When Accidents happen: Home Vehicle Collision Repair

My house got hit by a car?!

In the world of Door Dash, Uber Eats, self-driving cars, distracted drivers, Lyft and the like it has become a more common place to have the home you live in struck by a car. Really? The answer is yes. Last year. Level Creek Property Restoration completed repairs on close to a dozen homes that were damaged in one way or another by a vehicle impact. When this happens there are a few things that can happen. Most importantly and typically, insurance companies will be involved. We have seen both the driver’s insurance company and the homeowner’s insurance company pay for the damage. Hopefully, both parties are insured.

It is important for the contractor you choose to know who they will ultimately be dealing with regarding the damage. Typically, if your insurance company is handling the claim, you will be responsible for your deductible and should be reimbursed for the deductible once your insurance company settles the claim with the driver’s insurance company. If you choose to have the driver’s insurance handle the repairs directly this is most likely not the case. Either way, you need a company that is a restoration contractor that understands the insurance process to handle the repairs. A qualified restoration contractor knows how to estimate, communicate and navigate the insurance claim process.

If your home has experienced an unfortunate run in with a vehicle, the professionals at Level Creek Property Restoration are here to help 24/7.
