The most important step to take after your home suffers hurricane damage is file a claim with your insurance company. Be sure to take photographs of any damage to the interior or exterior of your home. You can compare these photos to any photos taken prior to the storm. If you do not have any photos of the interior or exterior of your house at this time, we recommend doing so. It will make the hurricane damage claim process easier on your end.

Another important step is to have someone come assess the property. This can either be a licensed contractor, public adjuster or a damage assessment expert. Having someone come out to accurately assess the damage or loss value of your property can help your case in many ways. Your insurance provider will likely send out a representative to examine the damage so they can determine a monetary evaluation. It is important that you do the same with representatives acting on your accord.
