What Compensation Is Typically Available in a Delray Beach Property Damage Claim?
Property damage insurance policies differ from company to company and even between policyholders with the same carrier. Our attorneys review these policies regularly and know how to understand the coverage your carrier provides. We will help you document your recoverable losses and fight for the money you deserve.
We represent both homeowners and business owners in their insurance claims. The damages we typically seek, depending on their policy, include the following.
For Homeowners
Homeowners’ property damage policies generally include several expenses and losses from a covered event. This could include fire, wind, or storm damage. However, it generally does not include floods, sinkholes, or other types of disasters. We can explain your exclusions and discuss how your insurer should cover:
- Structural repairs
- Repair or replacement of personal property
- Cleanup and remediation costs
- Temporary relocation expenses, such as a hotel room, transportation costs, and food costs when you cannot cook at home
For Business Owners
The coverage provided for business owners is somewhat different than what is available for homeowners. It will still have exclusions, and structural repairs and replacement of contents are still included. However, you could have additional coverage related to your income losses.
Coverage in your business property damage policy could include:
- Structural repairs
- Replacement of point-of-sale systems and other business tools
- Replacement of damaged inventory
- Remediation and disposal costs
- Relocation expenses, if you need to move your business
- Lost business income, if you are closed for an extended time
