Insurance — Moss Treatment in Markham
Never dispose of failed material before the adjuster has seen it — that alone sinks a large share of Markham claims.
The claims that get paid have dated photos, a written cause-of-loss opinion, and an itemised scope. We produce all three.
Ontario carriers cover sudden and accidental damage — storm, fire, impact. Gradual deterioration is treated as maintenance and is not covered.
