SERVPRO Helps with the Insurance Claim Process

At SERVPRO, we understand that property damage can be overwhelming. With decades of experience, SERVPRO can help document damage and provide information related to the services performed that can assist customers during the insurance claim process.   

When property damage occurs, a rapid response can help limit further damage and may reduce overall restoration costs.   

Groundwater flooding is usually covered by flood insurance, not a standard homeowners policy.

Knowing where the main water shutoff is located on your property can help prevent water damage to your home or business in an emergency.

Flood: What You Can Do Right Now

With flooding, knowing what you can do before help arrives can help reduce the damage to your home and cut the restoration costs. Standing water in your home will cause more damage with every passing hour.

  • Get everyone in your household (including pets) away from rising water and to a safe, dry area of the home.
  • Shut off your water source if you know the shutoff valve location and can reach it safely.
  • Turn off your electricity at the main panel, if you can do it without stepping in water.
  • Don’t use electrical appliances or outlets that might‘ve come in contact with water.
  • Move your most valuable items, furniture, and electronics to higher ground if it’s safe.
  • Once the flooding has stopped, take photos of the damage for your insurance claim.

My Pilates studio in downtown Arcadia had a water damage about a little more than a month ago. We found them through insurance company. Servepro team came immediately to handle the mold. With professional evaluation, they found the spot we didn’t even notice and dry the wall with powerful fans. Later they reconstructed my whole studio. From carpet selection to painting details, they did a perfect job! Just looking at how they help to put the cabinets back to the wall after painting, you know that they really respect their own job. Each workers on spot has great attitudes when I have questions. Highly recommend.!!!

Andy is the best. Very hard worker and very professional. He always went above and beyond with the work that he conducted in the house. Something that stands out to me about Andy was more than just his work ethic. He was so kind. In addition to all the work that he was doing in our home ,he offered to help cut up boxes that I had left in my front yard. These were not small boxes either they were couch size boxes. When he offered to cut them and dispose of them I was floored I couldn’t believe that especially because I knew how much work it was going to be on top of what he was already doing. You don’t find people like that anymore that take initiative. I hope we never have the issues that we had in our home again but if we did I know for certain that we would call Servpro back and specifically ask for Andy.

Our house experienced a roof leak on Christmas Eve. Despite the holiday, someone picked up the phone at the office and walked us through how they could help us mitigate the damage to our home. Over the next few weeks ServPro professionally dried out the impacted areas of our home, put a tarp on the roof to prevent further leaks, and helped coordinate with our insurance company for all of the charges. Everyone who arrived at our home was professional and knowledgeable of their work. We would recommend their service to our friends and family and would definitely reach out to them again if we needed them (though hopefully not anytime soon!).

My Grandma’s home was severely damaged after an electrical fire and we were connected with SERVPRO of Arcadia through State Farm. Considering the enormous amount of details and stress involved with rebuilding a house, I will forever be grateful for the help from the co-owner Amy Moufarrege. With all due respect, I would advise avoiding working with her dad Tony who was a little too “old school” for my taste. Amy however was professional, patient, and kind. It took almost 2 years to get the house rebuilt, especially since things needed to be updated to meet current codes and so many phases needed authorization from insurance. Amy always did a great job of answering all of my questions and concerns. Also, there were times that we had special requests with the rebuild and her team was able to offer creative solutions that still allowed us to stay within the insurance budget. To anyone recovering from a house fire: CONSULT your insurance agent so you understand all of the details of your policy coverage; it’ll definitely help expedite the process and reduce the confusion when trying to understand what services/repairs/resources are covered or not. I would definitely work with Amy and her team again for any other contracting/construction needs!

This local franchise are pros. A huge thank you to the general manager, Amy who was over the top in communication and a pleasure to work with. Her crew was professional and carried the same type of excellent communication, commitment and kept their word. I used ServPro for remediation and reconstruction for my entire 2 bed/2 bath condo in DTLA after I had water intrusion. I would strongly recommend this particular team. Thanks, Amy and Javier!

I had a major roof leak that was immediately followed by the appearance of mold and all of this was managed by Servpro With incredible grace and competence. I wish there were better words to describe this, but there are no words. When I mentioned to someone that I was going to use Servpro, their response was that they were very pricey. Thank goodness I ignored this because I remembered the "saying, and have lived its truth..."there is no free lunch," and this was never more appropriate and true here. The reason i can say this too is that I was in a unique position, at the same time, to observe how a another mold problem was handled elsewhere, and there was no comparison. Enter the office support staff wo managed all the extensive communications needed for for solid notification and documentation, included Angelia, Kathy, and Diana. Emails and telephone calls were returned promptly which is not always the case in today's business world. At the beginning, I received Tony's comprehensive inspection report that included a 57-page report with video and measurements of all the affected rooms and then the Water Intrusion Crew moved in to set up zippered containment units to separate out all the unaffected areas from the affected areas,as they did the tear down phase. They wore PPE to ensure their safety. Julio managed the overall Remediation process with great professionalism and with Andy at the worksite, working with his crew to ensure that all mold had been scrubbed out, and removed and antimicrobial materials were applied to impede reourrence. . Finally the Restoration crew arrived ... Javier, and Jorge...which made me wonder where Servpro found such amazingly, many skilled people! (Enrique came along, to my surprise later, to rehang all the pictures, mirrors and relocate furniture.) There was a myriad of architectural details that had to be dealt with such as rehanging shutters, building new baseboards, painting, and matching colored paint, copying existing wall texture, and patching and taping ceilings to the extent that the slogan "like it never even happened,"was never more true. Amy Moufarrege is the manager - outstanding. And my apologies for failing to mention Eric, who was so instrumental in estimating the restoration work involved, timing, and all the materials needed. It was masterful coordination.

SERVPRO took care of everything. The roof leak caused quite a bit of damage. All the contractors that SERVPRO arranged were great and their fees were very fair. I would use SERVPRO again.

How to clean up flood damage in a home?

When a flood emergency occurs in your home, it’s only natural to want to take action immediately. Below are some preliminary steps you can take before we arrive, but only attempt what you can do safely. 

  • Shut off the water source, if possible. If you’re not sure where the water is coming from, we’ll inspect and handle the situation as soon as we arrive. If you don’t know how to shut off the water, contact a plumber to help. 
  • Remove excess water by mopping, blotting, or wiping. This could include flooring and hard surface furniture which has standing water on it. Do not use your household vacuum to remove water, since it could cause damage to the vacuum or be unsafe.  
  • Protect carpet, rugs, drapes, and upholstered items from further damage. Place aluminum foil or parchment paper between furniture and wet carpet or rugs. Remove books, magazines, or other colored items from carpets and rugs. Hang draperies up with coated hangers to avoid contact with wet floors. Remove pillows or cushions from wet upholstered items. 
  • Avoid using electric or electronic items that have come into contact with water. This may include items such as light fixtures, ceiling fans, televisions, or appliances. If there is a possibility that someone else on the property may turn on an electric item that has come in contact with water, consider turning off the power to individual circuits within the power distribution panel of the property. 
What is a flood?

A flood is an overflow of water onto property that should otherwise be dry. Water from flooding doesn’t always come from the same place, and where it comes from matters a lot. Some floods bring in fairly clean water you can begin to deal with carefully. Others carry bacteria and contaminants that can harm your health. That’s why it’s important to know what you’re up against before you start your cleanup.

What are the most common causes of home floods?

Most home floods come from severe weather and storms, plumbing or appliance failures, and sewer backups or rising groundwater. Each source carries different risks, so identifying the cause early helps you respond as effectively as possible.

Is flood damage covered by insurance?

Flood damage may be covered by your insurance policy, but you’ll need to reach out to your agent to get specifics about your particular coverage. Most typical homeowners insurance does not cover flood damage.

How long does it take to fix flood damage?

The time it takes to fix flood damage depends on the severity of the flood. We’ll inspect your home or business and discuss with you the severity of damage and our plan to help return your property back to pre-loss condition. We’ll then work to remove the water that shouldn’t be there using pumps and water extracting equipment. Once the excess water is gone, we use dehumidifiers and other specialized drying equipment to help return the area to its normal moisture level. This is a closely monitored process, with our teams continually making adjustments to equipment to help ensure the area is recovering as quickly and as safely possible.

How dangerous is a flood?

Other than the environmental hazards, all natural flood water is classified as category 3 water damage. Category 3 water damage is defined as “Grossly unsanitary water containing pathogenic agents, arising from sewage or other contaminated water sources and having the likelihood of causing discomfort or sickness if consumed or exposed to humans.” Category 3 water damage is considered grossly contaminated. It may also be called “black water.” 

What should you do if your house floods?

The most important thing to do is to move your family to safety. Next, shut off the water source and electricity if you can do so safely and avoid contact with standing water. Then call a professional water damage restoration company right away to begin the water extraction process.

Are sandbags helpful during a flood?

Sandbags are helpful for slowing and redirecting slow-moving water up to two feet deep, but they do not stop water completely. Do not rely on sandbags to counteract flood damage.
