Jeffrey HeiserTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Crestview was an absolute pleasure to work with. We got a call from a long term commercial tenant at 6am the morning after Hurricane IDA saying there is 4 ft of water filling up the space and that they were doing a walk through that day to sell their business. Crestview got their contractors over right away . We were able to prevent a lot of damage due to their quick response. Once onsite, they assessed all of the damage, we discussed rebuild plans and there was little for me to do as a landlord other than cash a check. Josh's assessments' were accurate and he was easy to communicate with. They also took a holistic approach to maximize my payout and even got the physical payment expedited so we can begin the rebuild. I would definitely use them again.![]()

A tree fell on my house and knocked the chimney through my roof. I told my friend how hard it was dealing with the insurance company. He told me to call Crestview Public Adjusters and I am so happy I did. They handled everything for me with the insurance company and even helped me find a contractor to do the repairs. I couldn't be happier that I used them. I'd give them 6 stars if I could. Give them a call for all your insurance claim needs. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.![]()

Frequently Asked Questions About Public Adjusters
A public adjuster is a licensed professional who represents you, the policyholder, not the insurance company. We inspect the damage, review your policy, prepare a detailed claim, and negotiate with your insurer so you receive the full settlement you're owed.
Crestview works on contingency. There are no upfront fees, and our fee is a percentage of the settlement we recover for you. If we don't recover anything, you owe nothing. Some states set limits on public adjuster fees, and we follow all state regulations.
The best time is right after the damage, before you give the insurer statements or accept an estimate. We can also step in if your claim is delayed, underpaid or denied.
Yes. Many clients call us after filing, when the insurer's offer seems too low or the process has stalled. We can review your claim at any stage and reopen or re-argue it where the policy allows.
An insurance adjuster works for the insurance company and protects its interests. A public adjuster works only for you and fights to maximize your payout.
It depends on the size and type of loss. Smaller claims can settle in a few weeks, while large commercial or fire losses take longer. A public adjuster often speeds things up by submitting a complete, well-documented claim from the start.
