    Houston's Trusted Public Adjusting Firm

    Houston property owners face unique insurance challenges that demand specialized expertise. As the nation's fourth-largest city and a major Gulf Coast metropolitan area, Houston experiences devastating hurricanes, catastrophic flooding, severe thunderstorms with damaging hail, and infrastructure failures that cause extensive water damage.

    From Hurricane Harvey's unprecedented $125 billion in damage to frequent severe weather events that sweep through Greater Houston, Katy, The Woodlands, Sugar Land, Pearland, and surrounding communities—Houston policyholders know firsthand how insurance companies respond to major claims: with lowball offers, claim denials, and aggressive tactics designed to minimize payouts.

    Why Houston Property Owners Need Public Adjusters

    Hurricane and Storm Surge Damage: Houston's proximity to the Gulf of Mexico makes it vulnerable to direct hurricane strikes and tropical storm impacts. Insurance companies routinely dispute whether damage was caused by covered wind or excluded flood, particularly in areas like Galveston Bay, Clear Lake, and coastal neighborhoods. We meticulously document wind damage patterns and timing to ensure proper coverage application.

    Flood Damage Complexity: Houston's notorious flooding issues—from hurricanes to flash floods caused by intense rainfall—create complicated insurance scenarios. Many homeowners discover too late that their standard homeowners policy excludes flood coverage, requiring separate NFIP or private flood insurance. We navigate these multi-policy claims to maximize total recovery across all applicable coverage.

    Hail Damage in Greater Houston: Severe thunderstorms bringing large hail frequently strike the Houston metro area, causing significant roof and property damage. Insurance adjusters often claim hail damage is minor or cosmetic, denying full roof replacement coverage. Our detailed hail impact assessments document the true extent of damage and justify proper compensation.

    Water Damage and Mold: Houston's humidity and frequent water intrusion events create ideal conditions for mold growth. Insurance companies try to exclude mold coverage or claim it resulted from maintenance neglect rather than a covered peril. We establish causation and document timelines to ensure water damage and resulting mold issues are properly covered.

    Freeze and Burst Pipe Damage: The February 2021 winter storm proved how devastating freeze events can be in Houston. Thousands of homes suffered burst pipes, collapsed ceilings, and extensive water damage. Insurers denied claims by arguing homeowners failed to winterize plumbing or maintain heat. We fight these unfair denials with evidence-based documentation of covered sudden and accidental pipe failures.

    Commercial Property and Business Interruption: Houston's massive commercial real estate market—from the Energy Corridor to the Texas Medical Center—faces unique property damage risks. Hurricane shutdowns, flooding, and severe storms can halt operations for weeks. We handle complex commercial claims including building damage, equipment loss, inventory destruction, and business income coverage to minimize financial impact on Houston businesses.

    What Houston-Area Clients Say

    "My house was destroyed in the last hurricane that floated through Texas. My insurance company initially paid out a portion of what it actually cost to fix my entire house. Miles responded and showed up to my house within 36 hours. He pointed out several areas that the insurance adjuster overlooked and showed compassion through the whole process. Miles expedited everything and made sure I was fully compensated. Finally back in my house and glad I went with this company."

    Derrick W.

    "After getting a tree that destroyed 2/3rds of my house the insurance was not offering to give me $8,000. With Miles' help I was able to rebuild my house. Thank you for everything that you do. You've been a blessing to me and my family."

    Jorge G.

    "I cannot say enough to express the appreciation I have for Corbitt Public Adjusting. Following Hurricane Beryl, my insurance all but refused to pay anything toward repairing my home. My roof needed replacing, floors, doors, and many other areas of my home. This firm went to bat for me and didn't stop until they achieved the goal. Despite countless denials, appraisals, and over a year of back and forth, Corbitt won and I received a much needed settlement offer. They deserve all the stars available."
