I was down there a few weeks ago and what a mess it was, generators, big generators all over the place.

I was at the beach today helping my friend Silver Bullet Sullivan get stuff out of his house before it will be knocked down for good.
While there I stopped at my place and noticed new parts on my gas meter were installed.

Once my electrical problems are fixed than I have to hired a guy to test the house for any gas leaks and after that the gas company will come back and re hook up the gas line to the meter.

Here we are getting stuff from Silver Bullet's beach house today:
We had to go thru the back and the pic below will tell you why.



We had to use a ladder to get in.

Here's a pic from the front of his house:


This guy was behind us working:

I'm sure he is covered for the building damage?

I'm sure he is covered for the building damage?

Not Correct. He has to hire an engineer to determine what caused the damaged. This was not flood but wind damage. However, the insurance company is claiming surge damage or something like that. The way the roof blew off, it should be a no brainer but insurance comapnies always make you fight for it.

Typical insurance companies. SCUM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Even though the event was televised ...... 15.3 million witnesses globally ...... zero water damage to be found "anywhere" ..... met office data read outs confirming the highest winds on record being measured during the height of the storm ....... "Nope", dont believe ya Mr S Bullet, we are confident it was surge damage that climbed 2 stories of your house and ripped it to pieces from the roof down.

Lets waste some money on an engineer, which of course will come off of your claim.

[Jimmie the Mum]

Absolutely correct Dave. His first floor did get water but no real damage was done to it. The second floor caused all the damaged when the roof blew off etc.
