police and make a report. If it was just Mother Nature in a snit, skip it and contact your insurance company as soon as possible to file your claim. You may be asked to document the damage with photographs. During the ensuing investigation, cooperate with your insurers. You can make repairs, but hold on to those receipts! If your house has become so uninhabitable you have to leave, keep receipts for all food and lodging. You could be reimbursed. You might think about hiring a public adjuster. They will review, evaluate your property, and get you a fair deal with the insurance company.
