I'm a field adjuster I'll be heading down shortly. If anyone has a place to park a 36ft 5th wheel while I work for a few weeks I'd like to chat. I'm not sure where I'll be exactly yet though. Probably close to the bad damage.
If you have insurance questions I'll try to help. Email is better than IM for me
Document your unusual living expenses. Food. Hotels. Travel. Generator fuel. Generator purchase etc. These small Bill's help work on your deductible so you can get the repairs you need
Tarping roofs or walls that are storm damaged is generally reimbursable by your policy.
Down trees on property generally have low maximums on a policy. Getting a downed tree or limb off an insured structure is a different pool of money. Try to get your invoices split if you have it contracted. This usually includes sidewalks and driveways that accommodate the legal access of an insured structure.
Get the trees off the structures before the adjuster shows up.
If you're inclined offer your adjuster a bottle of water.
If you can, answer out of state calls, robots dialers are annoying but your desk adjuster and field adjust may be trying to reach you.
Desk adjusters are your primary point of contact, field adjusters like me are the only person you're gonna see but were also the lowest person on the totem pole with the most sweat and least authority in your claim
Field adjusters who are not in a company vehicle are not going to be able to answer policy questions or make decisions about what is covered. Just that it has or doesn't have storm damage.
