When to loop us in
The strongest claim files include a written pro assessment before the first adjuster call. We turn those around in 48 hours and share directly with the carrier.
Photos adjusters actually want
Adjusters ask for: wide shot of the affected area with a reference object, close-up of the damage, opposite-side shot showing intact structure for comparison, and one photo of any prior crown replacement report or invoice.
Typical claim outcomes on Barrie policies
Sudden events (storm, animal, appliance failure) usually settle at $981–$1,570 minus deductible. Gradual wear (freeze-thaw over years) is almost always denied — document the triggering event carefully.
