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.
- Keep the final dry record.
- Save the pipe condition notes.
- Photograph the first visible damp area.
Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
