PMP Certified | OSHA Authorized | Insurance Adjuster Licensed
Protecting Owners Through Every Phase Of Construction
We help property owners take control of the construction process by managing contractors, reviewing costs, tracking progress, and protecting their interests from start to finish.
Most property owners don't have a contractor problem.
They have a protection problem.

Advocate - Adjuster - Project Manager
We manage the entire process so you don't have to:
Validate your insurance scope against actual damage
Vet contractors and review every proposal
Monitor construction quality at every milestone
Review and push back on change orders
Track your settlement funds through closeout
Not advice. Not theory.
Active oversight on your behalf.
What's behind the way we work
Everything we do is built on one principle:
The contractor works for the contractor.
The insurance company works for the insurance company.
We work for you.
This is where most owners get hurt.
They sign contracts without understanding the scope.
They approve change orders without knowing if they're valid.
They release final payment before the work is actually done.

Scope & Risk Review
Before you sign a contractor agreement or approve a change order, we review the documents, pricing, scope, and risk areas — and give you a clear written summary of what we found. One engagement.
No ongoing commitment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
Q: What's the difference between you and a public adjuster?
A public adjuster fights to maximize your insurance settlement. We take over after the settlement — making sure the money gets spent correctly and the construction is done right.
Q: Do you work with the contractor or against them?
Neither. We work exclusively for the property owner. We hold contractors accountable to their scope and pricing without creating unnecessary conflict.
Q: What size projects do you work with?
We focus on insurance-related losses and construction projects in the $150,000–$350,000 range — large enough to justify professional oversight, small enough that most owners are managing it alone.
Q: When should I bring you in?
Before you sign anything. The earlier we're involved, the more we can protect. That said, we can step in at any phase — even if construction has already started.
Q: What does a Claim & Scope Review include?
A review of your insurance estimate, contractor proposal, scope gaps, change order exposure, and allowances — delivered as a written findings report with a follow-up call to walk you through it.
Q: Do you work outside Austin?
We serve Austin and cover the greater Central Texas market including Round Rock, Cedar Park, Georgetown, San Marcos, San Antonio, and more.
