What happens next?

Determine if your property was damaged during the storm.

If so, it’s important to prevent further damage from happening to your property. For example, if there are portions of your roof that are damaged, you can have tarps cover the damage. If your house floods, you should have demo and remediation done to tear out and dry wet areas so damage doesn’t spread or worsen.

If you have insurance on your property, you should read the policy conditions to determine your obligations, such as notifications, and documentation, in filing an insurance claim for financial assistance from your insurance carrier. Some policies, including flood, have important submission deadlines for forms and paperwork.

What will my insurance pay for?

Everyone has a different insurance policy so there is no universal answer for what damage will be covered by YOUR insurance. As a general guide, you should read your insurance policy to determine:

   - The limits of your coverage and any sub-limits for specific items. For example, debris removal or wind-driven rain/precipitation.

   - Your deductibles. Most FL policies will contain a higher % deductible for wind losses from Hurricanes. For example, a hurricane deductible may be 5% of the total insured value of your property or a flood deductible may be a $10,000 value. You’ll have a deductible under each policy

   - Any applicable exclusions that may apply to your damage. For example, most property policies do not cover water damage caused by floods. That coverage or policy is purchased separately.

How can Skyline Public Adjusters help?

Skyline Adjusters can conduct a courtesy insurance policy review to assist you, the policyholder, to understand the limits of your policy and other provisions that surround your insurance coverage.
