Am I an idiot? 14821 29
Started by MMoorhead
I am just reaching out for some feedback from you veteran adjusters. I just worked my first 2 claims and 1 of them was kicked back to me for several reasons. A couple were not my fault, but two were my fault.
I over-estimated a roof claim by 2 sq. and estimated with 3 tab 25yr&160;even though it was architectural 30yr. I fixed the shingle type and sent it back, right after I did this I realized my mistake with the 2sq. fixed it and sent it again. Not to mention, I don't know how to put my esti...

In case anyone is having trouble finding a place to stay in LA, my daughter has had quite a bit of success locating places on a couple of websites:

Settle an argument about a pool 5417 22
Started by swink_d
I see I misspelled settle&160;&160; ( Can't go back and edit that part)
&160;
Not a claim&160; just a house I was at
I say the pool is part of the dwelling as there is a contious foundation from the house . Each elevation&160; down is a concrete slab with block walls and&160; foundation all tied together to the house
Someone else says its APS&160; paid at ACV .
&160;
The photo is small as all I had was the phone.
