Subject: Questions about the kitchen water repair estimate
Hello, I reviewed the estimate and have a few scope questions. Could you please show me where floor protection, contents handling, and baseboard reset are included? I would also like clarification on whether the texture and paint extend to a natural break, and whether the documented cabinet moisture supports reset or replacement. If any item is not included, please review it for addition and send me a written response.
Thank you,

Short word or phone script
I am calling to understand the repair estimate. Can you show me where floor protection, contents handling, and baseboard reset are included? I also need clarification on the texture, paint, and sink base cabinet. Please tell me what is already included, what still needs documentation, and what you will review for a revised estimate.
The owner sends the email and speaks with the adjuster. Property Loss Pro does not negotiate on the owner's behalf.
What the Estimate Check is not
- Not just a punch list.
- Not a full file review.
- Not a rebuild bid.
- Not a coverage decision or legal advice.
- Not a guarantee of payment.
- Not restoration work or public adjusting.
Aaron personally approves every report before the owner sees it.
This focused first look is the door into deeper review, not a replacement for it. The $99 credits toward the $349 Comparison or the $600/$800 full owner file review within 30 days on the same loss.
