Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim
Do not assume the pipe fix and floor drying have identical coverage. The trades perform different work and keep different records. Discuss with the insurer how to submit both sets of documents.
- Photograph the first visible damp area.
- Keep the final dry record.
- Store daily readings together.
Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
