America 250: Building America, Protecting Your Business
Happy Independence Month from Hillis Adjustment Agency. As America marks 250 years, we recognize the tradespeople, builders, craftspeople, and entrepreneurs who helped build the country. Contractors continue that tradition every day. Insurance underpayments, however, can create challenges that have nothing to do with craftsmanship.
Your Work Deserves Proper Compensation
- Estimates may not reflect the full repair scope.
- Necessary repairs may be omitted.
- Supplements can become disputes.
- Clients may not understand what their insurance covers.
How Hillis Helps Contractors
When you refer a customer to Hillis, we work to:
- Document the full scope of damage.
- Support contractor estimates.
- Identify hidden damage.
- Negotiate with insurance carriers.
- Help the project reflect covered damage under the policy.
Benefits of a Coordinated Claim
Clear documentation and communication can support better-funded projects, fewer payment disputes, stronger customer and contractor relationships, and future referrals. These are goals of the process, not guaranteed outcomes.
Summer Storm Season
Summer storms can create wind, hail, water, and other property losses. Hillis can help property owners navigate the claim while contractors stay focused on repairs. Results depend on the policy and facts of each claim.
- Roofers
- Mitigation companies
- Plumbers
- Electricians
- General contractors
- Restoration specialists
Strong Partnerships Lead to Better Outcomes
When contractors and public adjusters work together, homeowners can gain a clearer understanding of the damage and repair process. Our goal is to help property owners navigate the claim while identifying and documenting covered damage and supporting the contractor's estimate.
Preferred Contractor Partners
The issue invited contractors to learn about becoming trusted Hillis partners and described Hillis's network as a way to strengthen relationships and support property restoration.
The Hillis Advantage Podcast
