Fire damage cleanup & restoration

Most business property insurance covers 100% of damage caused by fire or fire suppression materials. Business insurance property policies pay losses based on the actual cash value (ACV) of the damaged property. The actual cash value is typically calculated by subtracting a property's accumulated depreciation from its replacement cost. When considering insurance, it’s important to know if you have the right amount of coverage, and if so, what the limits of your policy are. Don’t assume you’re adequately covered for a fire. You should understand your policy before you're exposed to a fire damage event.

Step 1: When experiencing a commercial fire and smoke damage, you will want to contact your insurance company as soon as possible to notify them of the loss and file a claim. You will be assigned a claims adjuster and be informed of your policy limits, what is covered, what is excluded, your deductible and any other information that might be needed.

Step 2: Depending upon the type of policy you have, you may have to submit specific information to your insurance company.
‍
Step 3: Insurance payment processes will differ depending on the type of loss you have. For a small loss, your insurer may simply write you a check. For a larger loss, your insurer may advance some of the costs needed to rebuild or repair your business throughout the process. It's important to ask your claims adjuster how the payment process will occur in your situation, and more importantly, to get that in writing.
