Common friction with Liberty Mutual

Liberty has been known to scope conservatively on smoke and contents.

We provide detailed contents inventories with photos and per-item assessment. Supplement requests are usually approved when properly documented.

Mitigation cost caps can be applied without supplement room.

We provide upfront written scope with line items so the adjuster sees the full picture before any cap conversation begins.

Tip: call us before you call Liberty Mutual

Restoration crews can be on-site within hours; an adjuster may take a day or two. The faster decomp starts, the smaller the final loss.

FAQ

Liberty Mutual Decomp - FAQ

When the policyholder is the deceased, the estate files the claim — we work directly with executors and provide the documentation probate and the carrier require. Either way, Catalyst documents everything Liberty Mutual needs and bills them directly where allowed.

Liberty Mutual typically assigns an adjuster within 1-3 business days. Catalyst can begin work immediately - reasonable emergency steps to limit further damage are reimbursable. Most claims close within 30-90 days depending on scope and any supplements.

Liberty Mutual expects photos from first response, a clear cause-of-loss narrative, an itemized scope in Xactimate format, documentation of the work performed, and final verification. Catalyst provides all of it and submits directly to your Liberty Mutual adjuster.

Decomposition fluids absorb deep into carpet padding, subfloor, drywall, and even framing. Surface cleaning alone leaves residual odor and biological hazard. Our protocol accounts for sub-surface absorption.
