What types of property damage require emergency response?
Emergency response is necessary whenever there is potential for the damage to worsen or future damage may occur. A few common examples include:
Water Damage – Once water damage occurs, it is a ticking clock as the more time that goes by, the worse the damage will ultimately be. In addition to serious additional damages such as mold growth, water will continue to wick into previously dry building materials, dramatically increasing the extent of damages. As water damage worsens quickly, we strongly recommend contacting your local Disaster Blaster right away so that an emergency response team can start assisting you as quickly as possible.
Sewage Backup / Biohazard Cleanup – Due to the high level of contaminants in sewage water and the potential for you or your family to be exposed to dangerous pathogens, sewage backup and biohazard situations should be addressed immediately.
Storm Damage – Mother nature can leave a lot of damage in her wake, and that damage often provides an opportunity for further moisture intrusion and damage. While it may only look like a few missing shingles or some broken siding, that damage leaves your home exposed to potential additional damage. Disaster Blaster’s team of professionals will evaluate the storm damage and take steps to prevent further damage before it even occurs!
Fire / Boardup – When fire occurs, it is common for there to be damage to roofing, windows, or doors that may need to be boarded up to prevent rain, snow, or even animals from getting into your home. When boardup is necessary, Disaster Blaster’s team will be able to assist in addressing these issues and can even review the damages with your insurance company to speed up approval of the restoration services.
Do you work with my insurance company?
Emergency response is necessary whenever there is potential for the damage to worsen or future damage may occur. A few common examples include:
Disaster Blaster is happy to work with all insurance companies and will prepare documentation, photographs, and billings / estimates to make their handling of your claim easier.
Following the emergency services, your local Disaster Blaster team will be able to help review the extent of damages, necessary repairs, and the scope of work still necessary with your insurance adjuster so that this work can be approved as quickly as possible.
What happens after the emergency services have been completed?
Once the emergency services are completed, we will review the scope of work / repairs still necessary at your property with your insurance adjuster and will request approval for this work. This process can take some time as your adjuster will need to review everything, along with your policy, before they will approve the work to begin.
Once approved, your local Disaster Blaster team will work to get the remaining services scheduled with you as quickly as possible.

Mold is a common issue that we discover following emergency water damage events, but don’t worry, Disaster Blaster is able to assist you with any necessary Mold Remediation as well!

What you should do if you discover property damage
Do Contact your local Disaster Blaster
Disaster Blaster knows how to address Emergency Water Damage, Storm Damage, and Boardup issues, and can begin preparing the necessary documentation for your insurance company!
Do Contact a Plumber when necessary
For broken pipes or backups, a plumber will be necessary to repair the broken pipe or unclog the blockage. In the meantime, turn off water to the broken pipe whenever possible.
Do Document Damage
Take pictures of any property damage that you see, including water damage to your home and contents, and keep a list of anything that has to be disposed of.
Do Clean up Standing Water
The longer water sits, the more damage it can do, so it’s important to mop up as much as you can.
Do Turn Off Electric
When safe to do so, turn off power to the area of your home affected by water damage.
Do Save Documents & Receipts
Your Insurance Company will need any documentation or receipts that you have to assist you with your claim. We recommend saving any documentation or receipts related to the damages at your property or out-of-pocket expenses caused by those damages so that you can review potential reimbursement opportunities with your insurance adjuster.
