I used to be an insurance adjuster. Most people never read the
policy to see what they are buying. So then they bitch and whine
when the find out what they bought. That's the first thing. Read
the damn policy BEFORE buy it.


Yes
Most of us don't understand all of the fine print.




Then call the adjuster. When they come out, give
them free run of the place and let them do their job. Then when
they present their offer to you, demand that they provide you
with the name, or names, of the skilled technicians the adjuster
believes will honor their estimate. If they refuse to do that, go
right straight to your state insurance commissioner and register
a complaint.


What about the companies that advertise they will get your home or
auto repaired properly? I assume they have contractors that will work
with them at the prices they offer.

Seems too easy to just say "go ahead, make it right and Ill be happy"
