A Potential Loss Inspection is performed when the insured has reason to believe there may be a loss but wants a professional inspection before deciding to file an insurance claim or perform repairs.
It is a great idea to have this performed through a Public Adjuster rather than a storm chasing contractor for obvious reasons. The PA may also coordinate the services of a known contractor that is well know for honest and detailed inspections.
Photos and any documents from the inspection will be available for any claims processing requirements.
This service is typically provided without charge.
