Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim
Gradual leakage and wear often face different policy treatment than a sudden accident. The owner should provide accurate facts and source findings. A restoration contractor cannot promise that a claim will be approved.
- Report the event directly to the insurer.
- Ask how the policy treats source work.
- Note rooms affected beyond the bathroom.
Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
