  1. ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE FILING TROPICAL STORM ETA INSURANCE CLAIMS

  2. INTRODUCTION If you work or live in Florida, you know that tropical storms and hurricanes (and the resulting damages) are not just another piece of news for you. These storms, usually accompanied by heavy rainfall and high winds, are quite terrifying and often leave behind considerable damage to the life and property.

  3. EFFECTS AFTER TROPICAL STORM Most people in the Sunshine state that necessary preventive measures, but there are few, who avoid taking any action until the intensity of the storm is above the critical level. In other words, they treat tropical storms as just another rainy day of the week. However, Tropical Storm Eta clearly showed that it can be way more than that with respect to damage. Despite being a tropical storm, it was classified as Category 4 storm that wreaked havoc on different parts of Central America. The 2020 Tropical Storm hit the Florida Keys on Sunday, November 8, 2020 and soon began to move across the state. Heavy downpour and stormy winds posed danger to most parts of Florida, including South Florida.

  4. SIGNS OF DAMAGE DUE TO TROPICAL STORM ETA. Substantial storm damage is easily visible, like the wrecked roof, damaged porch, scattered or broken items, and cracked or shattered windows. So, it makes sense to look for not-so conspicuous signs of storm damage, including: • Missing or damaged shingles on the roof • Water leakage in the attic • Water stains on the walls and ceiling • Damage to outlets – check if they are working properly. Seepage in the walls can disrupt wiring and outlets

  5. HOW TO RECOVER DAMAGE FROM TROPICAL STORM ETA Flooding and flood-related losses due to Tropical Storm Eta were the biggest concern, and the storm also brought with it gusty winds and power outages. This combination of storm, water , and flood damage has left many property owners struggling with their insurers to obtain appropriate settlement amounts to recover the losses due to this unforeseen disaster. Note that flood-related damage is not covered by most homeowners’ insurance policies. It is also treated differently from water damage. However, an experienced public adjuster like Benito Paul can effectively categorize the damage you have had sustained and help you file a claim within the scope and purpose of your policy.

  6. TRUSTED TROPICAL SRORM ETA DAMAGE PUBLIC ADJUSTER The devastating Eta storm reminded us all that taking necessary precautions for any storm or hurricane is well worth the time and effort in safeguarding our home (and our pocket too) from potential damage. If your residence or business was damaged by Tropical Storm Eta, call an experienced public adjuster, who can navigate the insurance claim process appropriately on your behalf. If your claim was underpaid or denied altogether from your insurer, or you want to make your initial claim, Benito Paul can help you receive the best settlement amount possible in a fast and hassle-free manner.
