[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Figure out why before fixing. Insurance likely will not cover if its due to rainwater, so don't let them delay your response. And check your policy. The immediate fixer people (we called ServPro) are MORE than happy to install some dehumidifiers and leave them for days on end without giving you a quote for how much it costs... and then charge an arm and a leg. Wish we'd just said no. We ripped everything out anyway. What a waste of $. Drywall, floors, insulation -- it all has to go. At least the bottom few feet. It's a huge expense. We are dealing with this part now. And no one will quote the repair until the "water mitigation" people come first. (They also charged $$$.)[/quote] Flood insurance doesn't cover much in a basement, but it does cover cleanup and remediation. It's also pretty cheap [/quote]
