Tornado/Insurance/Carpet

So,  when the tornado hit us last weekend, it blew out our MBR window...shattered across the room.  I've  tried to vacuum several times, but we still see glass shards in the light.  I'm super nervous about the kids being in there.  Do you know if insurance will likely agree to replacing it?  or, who can I call to get some support in it needing to be replaced?  (a carpet co? a restoration co?). Or, any experience getting it out.  It just seems to keep flipping up when you walk across the room.

On a side note, apparently an adjuster came out this week and we had no clue.  Our contractor gave us a quote for about $10K...and our fantastic, ignorant insurance co sent us a check for $800.  Yeah, that's gonna work out........   Despite my initial report that included that there was interior damage, they failed to realize that a broken window and a hole in the roof/soffit would probably cause interior issues, not to mention popped drywall and wet insulation.   This is gonna be a nightmare.  And all hope is lost for trying to sell the house.....now there's empty, foreclosed houses here with trees in roofs, and missing garages.  A mess. 

Alright I need sleep, and prayers that we get a new insurance adjuster.

  • I hope it works out and you stay safe.  We had  tornado just miss the house we bought last year on Tuesday.  It hit the one we almost bought instead.  I can't imagine what you are going through.  I will keep you in my thoughts.
  • I am by no means even close to familiar with how to manage all of that except to say, call your agent and see what's what, and if need be contact an attorney to help you navigate? I just wanted to let you know I am sending you my thoughts and prayers. I can't imagine what you or anyone else dealing with the fallout from these storms.Peace be with you guys.
  • I'm not going to have much advice other that recommend to have your adjuster come out or talk to an attorney?

    I think a restoration company might be able to give you advice about the glass in the carpet, but then again, I'm not sure since we haven't had to deal with that yet.

     Your family will be in our thoughts!!

    Move along, nothing to see here.....
  • I don't have any advice about this, but just know that your family is in my thoughts. I hope it all goes well for you!
