Water Damage Insurance Claim
Public Adjusters
With unpredictable weather, storms, or even leaks, a water damage insurance claim can be a common issue for Florida homeowners. From storm damage to broken pipes to AC leaks, sewage backups, and more, water damage is destructive and can even be life-altering. If you aren’t adequately represented or prepared to fight for a fair water damage claim settlement, you’re likely to receive one that won’t cover the cost of your repairs.
Oftentimes, there’s a significant discrepancy between what the insurance company offers to settle a claim compared to the settlement you should receive. These differences can result from missed coverage entitlements, poor adjusting, improper methods of testing, inadequate documentation for the loss and a bias by the adjusters working for the insurance company to under pay. These simple, yet substantial oversights can cost people thousands of settlement dollars.
Handling the devastation from property loss and water damage is stressful enough, and the last thing you need is the additional stress of filing and managing an insurance claim. Florida’s Best Public Adjusters have extensive experience in water damage claims to help fight for the maximum payout for your claim.
What TO DO when you have water damage in Florida?
Oftentimes, the cornerstone of a comprehensive water damage claim strategy targets the fine print of the insurance policy. Taking appropriate measures and making informed decisions with a public adjuster should always be the first step in the process of receiving the settlement you deserve.
Additionally, following these additional steps should help ensure the best settlement for a water damage insurance claim
- Secure your valuables to prevent additional damage from happening.
- Record proof of the water damage.
- Request a certified copy of your insurance policy.
- Keep documentation of every point of contact with the insurance company.
- While most homeowner claims settle within 90 days, seeking help from a trusted public adjuster as quickly as possible should be a priority.

What NOT TO DO when you have storm or hurricane damage in Florida?
While the above steps can help secure a maximum claim for water damage in Florida, there are a number of actions that we see many take that have the exact opposite effect. When filing an insurance claim for water damage:
- DO NOT throw anything away. For all claims, you’ll need definitive evidence of the damage.
- DO NOT make repairs before the insurance company approves. Before determining what repairs are required, your insurance company will most likely want to inspect the damage.
- DO NOT use the insurance company’s vendors unless you are obligated to. Oftentimes the insurance company will give you a list of contractors to repair the damage. While those can be beneficial, it’s always wise to do your research for the best options. If you have your own contractors, it will be to your advantage to use them. You control the purse strings, not their vendor.
- DO NOT file your claim on your own. No matter the damage, a public adjuster can work with you to help you navigate through the complicated world of insurance claims and help you get the maximum settlement you deserve.
