Our services

Three ways we help. Start with where your claim stands.

Most homeowners don’t know which one they need, and they shouldn’t have to. Tell us where your claim stands and we’ll point you to the right one.

A different situation: the appraisers can’t agree

For appraisal panels, insurers and policyholders

Umpire services — a neutral decision when appraisers can’t agree.

When the two appraisers deadlock, we serve as the neutral third party, only on claims where we have no other role.

How it works

Four steps from damage to resolution.

You’ll always know what’s happening, what’s next, and who’s handling it.

Start step one
  1. Free claim review

    Call us, or email your photos and insurer letters to appraisalintake@3pointadjusting.com. We read your policy and tell you plainly whether we can help — and which service fits. Once your claim is open, you can follow it in our online portal.

  2. Document everything

    Roof, exterior, interior, contents and code upgrades. We build a detailed, line-item estimate backed by photos and measurements.

  3. Negotiate — or appraise

    Which one depends on the service you hired us for. We never take more than one role on the same claim.

    As your public adjusterWe handle the back-and-forth with your insurer.
    As the appraiser you appointWe independently document the loss and present a well-supported estimate to the panel.
  4. Resolution & payment

    We walk through the final offer or award with you before anything is signed, then follow the payment through.

Where do you work?

Our office is in Fort Worth, Texas. Public adjusting is available nationwide in states where we hold a public adjuster license, including Texas, where we are licensed by the Texas Department of Insurance. Ask whether we are licensed in your state. Appraisal and umpire services are available across the United States. Not sure whether we can help with your claim? Call us and we’ll tell you plainly.

What does a public adjuster do?

A licensed public adjuster works for you, not the insurance company. We inspect and document the loss, prepare a detailed estimate, handle the paperwork and deadlines, and negotiate the settlement with your insurer on your behalf. Public adjusting is available in states where we hold a public adjuster license, including Texas; ask whether we are licensed in your state.

What is appraisal, and when does it fit?

Many property policies include an appraisal clause for disputes about the amount of a covered loss. Each side names an appraiser, and an umpire settles what they can’t agree on. It is less expensive than a lawsuit, but it doesn’t decide whether something is covered.

Why won’t you take more than one role on my claim?

Because a public adjuster is on the policyholder’s side, while an appraiser and an umpire must be impartial for appraisal to work. We offer public adjusting, appraisal and umpire services as separate engagements, but we never take more than one role on the same claim. If we’re your public adjuster and the claim goes to appraisal, we’ll help you find an independent appraiser and, if needed, an independent umpire.

How will I know what’s happening with my claim?

You can check where your claim stands in our online portal at any time, and you’ll get automatic text and email updates every time its status changes. Inspection appointments are confirmed by text, with reminders before each visit, so you’re not left wondering or chasing us for news.

My claim was denied or already paid. Is it too late?

Often not. Claims can frequently be reopened or supplemented, but policies and the law that applies can set deadlines — so call us, or email your insurer’s letters to appraisalintake@3pointadjusting.com, as soon as you can and we’ll tell you where you stand.

Do I still talk to my insurance company?

You can, and every decision stays yours. Once you hire us as your public adjuster, we handle the day-to-day communication so nothing gets lost or taken out of context. Public adjusting is available in states where we hold a public adjuster license, including Texas; ask whether we are licensed in your state.
