Waldorf MD Flood Cleanup and Water Damage Restoration

Having your home damaged by water can be devastating. Your belongings are wet, possibly irreparably damaged, some of which can’t be replaced. Depending on the extent of the damage, you may even need to find another place to live temporarily. On top of that, you have to deal with an insurance claim and trying to figure out how to repair the damage properly within a budget. Many people will make the mistake of trying to make all the repairs themselves or playing “general contractor” and finding many different contractors for the different types of repairs that need to be made.

Think about that for a moment. Imagine that your home sustained serious water damage from Superstorm Sandy in October of 2012. Your insurance company comes out, they take pictures and talk to you about the damage. You have been able to salvage some photographs to show them the condition of your home prior to the storm. Your insurance agent looks everything over, goes back to the office and then calls you and tells you that your insurance will cover “X” amount of damages. You, being a lay person, who hopefully hasn’t had to deal with this before, just accept what the claims adjuster says.

As a leading disaster recovery contractor we provide the following services property owners: repairs from storm damagebasement flood damage and fire and smoke damage

You believe you can handle this all yourself, and of course, you want to stay within the amount that your insurance company said they would pay. So you set about renting pumps to remove the water that has been standing in your basement until the insurance company could come. You call plumbers, electricians and carpenters to come and give you an estimate. Certainly it is possible to find reputable contractors for those things, but not all of them are familiar with dealing with insurance companies. But you keep going, working with your various contractors, trying to keep them in budget. As the work is progressing, they find more damage as they go along, but you have the claim amount from the insurance company and you can’t afford to have more come out of your pocket. It all turns into a nightmare and takes far longer than you expected.
