Why hire a licensed public adjuster in Texas

  • Works for you, not the carrier

    A licensed public adjuster is the only claims professional legally allowed to represent you — the policyholder. Field adjusters and independent adjusters work for the insurance company.

  • Documents losses the carrier takes seriously

    Claims move faster and pay fairer when the paperwork, photos, and scope of loss are prepared the way carriers expect. That's the whole job.

  • Only gets paid if you recover

    Contingency-fee billing means no out-of-pocket cost. The percentage is disclosed in writing upfront and regulated by state law.

  • Handles denials, underpayments, and supplements

    Even a claim you already settled can be reopened. Supplements on missed line items are common — and often substantial.

Representative outcomes

Typical public adjuster results on common claim types in Texas. Actual outcomes depend on policy language, damage, and timing.

$14K → $62KWater damage

Burst supply line, kitchen ceiling collapse

A Fort Worth homeowner came home to a ceiling already on the floor — an upstairs supply line had failed overnight. The carrier's field adjuster scoped cosmetic drywall repair and a fraction of the flooring. Reopening the claim with proper moisture mapping, cabinet box damage documentation, and code-required electrical work moved the settlement from roughly $14K to $62K — enough to replace the full affected floor and bring the home back to pre-loss condition.

Post-storm roof denial reversed

Hail damage

After a TX hail event, a homeowner's carrier denied roof replacement, calling the damage cosmetic. Fresh inspection with calibrated roof-test squares, shingle mat cross-sections, and NOAA storm-data pairing established a supportable replacement case. The denial was reversed and the homeowner received a full roof replacement plus matching gutters and screens.

Reopened claim, corrected scope, better recovery

Reopen & supplement

An initial carrier estimate missed several covered line items. Careful scope review, supporting photographs, and code-required documentation resulted in a supplemental payment materially larger than the original offer — returning the policyholder closer to whole.

Questions people ask

What does a public adjuster actually do?

A licensed public adjuster works for you — the policyholder — not the insurance company. They document your damage, interpret your policy, and negotiate directly with the carrier so you recover the full amount you're owed. Didi handles the paperwork, inspections, and calls so you can focus on getting your life back together.

How does a public adjuster get paid in Texas?

Public adjusters in Texas work on contingency — a percentage of the settlement they recover. There's no upfront cost. If you don't recover, you don't pay. Fee percentages are regulated by state law and disclosed in writing before any work begins.

When is the right time to hire a public adjuster?

The earlier the better. Bringing Didi in before you file (or right after you file) means the damage gets documented properly from the start. But even after a denial, delay, or lowball settlement, a public adjuster can re-open the claim and pursue a supplement — Texas law allows it.

Will hiring a public adjuster slow down my claim?

The opposite, usually. Carriers respond faster when there's a licensed professional managing the paper trail, deadlines, and inspections. Didi knows what documentation the carrier needs and how to move the claim forward without the back-and-forth that stalls most homeowners.

What's the difference between a public adjuster and a field adjuster?

A field adjuster works for the insurance company — they come out to assess damage on the carrier's behalf. A public adjuster works only for you. Same job title — opposite sides of the table.
