Homeowners Claims

Home insurance claim not matching the actual damage?

On a property claim, the carrier's payment follows the carrier's scope. If the scope missed rooms, materials, methods, or code requirements, the payment reflects that scope — not the loss. The first step is comparing what was written to what is actually there.

Where a matter constitutes public adjusting in your state, it is handled as licensed public adjusting — not relabeled as consulting.

The estimate describes a house.

We check whether it describes yours.

Room dimensions, materials, damaged components, access, and required methods are all verifiable against documentation and field observation.

Losses and issues we look at

  • Fire and smoke damage
  • Water, plumbing, and appliance discharge
  • Hail damage to roofing and exterior components
  • Wind and storm damage
  • Roof repair versus replacement disputes
  • Structural damage
  • Contents and personal property
  • Scope items omitted from the carrier's estimate
  • Depreciation applied to materials and components
  • Repair pricing and labor
  • Contractor and carrier estimate disagreements
  • Engineering or causation report disputes
  • Appraisal, where the policy provides for it

Texas and Florida property claims

Property claim assistance in Texas and Florida can involve licensed public adjusting. Where your loss is located in a state where we hold the applicable license and the work is regulated activity, it is presented and handled that way, subject to the claim, the license, the law, the contract, and the circumstances. Elsewhere, the available service may be consulting, documentation, or valuation analysis instead.

What helps most on the first review

The carrier's estimate, the declarations page or policy if you have it, photographs of the damage, any contractor estimate, inspection or engineering reports, and correspondence about what was approved or denied.

Send the estimate and the photos of your home.

We'll compare the written scope to the documented damage and tell you where the two appear to diverge.
