GB Claims is a licensed public adjusting firm serving homeowners, landlords, and business owners across Connecticut – from Stamford and Greenwich through Fairfield and New Haven counties to Hartford and beyond. We represent you against your own insurance company after fire, water, storm, flood, and theft losses. We work only for the policyholder, never the insurance company, and we take no kickbacks from contractors or mitigation companies. Our home base is in Suffern, New York, and we travel to every loss we handle.
One thing before anything else: call us before you file the claim. You can call us after too – but it makes a real difference whether we file it for you or it goes in without us. Filing it the wrong way is a common mistake that costs real money. Get us in first and it gets filed correctly.
What a Connecticut public adjuster does for you
Your policy is a contract, and proving what you are owed under it is your burden, not the insurer’s. The company sends its own adjuster to protect its side. A public adjuster is the licensed professional on yours: we inspect and document the damage, prepare the estimate, handle the paperwork and the carrier’s questions, and negotiate the settlement. Most policyholders find a claim takes over their lives for months. We take it over instead.
Claims we handle across Connecticut
- Burst pipes and water damage – freeze breaks, supply lines, hidden leaks behind walls
- House fire and smoke damage – structure, contents, and additional living expenses
- Storm, wind, and roof damage – nor’easters, ice dams, and coastal storms
- Flood damage – including NFIP and private flood policies, coastal and inland
- Theft and vandalism – including claims the carrier questions or slow-walks
- Commercial property claims – buildings, inventory, and business interruption
- Denied and underpaid claims – we reopen, supplement, and fight for what the policy owes
Where we work in Connecticut
We handle claims throughout Fairfield County, New Haven County, and Stamford, and we travel statewide. Distance is not an issue – we travel to the loss, and much of the claim work happens by phone and email.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a public adjuster cost in Connecticut?
GB Claims charges no upfront fee. We are paid a percentage of the settlement we recover for you, so if there is no recovery, there is no fee. The initial claim review is free – you will know quickly whether the claim is worth pursuing.
Should I call a public adjuster before I file my claim?
Yes – that is the single best time to call. How the claim is first presented shapes everything after it. We file it correctly from day one, document the damage the right way, and keep the carrier from framing the loss in a way that shrinks your settlement.
Can you help if my Connecticut claim was already denied or underpaid?
Often, yes. We review the denial or the low offer, re-document the loss, and pursue supplements, the policy’s appraisal clause, or other remedies. A denial is frequently the start of the negotiation, not the end.
