Depends on the company. I generally get a check in about a month or two
from smaller guys. Larger companies you may have to gin up a small clams
complaint and fire it across their bow to get their attention. If they
ignore it just file the thing. They probably will not show to the hearing
if they are dusting you off.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Billing for underground damage
How long does it usually take for the offending company to payout? It's
a nationwide contractor. Is it a year long process of them submitting
to their insurance and just waiting through bureaucracy?

I bill for time and materials as if I was making the repair for someone

expense. You can bill for whatever you want but if you have to litigate
it best to just try to get yourself whole. If you have proof it was
painted prior to damage it will help a bunch.

Not sure if this varies state to state, how do you bill for damage to
underground facilities? A large contractor hit one of our marked
underground lines twice in 4 days while putting in a new conduit.
Do you send them a simple invoice with a dollar amount, a fully itemized
time/materials bill? We haven't had a hit of this scale before, so I'm
not sure what they would be expecting. I'm guessing they deal with this
on a daily basis, probably have a whole team to deal with claims. Just
not sure what documentation/invoices we need to send them.
Can you bill for the time the customers were down, or purely for the
repair?
