How To Scope A Loss Like a Pro and Avoid Costly Mistakes | Public Adjuster Basics

In this episode, I break down the essentials of properly scoping a loss after a major disaster like Hurricane Helene or a flood. I’ll show you how I document the damage step by step, including how to take detailed photos, use a moisture reader, and measure flood lines accurately. It's all about being thorough—show your value and get the job done right!

Key topics covered:

📸 Importance of taking exterior and interior photos in a specific order.

📏 How to measure and document each room, and why it's crucial to note every detail (like flooring type and baseboard height).

💧 How to use a moisture reader to assess the extent of water damage and decide where flood cuts are necessary.

🚪 What to include in your scope notes for the estimator, from door replacements to flooring and drywall cuts.

💼 The importance of contents coverage and documenting personal belongings separately from dwelling damage.
