Local facts that shape property risk.
Storm documentation gaps
Carriers lean on wear and cosmetic arguments; storm-created damage still must be isolated with photos, moisture readings, and repair history.
Water intrusion paths
Roof leaks meeting plumbing or condensate failures cascade quickly — document the path early.
Condo / HOA & commercial
Master vs. unit allocation and commercial BI questions hide underpayment when documentation is incomplete.
What hits Butte properties
The losses we document most often.
Hail & severe thunderstorms
Hail cores across Silver Bow County bruise shingles, crack tiles, dent soft metals, and open leak paths carriers call cosmetic.
Straight-line wind & storms
Severe wind lifts coverings, fails flashings, and starts water paths — especially on aging roof stock.
Water intrusion & plumbing
Roof leaks meeting condensate or supply-line failures cascade through homes and rentals — document early.
Commercial, retail & multifamily
Retail, warehouses, and apartments take large open spans — scopes grow when decking, HVAC, and BI enter the file.

Questions people ask before hiring.

Text an adjusterHow long does an insurer have to decide my claim in Montana?
Under Mont. Code Ann. § 33-18-232, an insurer must pay or deny a claim within 30 days after receiving proof of loss, or 60 days if it makes a reasonable request for more information, unless it notifies you of the reasons. Late payments carry interest at 10% a year. Educational orientation — not legal advice.
What does a public adjuster review cost in Montana?
The claim review is free. If we take your claim, fees and services are explained in a written agreement before representation. We work under published Montana license 3004204499 and confirm current status before engagement.
My HOA or condo has a master-policy claim — do I still need my own?
Often yes. Master-policy repairs may cover common elements while your unit interior or improvements still sit on an HO-6 or homeowners form. We help sort association vs. unit documentation.
Can you help with hail, wind, or wildfire claims in Butte?
Yes. Montana hail, wind, and wildfire or smoke claims need full scopes. Bring photos, the estimate, and your declarations page.
Can you help after I have already been paid?
Underpaid and partially paid claims are a core part of our work. Bring the estimate, payment breakdown, denial or partial-payment letter, photos, and policy. A review does not guarantee an additional check.
