What type of fire damage is covered by homeowners insurance?
There are several types of properties that may be covered in the event of a fire.
- Dwelling Coverage: Homeowners insurance helps cover the damage to your home or attached structures such as the garage. If your home is unlivable during repairs, your insurance policy may cover additional living expenses and other incidentals such as hotels and food.
- Detached Structures: Some insurance policies cover structures that are not attached to your home or business such as fences, detached garages, or shed.
- Personal Property: Loss of personal property such as clothing, furniture, and appliances due to fire may also be covered under the insurance policy. If they are completely destroyed or damaged, the insurance company may even help replace them.
- Landscaping: Some homeowners insurance policies also cover damages to your trees or shrubs.
How Long Does It Take To Settle A Fire Damage Claim?
An insurance company can process and payout a settlement in as little as 90 days or less, if the claim is not denied.
Once a fire damage insurance claim is submitted, the insurance company will evaluate or investigate the cause of the fire. They investigate your claim to determine what the costs of repairs may be and determine the value of your property.
Our fire claims adjuster can review your claim and any related reports that describe the fire, the burn pattern, and the value of the damaged property. Our public insurance adjuster team, may spot additional unforeseen expenses that may be covered. This can increase the settlement amount of your fire damage claim.
How Does The Fire Damage Claim Process Work?
After an insurance claim is submitted to the insurance company, they must recognize the claim within 15 days. The insurance company has up to 40 days to approve or deny your claim.
If the insurance company accepts and approves the claim, then they have up to 30 days to reimburse you.
What Happens If My Fire Damage Claim Gets Denied?
If your claim is denied contact us right away. In Florida, you have 90-days to dispute a denied claim. Since it already takes about 90-days to get a claim approved, this can delay your repairs and compensation an extra three months. It is best to hire a fire claims adjuster or even an attorney to review and reopen your claim. The attorney can provide additional documents, numerous types of evidence, and written estimates.
