Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim
Do not assume the pipe fix and floor drying have identical coverage. The trades perform different work and keep different records. Discuss with the insurer how to submit both sets of documents.
- Describe the first sign accurately.
- Keep initial moisture readings.
- Ask the insurer about policy terms.
Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
