Quick answerHomeowners, renters and business insurance often cover sudden events like a death, crime or injury at the property. VerdaCrest documents the scene, writes the estimate, and works with your adjuster. For crimes, Wisconsin’s crime victim compensation lists up to $1,000 for crime scene cleanup, and Illinois has its own program. We help with both.
Insurance
We handle the claim paperwork
Give us your insurer’s name and policy number if you have them. We photograph and document the scene, write a clear estimate, and answer the adjuster’s questions so you don’t have to relive it on the phone.
If the adjuster wants to see the scene, we coordinate that too. The scope you approved is what we bill for.
Victim assistance programs
Help that fits your situation
If the cleanup follows a crime, Wisconsin’s Crime Victim Compensation program lists up to $1,000 for crime scene cleanup. In Illinois, the Attorney General’s program can cover cleanup too, after insurance.
Each program has deadlines and rules. We’ll tell you which one applies, help with the paperwork, and wait on payment while it’s processed.
Paying for it
Money is the last thing you should worry about today
Nobody asks for a card before we help. Here’s how the cost usually gets handled:
- Homeowners, renters or business insurance often covers sudden events like a death, crime or injury. We process the claim with you and talk to the adjuster.
- Victim assistance programs. Wisconsin lists up to $1,000 for crime scene cleanup, and Illinois has its own program. We help you find the one that fits your situation.
- Approved before we start. You see the scope of work and agree to it first. No surprises later.
- No money up front. Anything left after insurance or a program is explained in writing before work begins.
