When disaster strikes an entire community, each insurance claim is joined by hundreds of others. For the insurance agent covering your West Valley City, UT, home, this means hours of effort to work through detailed paperwork. SERVPRO serves insurance companies and homeowners by offering a claims inventory system that cuts through home cleanup and repair confusion, simplifying the completion of claims for agents.

The Claims Inventory System in Action

A single insurance agent, entire firms, and claims adjusters can all use the claims inventory system to complete their paperwork more quickly. Trusted cleanup, restoration, and mitigation companies provide data, estimates, and pertinent information to the inventory. The information is then made available to professionals in the following ways:

  • An organized collection of claims, arranged by damage type as well as by type of loss.
  • Reviewed files for each individual homeowner.
  • Regional and national repair and reconstruction cost comparisons
  • Recorded response times.

While you're waiting for news about your own insurance claim, insurance personnel are sorting through the details of many homeowners' claims. The inventory makes it quick and easy for professionals to access repair estimates, client details, service options, and other pertinent information.

Actions You Can Take While Waiting


While your insurance agent is at work on your claim, there are some steps you can take to speed up the process. These include gathering documentation, such as copies of your insurance information and proof of homeownership. It's also important that you document all damages. Use written records and photographic evidence as much as possible. Although you probably don't want to work on repairs that property damage restoration professionals will cover, you should board up or tarp any openings that would expose your home to further damages.

Community Partners Working Together


There are many ways that SERVPRO works to improve property restoration in West Valley City, UT. The claims inventory system is one example of these efforts, speeding up the results of your insurance claim, so you can get back to your desired routine.
