After the storm
- Stay safe first. Stay out of standing water and away from downed lines. Wait for the all-clear from your county.
- Photograph everything before you touch it. Every room, every ceiling stain, the roof from the ground, outside walls, fences and the water line. Video walk-throughs help.
- Stop further damage. Tarp the roof, board openings, start drying out. Keep every receipt; reasonable emergency repairs are part of the claim.
- Report the claim promptly. Florida law generally gives you 1 year from the date of loss to report a new or reopened claim and 18 months for a supplemental claim (s. 627.70132, F.S.). Don't wait.
- Don't throw out damaged items yet. Keep samples of flooring, carpet and cabinets until the adjuster has seen them, or photograph and measure them first.
- Read before you sign. Don't sign releases or accept a first offer until you understand what your policy covers.
