Important Steps to Take

  • In an emergency, call 911 immediately.
  • If a crime has occurred, contact the police to file a report.
  • Document the scene with photos or videos to capture any damage or loss.
  • Report your claim to your insurance agent or Acuity as soon as possible.


While it may be tempting to start cleaning up right away, it’s important to wait until your insurance company has assessed the damage. Preserving the scene ensures a thorough evaluation. The only exception is making temporary repairs to prevent further loss or damage.
