Fire Damage Claim
The damage caused by fire to your home is probably the most physically and emotionally exhausting experience you can go through! Especially when it comes to extensive damage caused to your property and possessions. Fire escalates quickly, and the resulting harm can range from mild to fatal. Due to the nature of the damage, the chances of a complete reconstruction of your property can increase. It is because the lost possessions are mostly unaccounted for. This includes burnt furnishings and appliances that are rarely in a repairable condition.
Fire damage also opens the door wide open for smoke damage, and when combined, they may cost you thousands of dollars. Appliances might look okay, but there can always be a probable internal malfunction in them. It’s because of the intense heat that gets to them. The black walls and burnt furniture stains from the smoke make it impossible to investigate the actual extent of damage done to the area.
Smoke migration should always be inspected as an addition in case of a fire incident. Soot stains and deposits that rest in cracks and crannies should be examined. A lot of patience is required to go through the entire process of evaluation. That’s why most people prefer to hire public adjusters to represent their insurance interests when it comes to measuring the damage.
What Happens Immediately After?
Immediately after a fire incident occurs, the homeowner is busy managing the emotional hurt. Due to this, they may overlook the practicalities required to bring immediate financial relief. It is quite understandable and reasonable to be stunned. Fire lays so many things to waste that are of sentimental, monetary and practical value. It can even take several days to realize the extent of the entire situation. Hiring us will make sure that your fire damage claim is in the most able hands. Along with it, the insurance company will not be able to play with your emotional state for their benefit.
Some probable damages done to a property in case of a fire are:
- Formational damage to structures such as walls, beams, floor and roof. Wooden structures face the brunt of fires the most. Concrete is also ruined in a fire, but it can be restored.
- Damage to appliances and furnishings can cause internal damage to the wires and electrical chips embedded in them.
- Smoke damage that is apparent in the soot deposits, greasing and burnt smell, should be properly examined before the claim is settled.
Here is when we can help you in taking care of your legalities while you take care of your emotional injury. We ensure that the insurance company fulfills its promise, and you get the justified amount to rebuild your damaged property.
