How to File a Claim

After a flood, you should do what you can to take the following steps, as this will maximize your chances of being fairly compensated.


  1. Take photographs and video of all damaged property and belongings. This will be crucial evidence for your claim.
  2. Understand what your insurance policy covers and the deductibles that apply. This can help you set expectations for what compensation you might receive.
  3. Contact your insurance company as soon as possible to notify them of the damage. They will inform you about the next steps, including filling out a claim form.
  4. Complete the claim form provided by your insurance company. Be thorough and provide as much detail as possible about the extent and nature of the damage.
  5. Keep a log of all communications with your insurance company, including dates, names, and what was discussed. This documentation can be important if there are disputes.
  6. Engage a skilled flood damage claim lawyer.


File Your Claim On Time

In Texas, the statute of limitations for property damage claims, including flood damage, is generally two years from the date the damage occurred. This means you must file your insurance claim within two years to seek compensation.


However, policy specifics can vary, so it’s important to review your insurance policy for any specific time limits for reporting damage or filing a claim. Hiring a lawyer can also help ensure you meet all deadlines and improve your chances of a successful claim.
