Sorry to hear about the blaze. I live just inside I-295 off Chamberlayne if you need to borrow some bike-specific tools.

Heat-treatment - and not the good kind 
That's gotta be one of the saddest photos I've ever seen on BF.

Definitely.
Inventory lists go to places like National Vendor or Enservio for research on pricing, so if you're specific, they'll look it up. If not, they'll generalize it. Be specific. If you have to spend 40 hours compiling an inventory, you'll probably see a week's pay in additional indemnity, just by being accurate and specific.
Start in one corner of the garage/shop. Move from the ceiling to the floor, or vice versa, foot by foot, container by container, items on the floor, hanging on the wall, etc. Don't skip bar wrap, small parts, or the containers they may be in. Move foot by foot clockwise. Once you go over the walls, move into the floor space and do 4'x4' squares and try to remember what was on the floor in that space. Think about the loft or overhead storage if you had it. The garage is the easy part, structurally. Try to come up with an accurate age, and remember that some things appreciate and some depreciate. You won't get appreciated value higher than a new replacement item, but some things won't be depreciated. There may be special limits, and if there are, and they're quoted, ask for the written limit. If you've run a bike shop or fixed any bikes for pay, or flipped them, understand that "used at any time, in any way, for business purposes" may put a limit on some things. It's not malicious, it's just the way it is.
Most of these policies pay actual cash value up front with a 180-day provision to replace the items and get the remainder, called recoverable depreciation. Take the cash value for what you want, replace what you want, and keep records, but don't push that 180-day limit. Be talking to them in 120 days to keep it fresh.
If you have questions, PM me. I do this for a living. My info is first hand.

That fire sure was terrible. My parents and us kids went through one and lost a lot so I can empathize. The picture of the burned hubs et al is pitiful indeed. Best of luck to y'all including your ol' buddy the dog! Prayers and thoughts!

Syke,
I went through this about ten years ago when an arsonist decided I didn't need my storage in a garage owned by my friend. I lost all eight of my race bikes and she lost the use of her house for ten months. The fire marshal told me there was no one to interview at 2 AM so he wrote it up as an accidental fire. Still I believe it to be an arson case. But just as Robbie suggests, I was able to go through just the bikes and the values of them and my agent/adjuster stopped at my $11,000 coverage value. Had I not had a policy for offsite/personal items I would have lost all of that $, and the bikes. They are all being currently restored at a considerable cost more than what I had invested, but they are able to be restored. I feel your pain and understand the frustration that comes with what happens in a fire. The good thing is you and your family were not injured, thing can be replaced, but human life can not. Thanks for listening, Smiles, MH

Good to hear no one was hurt.
I'm a volunteer firefighter in PA. This year for fire prevention week we took a donated shed I think it was 10x12 and opened the front side, placed living room furnishings inside to simulate a living room fire. Then closed off the front with clear plastic. This allowed people to see just how fast a dwelling fire in free-burn grows.
From the time we lit the thing to the time it the roof caved was less than three minutes. The walls fell in 60 seconds later. The heat was intense even about 200 feet away, enough to melt vinyl siding.

I meet with the insurance adjuster today. Talking to him on the phone yesterday did not give me a good feeling, or, at least reminded me that this is the guy who is NOT on our side in this mess. He opens with the comment about having to ensure that there's no evidence that the fire was set (read the fire marshal's report, *******?), then during the conversation when I mentioned that this was my workshop for restoring antique bicycles, he immediately comes back with, "Oh, you were running a business out of there?" knowing damn well it's a homeowners policy. I have a feeling I'm going to have to take him to the other barn where my collection is stored, to explain the term "hobby". And, since it was an ancillary building, not the main living quarters that burned, there's going to be a definite limitation on rebuilding monies.
This is going to be an interesting afternoon.
The other fun shock out of the last 48 hours is just how much of the daily running of the household was either centered around that garage, or at least that the materials and tools needed for a given task were stored there. I'm realizing that this was the most important room of the house, in my eyes.
On the "good" side, Sears just announced that they're closing their last Richmond store (and every other VA outlet, I believe) over December and January. Looks like the rebuild of my tool collection is going to be based the same as it's original start back in 1970 - Craftsman.

Devastating, for sure. Sorry for your loss, and the associated hassles.
Looking forward, and assuming the insurance company steps up after your inventory diligence, you can look at it this way...you'll have a pot of money that you can buy specific parts with.

...this is standard for insurance companies. Every retired fire investigator I ever knew got a second job after retirement working insurance company investigations. Fire Marshall reports are famously inaccurate, both because of time pressures and because there's no real attempt in most localities to track and combat arson. I wouldn't let that worry me, in and of itself.

Agree with your "...this is standard for insurance companies." which is what I was hoping for. The guy seems to be reasonable, or at least has a professional, corporate reasonable attitude. We'll be talking the initial reimbursement check in the next day, and he'll be sending me the boilerplate Excel spreadsheet to work on the individual item loss.
On the depressing side, I found my old Campagnolo Gran Sport drivetrain setup in the ashes today. It came on the original Raleigh Gran Sport that got me back into cycling back in 2004, and was used on two different bikes (primarily my Falcon San Remo) over the years, returned to stock when I sold the frames. It's probably the one component set I'm going to try to save. Maybe my Favorite components . . . . . assuming I can find them.
Looking forward to my local Sears Craftsman sale.

Really sorry to read this, Syke! I am especially sad about the Armstrong. If there any hope for it? I see the wheels and fenders are totally shot, but the frame? Eh, I know, too many small parts gone... and doubtless you have other priorities.
Carry on!

I was hoping for that, too, but the heat was intense enough that the rear triangle is badly warped, and the fork's a bit off, too.

Syke, I'm not the type of fellow to dwell on unfortunate fate, and I'm terrible at making consoling speeches. However, I am the type of fellow to get things moving and I'd like to help.
PM me your address and I'll send a care package of bike stuff to start stocking the shelves again. Send a list of the tools that perished too, bike and non-bike; I've got duplicates of some stuff.
If you need me to hold onto the box because of storage, that's OK - just let me know.
Is it bad enough that it cannot be cold-set, or did some of the brass give way?

Syke,
I just looked at the pics again. You are lucky that the propane tank didn't blow or it would have been much worse. Keep us posted on the tool search, I'm always up for a trip to the local pawn shops. MH

One the good news side: Dug thru the tool boxes, well the ones I could pry open anyway, yesterday. Of course 99% of what's there isn't worth trying to save. What was critically important however is drawer #3 in my red tool chest, which had all the freewheel and crank removing tools, Helicomatic tools, etc. The stuff you can't find in a Park catalog, or at the closeout sale of our local Sears. Yes, they're either blackened, or rusty, and are going to need a good cleaning before I can do anything with them again, but they can be saved. These were my main worry, as I still have memories of what that Strongight 93 crank removal tool cost me a decade and a half ago (it even made a Bike Forums comment thread).
As to the Armstrong frame: Do you have an visualization of what I'm seeing when I mention the 1930's-era Studebaker "S" logo? That's how the frame warped. The is absolutely nothing in the way of a straight line on it, from the heat. Unfortunately, the bike was parked right where the fire started, and by the time I had pulled Maggie's car out of the garage, it was already totally engulfed in flames. There was no chance to save it.

If you find your Stronglight extractor tool to no longer work, PM me and I'll machine you one real quick from a bolt and nut.
In fact, if you need anything irreplaceable machined, I am at your service.
