🚫Relying on Opinions Instead of Facts 🚫

The number one mistake I see contractors making when doing insurance work is relying on opinions and not facts.

Most adjuster objections to our estimates are mere opinions or internal policies, not actual facts stated in the homeowner’s policy

🔍Example: Ridge and Starter is included in the 10% waste factor.

🤔By relying on facts and reference external authorities like local codes, manufacturer specifications, or OSHA regulations, we can prove our case with certainty.
