Damage Claims
Fire/Smoke
Fire is one of the most common causes of property damage, resulting in serious problems for homeowners, businesses and commercial property owners. In addition to damage from fire and smoke, there may also be problems related to the process of putting out the fire, such as water or chemicals inside the building, and potential damage to the building’s structure, electrical and heating-cooling systems.
Regardless of the cause of a fire (explosion/gas leak, lightning, electrical, grease, etc.), an owner needs to make quick decisions while still under a great deal of stress and confusion. Who should we to call? Where do we stay tonight? Which belongings escaped unharmed? What exactly did we have in the building? How can we start the clean-up process?
