      Things to do after a tornado or natural disaster

      What to do after a Plano storm or tornadoIn the event of a natural disaster, such as a tornado, there is only a small window of opportunity to prepare. Safety and well-being of yourself and your family are the most important things.

      After a tornado, it’s a good idea to have a plan to reunite with your family, such as calling an out-of-town relative or going to a local restaurant. After a natural disaster, you need to take steps to ensure your life can be put back together once you know everyone is okay or being taken care of.

      After a tornado, here are some things to do

      If the worst happens and your home is damaged, you may feel overwhelmed and not know what steps to take. When wind and debris damage your home, does insurance cover it? Your homeowner’s insurance should cover tornado damage in most cases. However, this depends on your geographic location, so you may want to check your policy or speak with your agent. Here are the steps you need to take.

      Be patient until the all-clear is given

      stay away from disaster areas in PlanoWhether the storm brought damage, flooding, or a house fire, you need to wait for an all-clear notification from Plano authorities before returning home. Although the area looks safe, it isn’t. The person in charge will assess the situation and consult with experts to ensure your safety. Your home or property can be blocked by authorities in some cases. It’s not a good idea to sneak past them.

      You might consider asking a structural engineer to examine your home if it has been damaged by fire or flooding. They can determine whether it is safe to enter the structure. Water or fire damage can cause a structure to become unsafe even if it is only a small amount. Even if there doesn’t seem to be much damage to your home, you should notify a professional when it’s safe to enter. Fires can release noxious and toxic gases into the air, so it’s important to give a professional a call if you are unsure when it’s safe to enter.

      Take photos before doing anything

      take pictures of home damage for insuranceTake photos of all damaged items before removing them or throwing them away. It may be necessary to move damaged items to take additional photos, but that’s okay after you take pictures of the items you need to move. Evidence of the full extent of the damage should be provided to your insurance company.

      Photographs of how the house looked before you moved things around are the best way to provide evidence. Photos of identification numbers should be included with items with identification numbers, such as computers and televisions. On a receipt or other proof of purchase, it is easier to identify the item this way. The same things and structures should be photographed from a variety of perspectives.

      Call a Professional

      In the event of water or fire damage, you should contact a company that specializes in these types of clean-ups. If you need to dry out or minimize further damage, they have the equipment you need. The majority of these companies have years of experience cleaning up disaster sites, repairing fire and water damage, and halting mold growth.

      Most insurance companies will cover the cost of a professional cleaning crew if they cover the initial damage. Smoke and fire damage can both be caused by a fire. Unlike smoke damage, fire damage weakens the structure of your home. Water damage and structural problems can be caused by tornadoes and flooding.

      If your home is exposed to water in places that shouldn’t be wet, mold can develop. You need professional help if you want to prevent mold from growing after a flood or tornado. The cost of removing mold from your home can be high once it has taken hold. Particularly after flooding, when mold can form behind walls and other hard-to-reach areas.

      Notify your insurance company

      call insurance after storms in PlanoIt’s likely that your insurance company, along with hundreds of others, is waiting on your call if you’re dealing with a natural disaster. An insurance company’s staff is usually large enough to respond to a natural disaster. The sooner you call and begin the process, the faster you will receive financial compensation to begin rebuilding your life and home.

      You might think that if you start the claim process and then find more damage, you won’t be covered, but you will. Your insurance company can assist you in finding the resources you need to protect your home. There are also instances in which they can release funds immediately for the cleanup effort or to protect your property from further damage, such as covering holes in the roof with tarps.

      Make sure valuables are secure

      secure your valuables after a stormSome homes cannot be reoccupied until repairs are completed. If your home cannot be locked and secured, you should take all of your valuables with you to a new location. Items such as jewelry, computers, electronics, and portable devices fall under this category.

      You may need to ask a friend or family member outside the disaster area to hold larger items, such as appliances. A storage center might be the best option if you don’t have anyone close by. Depending on your insurance policy, the cost of storage might be covered.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      You should contact AquaTex Restoration at (469) 782-9857 immediately if you experience water damage, not your insurance agent. Our Emergency Response Team can provide a free estimate as soon as possible, reducing property damage. If you notify your insurance company or agent of the loss, they must open a claim. In most cases, the repair cost will be less than your deductible, so you will be responsible for the repair. “No-pay claims” will appear on your loss history report, resulting in higher premiums or even uninsurability.

      AquaTex Restoration specializes in water and fire damage restoration. We are the company you should call if your home or office has been damaged by fire, water, or storms. Using the latest technology, AquaTex Restoration provides water extraction, structural drying, fire damage cleanup, and restoration services in Plano.

      In most cases, that’s true. Our Emergency Response Team may take longer to arrive on-site at some locations due to our large service area (Plano). Our inspections and estimates are free of charge.

Due to the fact that we use an insurance-based pricing method, we always offer our customers fair prices on every one of our projects. Prices are not set by us, but by the Board’s “reasonable” pricing structure for projects in our market, as stated by the Board. For the purpose of reviewing our pricing structure, we provide a printed copy to our customers. After we complete a dry-out project, we provide the customer with a “build-back” estimate within three business days.

      We recommend that you make a list of all items (including food and household goods) that cannot be restored. Your insurance company may have a form you can use, or you can create a simple list that includes the item name, quantity, and value. You should make a copy for yourself and for your insurance company if you want to make sure you have a copy for both of them.

      Property owners in Plano are responsible for payment. As the property owner, you will be required to complete an authorization form and authorize payment. Typically, we collect only the deductible amount and bill your insurance company for the remaining amount.

      Depending on the magnitude of the loss, the insurance company may include your mortgage company as a payee on the payment. Additionally, you may need a signature from your mortgage company to complete the payment process.

      Whether or not you decide to file a claim, or whether the claim is covered by insurance, the full payment is due at the time of service.
