When disaster strikes, whether it's a fire, storm, or flood, dealing with the aftermath can be overwhelming. One of the most challenging aspects is navigating the insurance claims process.
At JBB Construction, we specialize in helping Starkville homeowners with insurance claims and restoration. In this guide, we will walk you through the process step-by-step to ensure you understand what to expect and how to make the process as smooth as possible.
Step 1:
Contact Your Insurance Provider
The first step is always to report the damage to your insurance company. Be sure to take photos and videos of the damage immediately. The more documentation you have, the better your claim will be. If you're unsure of your policy details, now is the time to review them and ask your insurer questions about what’s covered.
Step 2:
Schedule an Adjuster Visit
After filing your claim, an insurance adjuster will visit your property to assess the damage. Be present during the inspection to ensure they notice all the issues that need addressing. Take detailed notes of what the adjuster says, and consider having a contractor from JBB Construction accompany the adjuster for a more accurate evaluation.
Step 3:
Get a Professional Estimate
Once the insurance adjuster has completed their assessment, it’s time to get an estimate for repairs. JBB Construction can provide an accurate and reliable estimate to ensure that your home is restored to its pre-loss condition. Our team works directly with your insurance company, so the repair process goes as smoothly as possible.
Step 4:
Submit the Claim and Wait for Approval
With the insurance company and contractor estimates in hand, submit your claim for review. Make sure you follow up if you don’t hear back within a reasonable time frame. If the claim is approved, you will receive funds to repair your home.
Step 5:
Begin Repairs and Restoration
Once your claim is approved, it’s time to get your home back to normal.
JBB Construction will handle all aspects of the restoration process, from water removal and structural repairs to painting and finishing touches. We ensure your home is restored with the highest level of quality and care.
