Smoke Damage Insurance Claims

Smoke Damage Insurance Claims Why You May Need a Public Adjuster

Marc Lancaric, public adjuster, was at a New Hampshire apartment building where a fire had occurred recently. The owner explained that the insurance carrier had said, “We won't be covering smoke damage beyond the neighboring apartment, this just wasn't much more than a kitchen fire.”

Marc Lancaric, now the owner's Public Adjuster responded “This is a smoke damage insurance claim as much as a fire claim, as per the policy, the insurance carrier is responsible to properly investigate and pay for actual damages, including smoke contamination throughout a property.”

Insurance carriers will commonly quickly dismiss the smoke damage caused by even a small fire in homes and businesses. Smoke is one of the strongest and penetrating in insurance losses. Smoke smell can overtake neighboring rooms, attics, basements, and wall cavities which span a building.
