What to ask, and why

Will a call center take my info and nobody shows up?
Ask whether requests go to the company's own staff or an answering service, then ask who is coming and roughly when.
Am I signing away my insurance claim?
Ask what each document does before you sign. Work should be documented in an estimate, authorization, or written scope, and the insurer decides coverage.
Will equipment stay longer than needed?
Ask for the moisture readings that show drying is progressing; equipment should come out when materials are dry.
Who can shut off my water?
If you can't close the main, contact your water provider; for most of Denver that's Denver Water, which can shut off at the curb stop.
Will I get photos for my claim?
Ask for photos and moisture readings from the first visit onward.
