Q: Does homeowners insurance cover fire damage?

• <div><p>Yes, most homeowners insurance policies cover fire damage and restoration, provided the fire was not set intentionally or caused by negligence. Accidental fires, such as those from electrical issues, cooking, or gas, are typically covered. Your policy will usually cover emergency services like roof tarping, the full cost of remediation and rebuilding, and may also cover alternative housing while your home is being restored. You will be responsible for paying your policy's deductible. It is important to check your policy details to see how coverage is calculated&mdash;it may be for the full replacement cost of damaged items or the actual cash value, which accounts for depreciation. To expedite your claim, contact your insurance company immediately and have all necessary documentation ready.</p></div>

Q: Does insurance cover acts of nature?

• <div><p>Yes, most insurance plans cover acts of nature. In policy documents, this also may be called &ldquo;Acts of God&rdquo; or &ldquo;natural disasters.&rdquo; However, not all acts of nature are covered by your policy, and the extent to which they&rsquo;re covered depends on your specific contract. Check your policy documents to understand your coverage limits and exclusions.</p></div>

Q: Does a seller have to disclose fire damage when selling a house?

• <div><p>Yes, a seller is legally required to disclose any known fire damage when selling a house, including damages that were repaired. That includes damages to structural components and all major systems, as well as water damage, chemical damage, and smoke damage related to the fire. Sellers use a property disclosure statement, which is regulated by each state individually, to disclose fire damage. </p></div>

Q: Does homeowners insurance cover DIY mistakes?

• <div><p>Homeowners insurance does not cover DIY mistakes, so tread lightly if you plan to tackle your own home repairs or renovations. If you cause damage to your home while attempting repairs or renovations yourself, the cost of fixing the damage is often considered your responsibility. Most policies only cover damage caused by covered perils like fire, theft, or weather&mdash;not by homeowner errors.</p></div>

Q: Does smoke damage ever go away?

• <div><p>Smoke damage will not go away on its own, but with professional remediation and restoration, you can return your home to its original condition after a fire. Trained smoke restoration professionals can eliminate smoke damage, which can affect areas of your home that are hard to see or access, and restore or replace smoke-damaged materials.</p></div>

"The service from beginning to end was great! My technician, Jonathan, did the initial consult and was very informative and helpful. My supply air ducts needed cleaning. I was able to get an appointment that fit my schedule within a week. Jonathan did a very thorough job on each of the 3 floors of my townhouse. Jonathan showed me the videos of the clean ducts so I could see the results- immaculate!! I highly recommend this company!"

"My home has a chimney that was unsafe to use (cracked masonry liner). I dreaded the time and cost of a tear down and replacement. I contacted "Shamrock Chimney" and scheduled an appointment with their lead technician "Tony". He suggested a less costly and safer alternative (steel liner and a resealing of the outer brickwork. The work was performed over a two-day period. I am fully satisfied with the results. One thing I really apricate is the communication during the project. The "front office" would let me know by either phone or email when the project would start, and then Tony and would give me updates. All and all the whole process went smoothly. Also, this was my first time with "Angi", I hope to use their services again in the future."
