Common friction with Allstate
Allstate may dispute mold coverage if the source water loss happened weeks earlier.
We document timing carefully and provide moisture readings dated to the discovery — clean records prevent gradual-loss disputes.
Tip: call us before you call Allstate
Restoration crews can be on-site within hours; an adjuster may take a day or two. The faster sewage starts, the smaller the final loss.
