What do I do when my property is
damaged or stolen?

Contact your agent as soon as possible.  If there is damage to your home or possessions, make "emergency" repairs to protect yourself and your property from further damage, then call your agent.  For example, if some of the windows in your home have been blown out by wind, you may board them up to prevent additional damage.  In fact, your policy covers the cost of these emergency measures.

However, before setting about to make permanent repairs, call your agent.  The insurance company has the right to inspect the property in its damaged condition.  They may want to send a claims adjuster or instruct you to get an estimate from an independent contractor.

If you have property stolen, notify the police immediately and call your agent.
