Repair Companies
If you already have a company in mind, you can use them too. In fact, you can use any company you like, but you should check to see if they’ll guarantee your repairs.
Should I File a Claim?
Here are some things to consider if you are deciding whether to file a claim:
- Was anyone injured?
- Did you damage someone else’s property or vehicle?
- Is it unsafe to live in your home or drive your car?
- Are the damages above your deductible?
- Is it just a maintenance issue or normal wear-and-tear?
If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, you should consider filing a claim. That way we can begin collecting the information needed to resolve your claim quickly. If you have questions about filing a claim, call our service department at 954-475-8886 to speak to a dedicated Claims Advocate or contact your carrier directly.

Keep in mind, before filing a claim you’ll want to get an estimate of the damages before making permanent repairs. For home claims, consider calling a plumber or roofer to stop any issues that may cause permanent damage, like an active leak.
Call 954-475-8886 for our dedicated Claims Advocacy team to help walk you through this process, or use the online options here to notify us of your claim.
Yes, we recommend obtaining an estimate before filing a claim. Once you have your estimate, give us a call to discuss your options. We’ll also look at your policy with you to see if your estimate is above your deductible.
If a natural disaster has caused significant damage to your home, you may be tempted to begin repairs right away. We get it, you just want your life back to normal. But these small repairs can mask a lot of the damage and will make it hard for an adjuster to make a fair estimate of the repair costs.
Temporary fixes that could help prevent any further damage are a good idea, but it’s best to wait until after the insurance adjuster has taken a good solid look at your property to make permanent repairs.
Every claim is unique, and many factors determine how long it will take. Giving your claims advocate all the necessary details and documentation will help keep your claim process moving smoothly.
Flood is almost never covered on home insurance policies in Florida. It is a separate policy through FEMA or a private flood market.
This is not an easy answer. Different insurance companies will have different formulas on determining your insurance premium; one of which can be claim frequency and severity. It is our recommendation to discuss your specific claim with our claims manager to see if turning in a claim makes sense. However, all possible liability claims need to be turned in; as the insurance company needs to be put on notice.
An adjuster is a representative of the insurance company that helps settle a claim. They are not employed by us. We do not settle claims as this is done by the adjuster. However, we will assist in making sure a covered claim is paid fairly and promptly.
