Navigating Insurance Claims After a Major Weather Event

Insurance claims can be hard to navigate. Knowing the process to follow can take the stress out of the entire situation. At S&S Restoration, we lead the way through insurance claims to make sure everything is done right to get you the most coverage. We follow six key steps to ensure it’s done right the first time.

1. Inspect the Damage

The first step in the insurance claims process is to conduct a full inspection to assess the damage. An S&S Restoration crew member will come out with the tools and technology needed to fully assess the property. Water damage in particular can exist behind walls, requiring equipment to locate moisture without doing demolition. Our crew is available 24/7 to get your insurance claims process in motion as soon as possible.

2. Open Your Claim

The next step is to open up your claim with your insurance provider. S&S Restoration will work directly with your insurance representative to conduct a secondary assessment with the insurance claims adjuster. Together, we will work to open up the claim – saving you time and energy during this difficult time.

3. Adjuster’s Meeting

After the initial inspection and adjuster’s inspection, you will meet with the adjuster and our team to discuss the extent of the damage. This starts the discussion of financial settlements and what the insurance provider will be covering.

4. Planning Out Restoration

After we discuss the insurance claims process with you, we begin planning the restoration. Some prefer restoring the home to its original design and layout. For others, they look at this as an opportunity to reimagine their home. We help you plan out your home restoration, letting you know what can and cannot be done. In some cases, if you have a historic home you have certain parameters that need to be followed. The S&S Restoration team will help guide you through the entire process.

5. Beginning Restoration

After finalizing the plans and settling the insurance claims process, S&S Restoration starts restoring your home. We keep you informed throughout the process to ensure you’re up to date on the progress. Before we rebuild we will clear the home of water, debris, and etc. Next, we repair all utilities and prepare them for rebuilding. We work quickly while carefully attending to every detail to ensure everything meets your satisfaction.

6. Post Build Inspection

After completing the restoration, S&S Restoration, along with third-party contractors, conducts the post-build inspection to verify that everything meets code and is structurally sound. Once your home receives approval, you can move back in and enjoy it.
