The freezing temps have done their worst in Atlanta and throughout the Southeast. With the temperatures moving up into the the 60s over the next few days the freeze damage will reveal itself.
The worst is yet to come. Those frozen pipes begin to thaw then erupt into a geyser.
THAWMAEGEDDON!
When those pipes erupt the first step is stop the geyser – turn your water off. Once the water is off it’s time to find someone to repair the leaks. Be prepared to wait for a plumber.
The next step CYA means Call Your Advocate.
Call us before you call your insurance company. When your insurer sends an adjuster you will be encumbered with claim activity, even if your damages are not covered by your policy or fall below your deductible. The best case will be less than 50 cents on the dollar.
The adjuster the insurance company sends to you is working for them. CYA is working for you, we are experts at revealing the full extent of damages and negotiating for the maximum settlement you are entitled to.
Leaks are an insidious problem, water goes everywhere and you must prove the damages to your insurance company. We are trained to ensure your policy covers water damage, not all policies do. Once we have established you are covered we can document the full extent of the damages, ensuring you are paid all you are entitled to.
