Start with the question you need to answer today. These guides explain observations to record, distinctions that matter and questions to put to the responding business. They support the conversation; they do not diagnose a property or replace an insurer’s coverage decision.
Choose a starting point
- A new or uncertain loss: Read the immediate-response guide before entering an affected area, then use the water-source guide to describe what happened.
- A stopped leak or a proposed cleanup: Use the pipe-cleanup guide and extraction versus restoration to clarify responsibilities.
- A question about materials: See drying checkpoints, wet-drywall decisions and hidden-water-damage observations.
- A mold, backup or policy concern: Read water damage and mold, backup safety or the insurance coverage guide.
