Hurricane Debby was a particularly destructive storm that devastated the properties of many Florida residents. There was flooding and heavy rain that killed the electricity, tornados that popped up as a result of the storm, major damage to the properties of Florida residents, and even deaths.
If your property was affected by this tragedy, you may be wondering what you should do next. Here are some post-hurricane tips to help ensure you get the right payout from your insurance provider to help you rebuild and move forward after such a horrific storm.
What Do I Do If My Property Was Damage Due to Hurricane Debby?
If your property was damaged due to Hurricane Debby, it’s important to take action quickly and get the process of filing an insurance claim started as soon as possible. Given your insurance coverage is up-to-date, here is what you should do when filing your claim:
Take an Inventory of the Damage Caused by Debby
The first thing you’ll want to do is take a comprehensive inventory of the damage caused to your property due to Hurricane Debby. This may include taking photos, shooting videos, and making a comprehensive list of everything that was damaged. If you have evidence of what your property was like before, have this evidence ready so you can provide a side-by-side comparison of the before and after of the storm.
Contact Your Insurance Provider and File a Claim
The next step of the process will be filing your claim with your insurance provider. You should do this as soon as you can, as the process can take months to finalize. When you file your claim, have all of your documentation ready and be as thorough as possible.
