Large Loss Insurance Restoration from Our Home Base

Insurance restoration in South Hillsborough County demands a contractor who understands both the construction and the claims process. Ruskin, Apollo Beach, and Sun City Center properties face hurricane wind damage, storm surge flooding along Tampa Bay, and the chronic moisture issues that affect buildings throughout the Gulf Coast. When these events produce insurance claims, the quality of initial documentation, the accuracy of cost estimates, and the professionalism of carrier communication directly affect how much of the loss is covered.

Florida Construction Specialists brings a distinctive combination to insurance restoration work: our principal's background spans both the construction and insurance industries, giving us insight into how carriers evaluate claims, what documentation they need, and how to present legitimate damage in the format that facilitates efficient processing. We provide Xactimate estimates, engineering assessments, moisture mapping, and the comprehensive documentation packages that support claims from initial filing through final payment.

Our Ruskin headquarters means we begin the documentation process faster than competitors traveling from Tampa or Sarasota. For Sun City Center's retirement community properties, where storm damage often involves both master association policies and individual unit owner coverage, our local presence and experience with these complex multi-party claims is particularly valuable. All permitting goes through Hillsborough County Building Services.

Florida Construction Specialists specializes in large loss insurance restoration ranging from two hundred fifty thousand to fifty million dollars. We handle the complex, multi-trade restoration projects that require experienced general contracting, in-house engineering assessment, and the bonding capacity that smaller restoration contractors lack. This includes major hurricane damage to commercial properties, multi-building condominium restoration in Sun City Center, waterfront property reconstruction in Apollo Beach, and industrial facility restoration along the I-75 and US 41 corridors.

Our principal's combined construction and insurance industry experience gives us a unique perspective that benefits property owners. We provide Xactimate estimates in the format carriers require, comprehensive damage documentation including moisture mapping and structural assessment reports, and professional communication with adjusters throughout the claims process. We work with all major carriers active in South Hillsborough including Citizens Property Insurance, Universal Insurance, Heritage, and national carriers.

Sun City Center's condominium associations and residential properties represent a significant portion of insurance restoration work in South Hillsborough County. Storm damage to the community's aging building stock often involves both the association's master policy and individual unit owner policies, requiring careful coordination between multiple carriers. We understand these coverage structures and work with both association boards and individual owners to coordinate comprehensive restoration.

When restoration work triggers building code upgrades under Florida's substantial improvement rule, we identify all required upgrades during initial assessment so they can be included in the insurance claim. Hillsborough County requires that buildings damaged beyond fifty percent of their pre-damage value be brought to current code. Many insurance policies include ordinance and law coverage that reimburses code upgrade costs. We document these requirements clearly so property owners can maximize their coverage for these additional expenses.
