Columbus Ohio experiences some of the nations most unpredictable storms resulting in millions of dollars worth of damage to homes and properties. When damage does occur, you rely on your Homeowners Insurance to protect you. Unfortunately being treated fairly during the the claims process is not always as easy as it seems. If you are experiencing claim delays, under-deductible denials, or full denials, you need a Claim Specialist experienced with Central Ohio Weather & Wildlife damages working for you.
We can help you if you have filed a claim due to damage caused by the following:
After a damaging Central Ohio storm, it is crucial that you document as much as possible, including taking photos of the property damage and saving any debris or damaged items in a safe place. If you have leaks, missing roofing, or siding materials contact us immediately so we can perform temporary repairs to prevent further damage to your home. Standard homeowners insurance policies require you to take steps to mitigate the damage as soon as it is safe to do so.
We hear from Central Ohio homeowners every day that they saw a little leak or water spot on the ceiling and didn’t think anything of it, only to find out when we inspect the roof that they suffered storm damage. When the leak is not caught early it often leads to mold and mildew in the attic and ceiling, and can even rot out the plywood roof decking resulting in thousands in additional repair costs. After making a claim these homeowners can be in for a costly surprise. Their insurance company may only cover a repair of the roof shingles while denying the mold, mildew, and rot damage as being a result of long-term neglect.
