  3. Keep a written log with times: when you found the water, who you called, what was done. Claims with clear timelines settle faster in Archie.
  4. Photograph everything before moving anything. Open closets, pull back rugs, shoot inside cabinets. Adjusters decide claims on evidence, and memories fade.
  5. Prop up furniture on blocks or foil to keep legs out of water. Archie restoration techs do this on arrival, but every hour before that counts against your furniture.
