Florida Claims We Handle

Common Florida Property Damage Types

We handle every type of claim and know how Florida carriers respond to each one.

Hurricane Damage

Florida sees more hurricane landfalls than any other state. Wind damage, roof failures, storm surge, and structural losses from hurricanes require expert documentation to recover full replacement costs.

Wind Damage

Even tropical storms and severe thunderstorms produce high winds that destroy roofs and siding across Florida. Carriers frequently cite code upgrade exclusions to reduce payouts. Aware Owner fights those disputes.

Water and Flood Damage

Flooding from storm surge, heavy rain, or plumbing failures is one of the most common Florida claims. Aware Owner works across both homeowners and flood policies to maximize total recovery.

Mold Damage

Florida's heat and humidity accelerate mold growth rapidly after any water intrusion. Mold claims require fast action and thorough documentation. Aware Owner knows how to build an airtight case.

Fire and Smoke

Residential and commercial fire claims in Florida are among the most complex, involving structure, contents, smoke, and additional living or business interruption expenses.

Denied Claims

Florida has seen widespread claim denials in recent years as carriers face financial pressure. A denial is not final. Aware Owner reviews your policy and fights for what you are owed.

Questions

Florida Public Adjuster FAQ

What does a public adjuster do in Florida?
A public adjuster in Florida works exclusively for the policyholder, not the insurance company. They document damage, interpret policy language, and negotiate your settlement. Florida law requires public adjusters to be licensed by the Florida Department of Financial Services.
Does homeowners insurance cover hurricane damage in Florida?
Most Florida homeowners insurance policies cover wind damage from hurricanes, but hurricane deductibles are typically higher and calculated as a percentage of the insured value. A licensed public adjuster can help you navigate all applicable coverages.
How much does a public adjuster cost in Florida?
Aware Owner charges a percentage of the total settlement we recover for you. Florida law caps public adjuster fees. If we do not recover anything additional, you owe nothing.
What is the deadline to file a property damage claim in Florida?
Florida law requires policyholders to file hurricane and windstorm claims within three years of the date of loss. Other claims may have different deadlines depending on the policy.
Can Aware Owner help with mold damage claims in Florida?
Yes. Mold is a significant issue in Florida's humid climate. Mold claims are often disputed by insurers. Aware Owner documents the source, scope, and costs and fights for full coverage.
