You are not too late to organize your claim
Whether you documented before the loss or are starting now, structured proof speeds settlement and reduces disputes with your carrier.
First 48 hours after a loss
Secure the property if safe — document temporary repairs with photos and receipts.
Contact your carrier to report the loss and get your claim number.
Photograph every room, even damaged areas, before cleanup begins.
Save receipts for emergency lodging, supplies, and temporary repairs.
Documenting retroactively
Pre-loss documentation is ideal — but many homeowners start after disaster strikes. Cadastre Home helps you organize what you have now and build forward from there.
- → Walk room by room with your phone — capture what remains and note pre-loss items from memory.
- → Upload any surviving receipts, photos, or purchase records you still have.
- → Export what you have now — partial documentation beats none when contents are disputed.
