What we cover

Built for salt air, storm surge & Saturday sails

Standard policies read like they were written in Ohio. Ours are built for a house that hears the ocean.

Wind-zone-aware HO3 & HO5 policies with roof schedules and named-storm deductibles explained in plain English.

Flood Insurance

NFIP plus six private markets quoted side by side. We read elevation certificates like sheet music.

Agreed-value hull coverage, wreck removal, and haul-out reimbursement when a storm is named.

HO6 walls-in coverage and short-term-rental policies for beach properties that earn their keep.

The 60-second check

Is your home storm-ready?

Answer six questions the way you'd answer a neighbor. Your readiness score updates as you go — no email required.

Do you know your current flood zone (post-2024 FEMA maps)?

Is your roof age documented with your insurer?

Could you state your named-storm deductible in dollars?

Do you have flood coverage (separate from homeowners)?

Is there a photo/video inventory of your contents?

If you own a boat: is there a written haul-out plan?

Storm-ready score

Answer the six questions

Most coastal homeowners score under 60 the first time. That's exactly why this check exists.

I

We walk your property, not just your paperwork

Every new coastal policy starts with a porch visit — roof, elevation, dock, and all.

II

Claims advocacy, in person

After Florence we handled 300+ claims with zero clients left to face an adjuster alone. That's the job.

III

Carriers chosen for how they pay

We only place coastal risk with carriers whose storm-claim record we've seen up close.

"They found a private flood policy $1,900 cheaper than the NFIP quote our bank handed us. Same coverage. Better, actually."
