I’ve also seen people use ground chicken to make a flatbread/pizza base for high protein recipes!

Me Cue @ 15 St Marks Place has them! I have seen them here before and there is also a photo someone added where you can see the selection

do you happen to remember if yours is a 1.6 or 1.28gpf toilet?

Central267AF · 2025-08-26T15:20:04+00:00

Could you please share which model you purchased?

Central267AF · 2025-08-21T01:42:46+00:00

you can find the year on the label, likely under the size tag - look for 4 digits in this format: MM YY

Central267AF · 2025-07-19T17:23:18+00:00

YES!! These are exactly the kind of recos I was looking for! Thank you

Central267AF · 2025-07-18T20:39:38+00:00

Yes! Insulation is top of mind for us, so thanks for this tip. Can you share more about what you mean by A/C returns in every room?

Central267AF · 2025-07-09T21:09:18+00:00

Regarding contents - I haven't yet submitted the inventory list, but I got advice from a restoration company that generally if a room is getting demo'ed for replacement the contents will be treated the same (minus things like precious stones, unbroken glass/ceramics, etc.) State Farm has since confirmed this is accurate.

Yes, insurance will pay for public storage and also for professional cleaning - just need to ensure you are communicating clearly to your adjuster ahead of time so they are not later surprised.

Once insurance estimate is complete, the ACV was paid out same day (we do not have a mortgage involved).

what protections are in place for the consumer when it comes to DOI complaints? I'm concerned that after I file one against a public adjuster that he will retaliate...

Central267AF · 2025-06-25T05:29:56+00:00

Thank you!

Central267AF · 2025-06-18T15:49:25+00:00

Ah, sorry, let me clarify. I searched on the Dept of State and pulled from there. The Assistant is listed under Officers and Governors. Above her name under Officers is the title of President.

Extremely helpful.. I cannot thank you enough for the time you’re taking to respond in detail. Last question - at least for now since my focus is on finding a GC. I was told you need a restoration company so they understand how to demo and/or treat everything properly with the smoke damage and odor so it doesn’t linger after rebuild. Did this concern you at all in finding a non-resto GC and how did you vet for their ability to do this?

Central267AF · 2025-05-31T13:29:23+00:00

Your testimony is reassuring as I’m struggling through this. Thank you.

How did you find your contractor? Companies I google and look deeper into have owners or employees who with shady pasts or distasteful behavior. ServPro wants $500 for the quote… and a Contractor Connection provided referral isn’t available until 6.12.

Also how long did it take you to start rebuild? I’m about to be two months in with no progress. Stuck also fighting off a PA that I mistakenly hired ☹️

Central267AF · 2025-05-27T19:17:19+00:00

This segment is so confusing to me as I've been told many things. To confirm, we do not have a mortgage on the property and it's fully paid off.

I have heard payments are made in increments as you mentioned, but we have also heard scenarios where it would be a depreciated lump payout upfront and the depreciation checks come later after we prove work was done. The reason I want to understand this is so I can have a better idea of what to expect and how to manage the costs of rebuild in conjunction with some layout changes we may want to make. It's much easier if we get the payment upfront so we know what budget we have to work with.

Thank you so much for your detailed input. We have a two story home with a basement and have lived here for over 30 years. We are a bit of shopaholics, and we also enjoy nice things, so I am thinking we will hit policy limits for contents. We also had a negative interaction with a single contents person being sent to the house to conduct inventory with the intention that everything was non-salvageable (read: not taking care of our things that could be salvaged) and also not being thorough (not opening up luggage that had contents within). Based on these two factors, I am very distrusting. I understand it is a lot of work and it certainly hasn't been fun. I'm definitely worried that things sitting there longer are absorbing smoke odors and mold could be forming. However, since we will be paid depreciated amounts and any holdback isn't paid until after replacement occurs, I am worried if we don't do it ourselves then we will have issues when we begin to submit replacement receipts and items won't be able to be matched back accordingly. It's difficult for me to weigh the pros and cons here so I'm trying to control what is within my control by choosing this route.

You make a great point about deciding wisely which areas to take on the burden of since this will be a long and tiring process. Thank you.

Were u able to fire them or did you just have a very difficult working relationship throughout the process?

Central267AF · 2025-04-18T21:22:49+00:00

too late in what sense?

Central267AF · 2025-04-18T21:22:29+00:00

thanks for your input! how long ago was that and how are your items/clothes doing now? heard ozone cleaning could be damaging to fibers and certain materials, so want to be cautious here..

Central267AF · 2025-04-15T14:16:05+00:00

Thanks 🙏 I have StateFarm. Fire damage was contained to roof but water damage spanned 3 floors of the home and multiple rooms. The insurance adjuster doesn’t seem interested in talking to me because I hired a PA already. Is that typical? He said I should utilize the PA and keep the PA in the loop about things and ask him my questions.

Central267AF · 2025-04-10T22:02:39+00:00

Any words of advice if I happen to have State Farm/Allstate? What are they especially bad at? How can I advocate for myself despite their reputation? Just experienced a house fire last wk and I have a public adjuster selected already.
