Filing a Progressive water or mold claim in Kirkwood

More than 40% of Kirkwood predates 1940, and the brick-bungalow and Victorian stock on limestone-rubble foundations defines the restoration profile. Progressive’s Kirkwood book runs through underwriting partners (ASI / Progressive Home, Homesite, others). The claim handler and network depend on the actual underwriter. We work with Progressive claims across Kirkwood and write our scopes to the underwriter’s Xactimate price list.

What Progressive claims look like in Kirkwood

The recurring Progressive patterns we see in Kirkwood are heavy-rain sewer backups, foundation seepage in rubble basements (typically excluded), plaster-wall losses from second-floor bathroom failures, and ice-dam intrusion. Tear-down rebuilds shift to conventional drywall and PEX profiles. The water backup endorsement is required for sewer backup (availability depends on underwriter). Mold is covered only when caused by a sudden, covered event.

How we handle the scope

We identify the underwriter on intake. For pre-1940 stock, we segregate the sudden event from foundation seepage and document plaster assembly conditions with photographs. We write Xactimate-compatible estimates on the underwriter’s price list and include plaster repair line items where the assembly is intact. Direct-bill access depends on the underwriting partner’s network. Non-network work flows to the insured and mortgagee. On Progressive files, our first task is identifying the actual underwriter (ASI / Progressive Home, Homesite, or another partner) because the price list, network access, and direct-bill mechanics all depend on the underwriter, not on Progressive itself.
