How much does a public adjuster cost in Palm Beach County?

Nothing upfront. Country Public Adjusters works on a contingency basis — we only get paid when you receive your settlement. Our fee is a percentage of the payout we recover for you, and your initial property inspection is completely free with no obligation.

We handle all types of hurricane and storm damage in Palm Beach County, including roof damage, wind damage, water intrusion, flooding, siding damage, fallen trees, and structural damage. From West Palm Beach to Boca Raton to Jupiter, we serve all Palm Beach County communities.

How long do I have to file a hurricane damage claim in Florida?

Florida law requires you to report property damage to your insurer promptly, and recent legislation has shortened filing deadlines significantly. We strongly recommend contacting us immediately after storm damage — the sooner you file, the stronger your claim.

Will hiring a public adjuster delay my Palm Beach County insurance claim?

No. In most cases, hiring a public adjuster speeds up the process because we submit thorough, professionally documented claims from the start. Insurance companies process well-documented claims faster than incomplete ones filed by homeowners on their own.

Palm Beach County Storm Claims

Palm Beach homeowners get lowballed. Here's why — and how we stop it.

Palm Beach County stretches 47 miles along the Atlantic coast and encompasses diverse communities from the oceanfront luxury of Palm Beach and Boca Raton to the equestrian estates of Wellington and the family suburbs of Boynton Beach and Lake Worth. Despite this variety, every community shares one thing: direct exposure to Atlantic hurricanes and tropical storms that track up Florida's eastern coast every season.

After a storm, insurance companies send adjusters to minimize what they pay out — not to fairly compensate you. They arrive fast, inspect quickly, and present settlement offers while you're still dealing with the immediate aftermath. We've seen Palm Beach homeowners in Boca Raton receive $20,000 settlement offers for roof and water damage that cost $110,000 to restore. The difference isn't negotiation skill — it's having a licensed public adjuster document every item before you accept a dollar.

High property values in Palm Beach County cut both ways. Your home may be worth more — but insurance companies fight harder on higher-value claims. They have more to gain by finding exclusions, attributing damage to wear and tear, or rushing a low offer before you realize how extensive the damage actually is.

Palm Beach County's distinct storm damage challenges

Palm Beach County sits at a pivotal latitude — storms approaching from the south often make landfall near Palm Beach after grinding through Miami-Dade and Broward, while systems curving from the Bahamas and Atlantic can strike Palm Beach County first. Hurricane Frances and Hurricane Jeanne struck in the same season (2004), leaving billions in damage across the county. Hurricane Irma caused widespread roof damage in Wellington, Boynton Beach, and Delray Beach in 2017.

The county's older housing stock in Lake Worth and Greenacres is particularly vulnerable to wind events. Newer planned communities in Wellington, Palm Beach Gardens, and Jupiter face water intrusion through poorly sealed envelope systems. Coastal properties from Boca Raton to Juno Beach face Atlantic storm surge and ocean-driven flooding. Every neighborhood has a different risk profile — and we know all of them.

What We Document in Palm Beach County

Every type of storm damage we find for you.

🏠

Hurricane Wind & Roof Damage

Lifted shingles, cracked tile, torn flashing, and ridge cap failures across Palm Beach County's mix of older and newer construction — including damage the adjuster called cosmetic or pre-existing.

🌊

Atlantic Storm Surge & Flooding

Ocean surge and Intracoastal flooding along Boca Raton, Delray Beach, and Palm Beach coastal areas. Water intrusion that isn't documented early gets attributed to pre-existing moisture conditions.

🌀

Structural Wind Pressure

Connection failure and racking on Palm Beach County properties — particularly visible in older Lake Worth and Greenacres construction. Frequently misattributed to settling or earth movement to trigger exclusions.

🪟

Windows, Doors & Hurricane Systems

Impact window seal failure, frame damage, and compromised glazing. Non-compliant openings affect your property's insurance compliance status — and replacements are routinely undervalued by adjusters.

🏊

Pool Enclosures & Outdoor Structures

Screen tears, frame bending, and anchor failure on pool cages, covered patios, and lanais throughout Palm Beach County communities. Replacement costs are consistently lowballed in initial claims.

💧

Mold, HVAC & Electrical Systems

Post-storm mold growth in South Florida's humidity, flood-damaged HVAC systems, and lightning-damaged electrical panels — all legitimate claim items that go undocumented without a dedicated public adjuster.

What Insurance Companies Do

The lowball tactics used on Palm Beach homeowners after every storm.

Rushing inspections within days of a storm event — while hidden damage is not yet visible — and using that premature inspection as the permanent, final basis for your claim payout.
Categorizing Atlantic storm surge and Intracoastal flooding as "flood damage" under a separate flood policy (with its own deductible and limits) rather than a wind-driven storm event covered under your homeowner's policy.
Applying actual cash value depreciation instead of replacement cost on Palm Beach County's aging roofing stock — paying what the old roof is worth, not what a new compliant roof costs to install.
Attributing structural damage in older Lake Worth and Greenacres construction to "settling" or "earth movement" rather than the hurricane-force wind event that actually caused it.
Pressuring homeowners to sign early settlements while displaced and under financial stress — before the full extent of damage, including hidden water intrusion, has been properly assessed.
Denying post-storm mold remediation claims by arguing moisture predates the storm, even when water entry was clearly through storm-created openings in the building envelope.
