Some of the monsoon storms that hit your area in Phoenix, Az will likely leave behind some damages. Even with flood and storm insurance, eliminating the amount of storm damage to your home or commercial property will be in your best interest overall. Insurance adjusters are known for being busy during the monsoon season in Phoenix, so taking a few steps prior to their arrival will save time and a headache.

What to Do After Storm Damage

After initially speaking to your insurance company, you’ll want to call your trusted storm damage cleanup company, like SERVPRO of Phoenix. Storm damage restoration companies know the process very well and will help guide you through it efficiently. The benefits of a calling a restoration company directly after the call to your insurance company include:

1. Initial assessment of the damage from the storm
2. Less time from damage to water extraction to prevent more damage
3. An itemized list of all the damages (Needed for insurance claim)
4. Photos of any storm damages (The more evidence you provide of storm damages, the better the chance of getting your claim accepted)
