FAQs
How does a public adjuster differ from an insurance company adjuster?
An insurance company adjuster works for the insurer, aiming to minimize payout. As public adjusters, we work exclusively for you, the policyholder. We assess the damage, prepare a detailed claim, and negotiate with the insurance company to ensure you get the maximum settlement you're entitled to. We handle all the paperwork and communication, so you can focus on your family and home.
Do you handle both the adjusting and the actual restoration work?
We are primarily public adjusters, not contractors. However, we work closely with trusted restoration professionals to ensure repairs are done properly and at fair costs. Our main role is to evaluate your loss, document it thoroughly, and negotiate your insurance claim. We can recommend reliable restoration companies and oversee the process to make sure your claim covers all necessary repairs.
I live in Laguna Beach and recently had water damage to my hardwood floors. How can you help with freeze-thaw damage or mold?
Water damage is common in Laguna Beach, especially from freeze-thaw cycles that can burst pipes. We have extensive experience with hardwood floor damage, mold remediation, and condo water losses. We'll inspect your property at no cost, identify all covered damage, and build a comprehensive claim. Our knowledge of local building codes and insurance policies helps ensure you receive enough funds to restore your home to pre-loss condition, including drying, mold removal, and floor replacement.
