Insurance claim repairs to your home
You want your insurance policy to protect your assets and do what it is supposed to do in the event of a covered loss, which is to restore you to resemble pre-loss conditions. A key distinction that many home and business owners do not make is the one between an insurance agent and an insurance adjuster.
Your insurance agent is the local representative with whom you consulted and purchased your insurance policy from. Often when you make a claim you will contact this person as they are the face of the company for you.
Once a claim is filed, you will be working with an insurance adjuster. This is the person, or persons, who will help to assess and determine what is covered and/or excluded from your policy as it relates to the claim.
