Frustration

We haven't made much progress with getting our hail damage repaired.

Originally our insurance agency was going to handle everything remotely. We were supposed to get estimates from contractors to repair everything and email them along with pictures to a remote adjustor. However, because that adjustor couldn't get an aerial picture of our house for measurements, he had to hand over our claim to an adjustor who would come to the house to view the damage. The new adjustor called me on Monday to say he was in Knoxville but had no idea when he'd make it to our house. He's supposed to call us "soon" to schedule a time to come to the house.

We understand that there are many, many people with damaged homes and that our damage is relatively minor. However, we're frustrated because I've seen most of our neighbors have adjustors to their houses already including our next door neighbor who is with the same insurance agency.

Getting contractors out to the house is another frustrating matter. Contractors are so busy right now that they are turning down work (if you can even get them to answer their phone). We technically have estimates for everything we need repaired but we don't like everyone the estimates are from. So we are still working on getting more contractors out here.

And then today it hailed again. Luckily it was small (up to dime-size) but it still broke more siding off the house. Yeah.
