    I would like to see an option ask the customer if they foresee using their homeowners insurance to pay for the damages.


    We have seen many pipe, leaks and bursts that lead to larger projects that should be covered by insurance.


    By the time we educate the homeowner, they are too frazzled to even make the right decisions.


    Thumbtack should build an option for the homeowner to work with a company that is skilled in getting the insurance company to cover the damages.


    Public adjuster, experienced vendors, and restoration companies would then be able to do more for the homeowner who is already strapped for cash prior to us visiting their property to perform a necessary service for them.

    This should not be a time to haggle, but a time for us all to come up with a solution that’s best for the home.


    please consider this option, we are able to get more information on if request requested.

    Hi @DerHilfer_LLC! We don't have any "temporary phone numbers for user privacy" — can you clarify what you mean?

    Ok yes! That was a pilot that did not end up rolling out - we do not have any temporary numbers :) It also wasn't an option for customers or pros, number were automatically masked, but expired after 45 days.

    As I mentioned above, that was a pilot that did not ship, but thanks for the feedback anyway :)
