Should I Make An Insurance Claim?

There are many factors that a homeowner must take into consideration when deciding whether to make an insurance claim or to "pay out of pocket" when a water loss occurs inside the home. The most important step when making this determination is to correctly identify the full scope of damage caused by the water. Many people mistakenly think that simply sucking the water out of the carpet is sufficient for fixing a water damage problem. In reality the majority of problems caused by water are not readily visible on the surface. Water is absorbed in to building materials such as wood and sheetrock at rates as high as one inch per hour! This moisture although not visible becomes a breeding ground for mold. In order to find this hidden moisture special tools called moisture meters are needed to help identify all of the hidden pockets of moisture. Once all of the wet building material has been found you can decide whether or not the damage warrants placing a claim. You should be skeptical of any company that tries to force you into making a claim on your insurance without first visiting your home. While placing a claim is often times the best choice for a homeowner, that decision should not be made until a full understanding of the problem has been determined by a qualified technician.
