SERVPRO works with your insurance company to help make the restoration process as stress free as possible.

Insurance Claims and Fire Damage to Your Home in New Orleans

To say that fire damage to a home is traumatic is an understatement. Safety considerations aside, having your home ravaged by flames, firefighters dousing it in water and chemicals to stop the spread of the fire, and then possibly being displaced is an experience like no other. Even though well-meaning friends and family can be of incredible support, it is necessary to contact experts when considering your next steps in recovering your home from disaster.

If there is fire damage to your home in New Orleans, you can do well by calling our SERVPRO team as soon as the emergency is under control. Our team is in place and ready to take action around the clock, as we recognize that disaster can strike at any time. With our thorough training process, our FSRT fire and smoke restoration technicians can arrive and assess the areas of immediate need and identify the medium and long-range consequences the fire may have on your home. Even more important, our team's expertise can be of great assistance as you contact your insurance and file a claim. 

Most homeowners seek to file a claim as soon as a disaster happens. SERVPRO suggests immediately contacting your insurer to dispatch an adjuster to evaluate the fire damage. We work with many agencies and companies to coordinate a comprehensive cleanup and restoration service. Your adjuster provides a budget after documenting the damage to the structure and your contents. We also take photos and use the Xactimate software program to itemize the equipment used and the work performed, all within the budget. Our estimator has a large amount of experience, which can expedite the agreed upon terms and move the service along. Fast mitigation helps to minimize damage. We understand the scope of a significant fire damaging event, and we strive to reduce your stress and eventually make your home "Like it never even happened."

Reaching out to SERVPRO of the New Orleans Westbank at (504) 348-7526 is not only convenient but a smart decision to protect your home and finances.
