Before you file

Should I file a claim?

After damage to your home, your policy requires you to let us know. If you choose not to file, there’s a risk that you could lose coverage for damage discovered later. Allstate makes it easy to file your claim and get back to normal in no time.

Is there anything I need to know?

Keep in mind these key points before you file a claim:

  • You’ll need to pay any applicable deductibles, or your out-of-pocket expenses, before your home insurance coverage from Allstate will kick in. Go to My Account for more information on your deductibles.
  • Your premium, or the amount you pay for your policy, may increase due to a loss.

What information do I need to file a home insurance claim? What if I don’t have everything I need?

You may need the following to start your claim:

  • Contact information for contractors already involved
  • Notes on what is damaged and the potential cause of damages to your home or personal property
  • Photos of damages
  • Date of occurrence
  • Weather conditions that may have had an impact

Start your claim with any details you have so far. You can always contact your Allstate Claim Representative later through My Account as you gather more information.
