About Hurricane Damage Claims
After a hurricane, insurance companies are inundated with claims and their adjusters are often overwhelmed, under-trained for major events, or simply incentivized to minimize payouts. Many hurricane victims accept initial offers that cover only a portion of their total loss, not realizing they are leaving significant money on the table.
Our licensed public adjusters work alongside wind mitigation experts, engineers, and contractors to build the most complete and defensible hurricane damage claim possible. We separate wind damage from flood damage (each covered by different policies), document every category of loss, and negotiate aggressively for the settlement you deserve.
How We Handle Your Hurricane Damage Claim
- Comprehensive wind, rain, and storm surge damage assessment
- Coordination with wind mitigation inspectors and structural engineers
- Separation of wind damage (homeowners) from flood damage (flood policy)
- Documentation of roof, siding, windows, doors, and interior damage
- Contents inventory and valuation for all damaged personal property
- ALE (Additional Living Expenses) and business interruption calculation

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a hurricane deductible and how does it work?
Hurricane deductibles are typically a percentage of your home's insured value (often 2–5%) rather than a flat dollar amount. We explain exactly how your deductible is calculated and how it applies to your claim.
My claim was denied because the damage was "pre-existing." What can I do?
Pre-existing condition denials after hurricanes are common and often improper. We gather evidence — including weather data, pre-storm inspections, and photo evidence — to counter these denials and fight for your entitled coverage.
