Fire and Smoke Damage When You Have Valuable Antiques, Art and Collectibles
6/23/2018 (Permalink)
A fire is a devastating event, no question - but one particularly more complicated when you have valuables that are irreplaceable affected.
At SERVPRO of Great Neck/Port Washington we often encounter property owners with unique situations of all types. The matter of valuables is one worth addressing because of their monetary value and irreplaceable nature.
While you can safeguard the value end with special insurance coverage, be sure to make and keep a digital file in the cloud and in a safe deposit box with a complete inventory list with adequate invoices, bills of sale, dates of purchase/acquisition, provenance records, descriptions, valuations and photographs.
Make sure your homeowners policy agent knows that you have valuables that need coverage, don't assume your policy covers all.
If there is a fire, call in SERVPRO as soon as possible to ensure that restoration can begin on anything salvageable. We restore whatever can be saved and also will provide an inventory list of losses for your insurance claim.
We're here for you, 24/7.
