Two years for water damage pay out

Two years after we were flooded out as a result of construction being undertaken above our shop we received this week a cheque from the insurance company for the builder for the $10,000 in stock which was water damaged and removed by them at the time.  I hope newsagents affected by the floods in Queensland don;t have to wait two years.

    Thanks all for your thoughts. Both girls are at home today, a bit sore but otherwise OK, we were so lucky. It appears now that a tradie in the roof cavity was running some cables and unhooked something he should not have. We will of course soldier on but this is something we definitely did not need!
