We work alongside the adjuster on Covina claims rather than around them, which keeps the scope honest and the timeline shorter. Policies covering Covina properties generally pay for sudden damage and not for age, so the report has to separate the two clearly. Put simply, a Covina adjuster works from the scope in front of them, which is why the contractor's report has to be thorough.
