Cold weather brings another round of snow and ice related insurance claims to the Northeast

Cold weather brings another round of snow and ice related insurance claims to the Northeast

The frigid weather and rain that has hit Boston and surrounding areas is generating more roof damage and ice dams with resulting water damage insurance claims. We’re also seeing fires related to old wiring that has been exposed by this weather.

Adjusters are maxed out and finding it difficult to get to all policyholders in a timely manner. For those dealing with ice dams, here’s a good video that ran locally on how to remove ice dams on your own.  We also offer a post we did last year during the 2014 polar vortex on dealing with frozen pipe burst claims.  

We current have a team of public adjusters handling insurance claims in the Boston and southern Massachusetts area. If you have questions regarding any property insurance claim related issues please call 800.321.4488 or contact us to submit a question to one of our insurance claim experts.  Let us know what insurance claim questions you have about your winter storm claim.
