all building and content damage before any emergency repairs are done.
Protect your property to prevent further loss (tarp the roof, do temporary
building repairs, move or remove trees, move property out of harm's way).
Preserve damaged property to prevent further damage and save it so the
adjuster can see it.
Obtain a written estimate to repair the building damages.
Prepare a room by room list of damaged property showing quantities, ages
and replacement prices.
Keep an accurate list of all additional living expenses.
Keep an accurate accounting of the supplies you purchase to do the
emergency repairs.
Leave a forwarding address or phone number where your agent and adjuster
can reach you.
