Many NJ residents suffered serious damages and losses as a
result of Hurricane Sandy. Fortunately, a lot of these residents had good
insurance coverage that allowed them to rebuild or repair their homes. On the
downside, however, many of these residents are rebuilding or repairing in ways
that aren’t in line with federal flood insurance codes.
While FEMA alerted the NJ Department of Environmental
Protection to the problem and claims that most contractors know the rules they
must abide by, homes that are not in line with federal flood laws are still
going up. This could cause some homeowners to not be eligible for insurance or
to have to pay penalties.
Because flood laws can be difficult to understand, it’s very
important that you have a property
claims adjuster on-staff who knows and fully understands all flood related
codes. If you need some help understanding these codes and helping customers to
obey them, secure the services of an expert property claims adjuster through HC
Adjusters of New Jersey.
