Apartment Complex Restoration: Who is Responsible?

1/7/2021 (Permalink)

If you live in an apartment or a renting situation, knowing your rights and responsibilities is critical during the restoration process. Here are a few general tips and bits of knowledge to keep in mind for your home. 

• Renters Insurance is Critical! Even if your landlord doesn't require a renters insurance policy, this is the only way you can guarantee your contents and belongings are safe. Our Marketing Representative mentioned that her renters policy even covers the belongings in her vehicle being stolen as long as it occurs at her apartment. We encourage you to ask an agent about the possibilities. 
• Review and Understand your Lease! Your lease should outline procedures for property damage and what the landlord will cover. If it is not, make sure to reach out to them and clarify the plan of action for any water or fire damage. 
• Ask your Landlord to call SERVPRO! We can perform restoration services for any water, fire, mold, or storm damage you may have at your apartment with the landlord's permission.
