Mistake: Settling Before Mitigation Is Complete

Settling a claim before mitigation work is complete is one of the most expensive mistakes Florida policyholders make. Hidden damage, behind walls, under flooring, in HVAC, surfaces only during demolition and dry-out.

What gets missed before mitigation

  • Wall-cavity moisture and mold
  • Subfloor damage
  • HVAC contamination
  • Electrical corrosion
  • Insulation replacement
  • Framing damage

The right sequence

  1. Emergency mitigation (tarp, extract, dry)
  2. Demolition to expose hidden damage
  3. Full scope assessment with all damage visible
  4. Then negotiate and settle
