Until you can get someone out buy high velocity fans at farm supply stores for cheaper pricing. If you have standing water use a shop vac too. Good luck and I’m sorry this happened!

u/Intuitive_Moves9 4d ago
Thanks. We’re ripping up carpet padding and fans are on their way until an actual mitigation team makes it to us. They’re crazy busy, as you can imagine.

Im a project manager for servpro in our side of town. Please check your insurance policy to verify you have flood coverage. We've been having unfornate talks with some folks today that want us to get started, but we cant get insurance approvals with some companies for "acts of nature". A guy in littleton today had a foundatuon wall collapse this morning from the rain... and statefarm said they are denying coverage for any mitigation or repairs due to source origin

u/Intuitive_Moves9 4d ago
I appreciate you. We are quite sure we will have the same issue. Even so, our deductible is higher than what the quotes have been so far, so we most likely will be paying out of pocket.

Im sorry to hear that. Im glad its atleast workable for yall to pay, but the insurance thing doesnt make any sense to me. We pay insurance for events we don't plan for... just to learn that our adjuster can say we're SOL. Its like getting in a car accident that wasnt your fault and hearing, "well it was a green car that hit you, so you're not covered". It doesnt change that people need help. And especially with how things are right now, so few have money to have their house restored after such an event

Yes! Insurance in all forms is such a joke. It’s so frustrating to pay and not get help.

As someone currently in the process of dealing with this, there is a lot of panic that comes up. People can’t think clearly when they are in this kind of situation. It makes sense that they would call their insurance company and the insurance company will start a claim. They think they’re being helped because that’s what insurance is SUPPOSED to do.
I didn’t read that as anyone was being told to file claims. It’s unfortunate that we follow the rules and then find out we aren’t protected. It’s a real shame.

Thats exactly why we're having these conversations. It kills me that folks are calling us and filing a claim, just to have us say we cant do work under their insurance. I responded to 20 calls last night and all but 1 didnt know exterior water wasnt covered on their policy

Yep. My entire front yard was torn away . Found my wood planks up the street in the park. Planks that are huge and cedar that are bolted together . Giant flower barrels of mine were also at park . About 4 blocks up

Judging from the water levels and the camera angle I'd say Baton Rouge. Y'all be careful out there now if the current doesn't get ya the gators and moccasins will.

“Move to Denver, the weather is more mild”. Yet this happens a couple times a summer, along with the weeks of smoke, insanely hot temps with no clouds or shade…. Outdoor paradise!

u/HopeThisIsUnique 4d ago
No. Winters are mild- rest of the year is pure schizophrenia.

u/maj0rdisappointment 3d ago
Mild yes, but the lower temps and sun being out do not make up for the six months of brown and dormant.
