The carrier denied major water damage costs and refused to pay the full scope. Blueprint Claims documented the loss, reopened the file, and pushed the claim to settlement.

How it works
What You Do in the First 48 Hours Can Affect the Entire Claim.
Water damage moves fast. Behind walls, under floors, into subfloors and framing. Before anyone tears out flooring, removes cabinets, or gives a recorded statement, the damage needs to be documented correctly. A public adjuster documents what gets missed and challenges low or denied estimates.
The 4-step process
Step 01
Call Us. Tell Us What Happened.
A pipe burst, an appliance leaked, a slab line failed. Whatever caused the water damage, tell us about it. Free, no obligation, no commitment.
Step 02
We Review Your Claim and Policy.
We assess the damage, review your policy, and determine whether the insurance company's position can be challenged. Cause of loss, scope, and what they missed.
Step 03
We Document and Negotiate.
Full property inspection with moisture detection, professional estimates for mitigation, tear-out, dry-out, rebuild, and contents. Direct negotiation with the carrier.
Step 04
Claim Resolved. You Get Paid.
Your claim resolves and you receive funds for repairs. We can also refer you to qualified, licensed contractors if you need one.

After trying to handle the claim myself for almost 2 years, I came across these guys. Honestly, I wish I would have reached out to them from day one.

Common Questions
Property Owners Ask About Water Damage Claims
Whether your water damage claim was denied, your settlement was too low, or you just had a pipe burst and don't know where to start, these FAQs cover what you need to know about hiring a public adjuster for your water damage claim.
Yes. What you say in the first 48 hours can affect what your claim is worth. A licensed public adjuster helps you document the full scope of damage before any statement gets made to the insurance company, before a mitigation crew tears things out, and before the insurance adjuster writes their estimate. The consultation is free and there is no obligation to hire us.
Stick to the facts: when the damage happened and what was affected. Do not guess the cause of the leak. If you do not know whether the leak was sudden, gradual, recent, or ongoing, say you do not know. Stick to what you personally observed. Do not speculate about the age or condition of pipes, appliances, or fixtures. Never sign anything without reading it. If you are already working with a public adjuster, the insurance adjuster should contact them directly. Call us before the insurance adjuster arrives so we can be with you during the inspection.
Usually yes, if the damage was caused by a sudden, accidental event like a burst pipe, supply line failure, or appliance malfunction. Insurance companies often try to classify the leak as 'gradual' or 'maintenance-related' to deny the claim. A public adjuster documents the actual cause of loss and challenges that position.
Nothing upfront. We work on contingency, which means we only get paid when you get paid, and only a percentage of what we recover. No hourly rates, no retainer, no hidden fees.
Yes. 'Maintenance' and 'gradual leak' are the most common reasons insurance companies deny water damage claims, and they are also the most commonly challenged. A public adjuster documents the real cause of loss (sudden pipe failure, supply line break, etc.) and builds a case with professional evidence that contradicts the carrier's position.
You do not have to accept their number. Low estimates often miss hidden moisture damage behind walls, under floors, and in subfloors. A public adjuster documents what was missed using professional equipment and negotiates for the full amount supported by the damage, policy, and documentation.
