GB Claims serves the City and Town of Newburgh from our office in Suffern, about forty minutes away via the Thruway. We represent Newburgh homeowners, landlords and business owners against their own insurance companies after fire, water, storm and theft losses.
Newburgh has one of the largest historic districts in New York: block after block of 19th-century brick row houses and multi-family buildings, many of them rentals, alongside mid-century neighborhoods and new construction in the Town. Fires in older multi-family buildings, water losses between units, and roof and masonry damage are the claims we see most — and the ones carriers underpay most.
What a public adjuster actually does for you
Your policy is a contract, and proving what you are owed under it is your responsibility, not the insurer’s. That burden falls on a homeowner at the worst possible moment. We take it over: we document the damage, measure and scope the repairs, prepare the estimate, submit the claim, answer the carrier’s questions, and negotiate the settlement. The insurance company’s adjuster works for the insurance company; we work only for you.
Common Newburgh property claims
- Fires in row houses and multi-family buildings, including smoke damage to adjoining units and buildings.
- Water losses in stacked rental units, where one leak damages several apartments.
- Roof and masonry damage from storms, with water intrusion into brick walls and plaster.
- Frozen and burst pipes in older buildings and vacant units.
- Sewer backups and basement flooding.
- Vandalism, theft and damage to vacant or partially occupied property.
Row houses and shared walls
In a row house, your loss is rarely only yours. Fire, smoke and water cross party walls, and your neighbor’s carrier may owe part of the repair. We document the damage on both sides of the wall, identify every policy that should respond, and keep your own claim moving while the carriers argue about who pays.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover the City of Newburgh and the Town?
Yes. We serve both the City and the Town of Newburgh, New Windsor, Cornwall and the rest of Orange County from our office in Suffern.
I own a rental building. Will insurance pay for lost rent?
If your policy includes loss-of-rents or business-income coverage, yes — for the time it reasonably takes to repair. We document the repair timeline and the rental value so that part of the claim is not shortchanged.
The carrier says the damage was ‘wear and tear.’ What now?
Carriers use ‘wear and tear’ and ‘deterioration’ to deny storm and water damage on older buildings. The question is what actually caused the damage, and that can be shown. We inspect, document the cause, and respond to the denial.
