After a storm hits, waiting on a slow-walking insurer shouldn't be part of the recovery process.
Severe storms leave behind roof damage, broken windows, downed trees, and structural harm, and insurance companies are often slow to pay for all of it. Storm claims are among the most frequently underpaid and delayed.
We document the damage right after the storm, coordinate with contractors on repair estimates, and hold your insurer accountable for a fair and timely settlement.
After the storm passes
Photograph and video all damage before any cleanup or tarping, from as many angles as you safely can, including the yard, roof line, fencing, and vehicles. Make temporary repairs to prevent further damage, because your policy requires it, but keep every receipt and every damaged item you remove. Report the claim promptly and keep notes of every conversation with the insurer, including dates and names.
The delay-and-underpay pattern
After a major storm, insurers face thousands of claims at once, and the pattern is predictable: slow inspections, quick lowball estimates that miss hidden roof and water damage, and pressure to accept a first check as final. A storm-chasing contractor knocking on your door isn't the answer either; unlicensed repairs can compromise both your home and your claim. We coordinate with licensed contractors on the true scope of repairs and hold the insurer to a fair, timely settlement.
