Claim Complications Caused by Water Damage
When a homeowner assigns their benefits to a mitigation/mold company to begin work and take payment from their insurer directly, all the complications the original policyholder could have encountered will be placed upon the shoulders of the restoration company instead. In many cases, the worst frustrations are found within water damage claims. The source of the water damage in particular is a topic insurance companies tend to hotly debate and cite for claim denials. For example, homeowner’s insurance policies generally cover damage caused by hurricanes and storms, but not flood damage, broken pipes, and consequent mold growth.

- Analyze and photograph all the damage to the insured’s property
- Review the insured’s original property policy for coverage
- Notify the insurer as soon as you plan to begin work about what needs to be done
