Are inland burst pipe jobs usually insurance jobs?
Sudden ruptures usually are. We document and bill carriers direct on approved claims.
How does insurance coordination work on a large RSF loss?
On larger RSF losses (typically $50,000 and up), the carrier has real interest in optimizing repair-versus-replace decisions, and we coordinate scope directly with the assigned adjuster and any specialty consultants the carrier brings in. We document everything from minute one, cause-of-loss, scope, daily moisture readings, content inventory, repair-versus-replace recommendations with cost basis. We bill direct to the carrier on approved claims. The carrier coordination does not slow the actual work, mitigation and dry-out start immediately.
