What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Ca.
We have a wall in our back den that is built into a hill up to the windows at waist level. After a big storm in Feb. we noticed that he wall was leaning in a couple of inches, now is about 3 inches, you can see it by eyeballing it from the side. To make a long story short, I called the ins co. on Jun. 1st to report it and file a claim. So far they sent a const. co. out to tear open the wall to see whats going on. The const. co. stripped off all the paneling and took pictures. They put back just plywood after stripping the wall paneling off and throwing it away, leaving all the windows unsealed and big spaces everywhere, looks like a barn wall now. Now after that the ins. co. sents an engineer to look and take pictures, that was July 7th, and that is the last I have heard from ins. co. except a letter saying that they are making a determination if coverage will be given and will contact me withing 30 days. Why would they not cover this loss? It happened during a storm with heavy wind. The adjuster said that dryroot, termites or earth movement are not covered, none of which was found that I could see when the wall was opened up. Could anyone advise me as to what I should do next. Wall needs to be fixed before rainy season starts in Oct. or Nov.? Any advice, Buck
PS, How could they tear up my wall and put it back like they did and then not pay for fixing it? Looks like they are dragging this out to try to avoid paying to me.
