Check the policy. Find out exactly what your insurance company will
pay for. You may be entitled to assistance with temporary
accommodation, drying apparatus and electricity and gas
inspections.
Take photographs or video footage of all damage, both to your
property and your possessions.
Mark the water levels on the walls for reference. Your insurance
company may appoint a builder or you may be asked to obtain
competitive quotes from several companies.
Always ensure the insurance company has given approval before going
ahead with repair work.
