Helpful Resources
For most homeowners, your insurance policy is the primary funding source for your recovery. File your claim as soon as possible — even before debris removal begins. Here is what you need to know.
- Step 1 — Document everything immediately. Before any cleanup, photograph and video your property from every angle. Capture all damage inside and out. Store photos in the cloud (Google Photos, iCloud) so they are safe.
- Step 2 — Contact your insurer. Call your insurance agent or company's claims line to start your claim. Don't wait for an official damage assessment first. If you don't have your insurer's number, check your policy documents or search your insurer's name online.
- Step 3 — Ask specifically about Additional Living Expenses (ALE) / Loss of Use. If your home is uninhabitable, you are likely entitled to coverage for temporary housing, meals, laundry, and other living costs while your home is repaired or rebuilt. Ask your insurer what's covered and keep every receipt.
- Step 4 — Track every expense. From hotel stays to take-out meals, document it all. Submit regularly to your insurer — don’t wait until the end.
- Step 5 — Review your policy coverage. Understand your Dwelling coverage (rebuilding the structure), Personal Property coverage (your belongings), and whether your policy provides Guaranteed Replacement Cost (which pays to rebuild even if costs exceed your coverage limit) or Actual Cash Value (which pays the current value of damaged property after accounting for age, wear, and depreciation rather than the cost to replace it with new).
- Step 6 — Do not accept a settlement too quickly. You have the right to negotiate. If you dispute an amount, ask for an itemized explanation and request an appraisal if needed.
What Your Policy May Cover
| Coverage Type | What It Pays For |
|---|---|
| Dwelling (Coverage A) | Repair or rebuild your home’s main structure |
| Other Structures (Coverage B) | Detached garage, fences, sheds — typically 10% of Coverage A |
| Personal Property (Coverage C) | Furniture, electronics, clothing, appliances. High-value items (jewelry, art) may have sublimits — ask your adjuster. |
| Loss of Use / ALE (Coverage D) | Hotel, food, laundry, and other living expenses while displaced — typically capped at 20-30% of Coverage A, with a 12-24 month time limit (rebuilds often take longer) |
| Vehicle Damage | Covered if you have comprehensive auto coverage (not liability or collision) |

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need to wait for a damage assessment before filing? No. File your claim immediately. The adjuster will assess damage after you have filed.
- What if my coverage isn't enough to rebuild? If insurance falls short, SBA (Small Business Association) Disaster Loans offer low-interest loans (as low as 2.5%) of up to $500,000 for homeowners. Apply at sba.gov/disaster or call 800-659-2955.
- Can the insurance company choose my contractor? Your insurer may recommend contractors, but you have the right to choose your own. Get multiple bids.
- What if I disagree with the settlement offer? You have the right to request an appraisal or dispute resolution. Washington's Insurance Fair Conduct Act (IFCA) and the Consumer Protection Act give homeowners real legal recourse if a claim is unreasonably denied or delayed — including potential recovery of attorney's fees. Contact the WA Office of the Insurance Commissioner as a first step: 1-800-562-6900 or consumer@oic.wa.gov.
- What if my insurer says flood damage isn't covered? Yes, standard homeowners' policies generally do not cover flood or mudslide damage unless you have a separate flood policy. Wildfire damage itself is covered; post-fire mudflow may require FEMA assistance.
- Is water damage from firefighting efforts covered? In most cases, yes. If your home is damaged by water from fire hoses, sprinkler systems, or other firefighting efforts used to extinguish or prevent the spread of a covered wildfire, that damage is generally covered under a standard homeowners insurance policy. Be sure to document all damage before beginning cleanup when it is safe to do so.
- Should I sign an Assignment of Benefits form? Be cautious. These forms can transfer control of your claim to a contractor. Read carefully and consult a public adjuster or attorney before signing.
- What is the WA OIC Emergency Order, and does it affect my policy? Yes. Insurance Commissioner Kuderer issued Emergency Order R 2026-01 on August 3, 2026, active through September 30, 2026 (extendable in 30-day increments). It directs all property and auto insurers in affected zip codes to: provide 45-day grace periods for premium payments; waive all late fees and reinstatement fees; and not cancel a policy for nonpayment. If your insurer is not following these requirements, reference this order and file a complaint with the OIC at 1-800-562-6900 or insurance.wa.gov.
- What if my policy isn't enough to cover what it costs to rebuild? This is more common than most homeowners expect. Coverage A limits set years ago often do not reflect today's construction costs, and homeowners typically discover this at claim time. If your insurer's estimate falls short, compare it against current per-square-foot build costs and ask your adjuster for a line-by-line breakdown. SBA Disaster Loans (up to $500,000 at rates as low as 2.5%) can help bridge the gap. See sba.gov/disaster or call 800-659-2955.
- My insurance check is made out to me and my mortgage lender — what do I do? When a home has a mortgage, insurance settlement checks are typically made out to both the homeowner and the lender. The lender's loss draft department controls the release of those funds and usually requires inspections and documentation before releasing money in stages. Contact your mortgage servicer as soon as possible, ask for their loss draft department, and request their specific requirements. Being proactive avoids delays in accessing your funds.

The Two-Phase Process
- Phase 1 — Government-Led Hazmat Removal: Spokane County and state agencies coordinate removal of hazardous materials (asbestos, chemicals, ash) before homeowners are cleared to begin any cleanup. You must wait for official Phase 1 certification before touching the site.
- Phase 2 — Debris Removal: Once Phase 1 is certified, you can begin clearing the site. Your homeowners' insurance policy typically covers debris removal — include it in your claim explicitly from day one. Get multiple bids from licensed, bonded contractors.
Asbestos & Hazardous Materials: Required Compliance Steps
Every fire-damaged property in Spokane requires a specific compliance sequence before any demolition or cleanup can begin. Skipping any step creates serious legal and health risk for you and your contractor.
- AHERA-certified inspection first. An AHERA-certified asbestos inspector must survey the property and collect samples before any demolition or debris removal begins — regardless of when your home was built. Asbestos can be present in building materials in structures of any age.
- If asbestos is found, only L&I-certified abatement contractors can remove it. Washington State L&I certification is required for any asbestos abatement work. Do not allow unlicensed contractors to handle asbestos-containing materials.
- File a Notice of Intent (NOI) with SRCA before demolition. A NOI must be filed with the Spokane Regional Clean Air Agency before any demolition begins. Contact SRCA at 509-477-4727 or visit spokanecleanair.org. SRCA is currently waiving the NOI filing fee for fire-affected properties.
- Debris goes to Graham Road Landfill. Fire debris is classified as demolition debris and must be disposed of at Graham Road Landfill. It cannot be buried on your property.
- Pre-1978 homes: EPA Lead Paint (RRP) Rule also applies. Homes built before 1978 are subject to the EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule for lead paint in addition to asbestos requirements. Only EPA-certified renovators may perform the work.

When you are ready to rebuildWhat to Know Before You Start
-
Typical rebuild timelines:
Once demolition and site remediation are complete and building permits have been issued, the home construction process typically takes 5–7 months from permit issuance to move-in. Keep in mind that demolition, environmental remediation, and permitting can take time and often determine the overall rebuilding timeline. Streamlined permitting programs may help reduce delays — check with the Spokane County/City building department to learn about any expedited options available given the circumstances.
- Spokane County Building & Planning: permits@spokanecounty.org
- City of Spokane Permits: permitteam@spokanecity.org
- Typical construction costs: New home construction in the Spokane area generally ranges from $180–$280 per sq. ft. for standard production homes, with custom designs and finishes costing more. This estimate reflects the cost of constructing the home only and does not include expenses such as demolition, debris removal, environmental remediation, utility reconnections, site work, permitting, engineering, or other fire recovery costs. Ask your builder to provide a detailed estimate and compare it with your insurer's replacement cost estimate to better understand your total rebuilding budget.
- Pre-approved building plans: Ask your city or county building department whether they are offering pre-approved plans for fire rebuild areas — this can significantly reduce permit wait times.
- Get multiple bids: From licensed, bonded, insured contractors. Beware of unsolicited contractors approaching door-to-door — predatory pricing and scams are common in disaster zones.
- SBA Disaster Loans: If your insurance falls short, SBA offers up to $500,000 for primary residence rebuilds at rates as low as 2.5%. Apply at sba.gov/disaster or call 800-659-2955.

Permitting & Regulatory Resources
- Spokane City Building & Planning: city.spokane.gov — Building permits, zoning, and fire rebuild resources
- Spokane County Building & Planning: spokanecounty.gov — County permit office for unincorporated areas
- WA State Department of Commerce: commerce.wa.gov — State-level housing recovery resources
Two programs are available to homeowners whose property was damaged or destroyed. Contact the Spokane County Assessor’s Office at 509-477-3698 or visit spokanecounty.gov to start the process.
- Destroyed Property Assessment Reduction. If your property was destroyed or significantly damaged, your assessed value can be reduced for the tax year, lowering or eliminating your property tax bill during the period of damage. Email the Spokane County Assessor at assrappraisalsupport@spokanecounty.gov to begin this process. Verify this contact directly with the Assessor’s Office, as contact information may change.
- Property Tax Exemption on Rebuild Value (ESB 5454). Washington ESB 5454 creates a property tax exemption on the value of new construction that replaces a home destroyed in a qualifying natural disaster. This means homeowners who rebuild — including those who build larger or add an ADU — are not taxed on the added rebuild value during the exemption period. File Department of Revenue Form 64-0117 with the Spokane County Assessor prior to beginning construction. Contact the Assessor’s Office at 509-477-3698 for current deadlines and eligibility requirements specific to the 2026 Spokane Complex fires.
