Why Winter is a Busy Season for NYC Public Adjusters

Think about it for a moment. The Winter months in New York have some of the greatest extremes in temperature and with those sudden drops followed by thaws, there are blizzards, drifting snow, heavy accumulations, ice, and more. These roller coaster weather changes are less than exhilarating and often result in downed trees, collapsed roofs due to accumulated ice and snow, clogged or damaged gutter systems, and frozen and burst pipes. That’s just the start. If undetected, Winter storm damage inside your premises can lead to mold, mildew, and electrical failures, even fire hazards in a few short weeks. Last year, New York State logged the second highest (after North Dakota) amounts in millions of dollars for property damage due to Winter weather issues. If your home or business has sustained any damages or loss this season, give United Public Adjusters & Appraisers a call. Think of us as your public insurance adjuster in NYC and the TriState. We’ll have your back and guide you through the entire claims process to bring about an optimal outcome.

Our team of professionals may be called in at every phase of the claims settlement process. When you contact us at the onset, when you discover your damage, and before you contact your insurer, we can make the entire process run smoothly and save your sanity while ensuring you’ll receive the highest settlement your policy allows. If you have begun the process before getting in touch, that’s not a problem. When you go it alone, you risk being offered inadequate funds to restore your property to its former condition. That’s what usually happens when you trust your insurance company to look out for you. Make no mistake: insurance companies are in business to make a profit. That means offering a lower settlement, expecting naive home and business owners to accept without hesitation. They prey on those who may be displaced from their homes and business locations and desperate to return to normal as quickly as possible. These individuals may erroneously think that the sooner they agree to a settlement, the sooner they can hire contractors and begin getting their homes, businesses, and lives back on track.

As your public insurance adjuster in NYC and vicinity, United Public Adjusters & Appraisers will step in and take over negotiations. Knowledgeable about the construction trades and insurance industry, we will prepare detailed documentation as to the extent of the damage/losses, realistic costs to rebuild, renovate, and/or replace. We truly consider the big picture which includes hidden damages with the potential to reveal themselves months after your settlement check, (which your insurer may have downplayed thereby lowering your entitlement and possibly discredited the value of your residence or commercial property), has been cashed. We will fight for every dollar you are rightfully entitled to, saving you months of stress, protracted negotiations, potential financial shortfalls, and extended reconstruction timelines.

It is true that Winter is a very hectic season for any public insurance adjuster in NYC and the region. However, United Public Adjusters & Appraisers is never too busy to help. We’ll be there when you need us, without any upfront costs. If your premises have been damaged this Winter, we’re the call to make, so we can make things right for you as swiftly and completely as possible.
