Understanding Your Insurance Coverage For Fire Damages

Fire insurance is an important part of the remediation process, and 911 Restoration works with all types of insurance policies for both commercial and residential properties. Most standard insurance policies include fire damage, however there may be a limit to the coverages paid out and restrictions on what parts of the property are included.

For these reasons, it may be wise to purchase supplemental fire damage insurance, especially if you have a detached guest house, large shed or gazebo. Supplemental plans will also pay for your living expenses if you need to live in a hotel or rental property while your home is being repaired.
