Of all the people I know in this area, only 2 have been happy with their insurance company. As an example, my parents, whose home is technically unliveable (no walls or floors, and we won't even talk about furniture), were offered a ridiculously low sum in compensation. After much argument with the adjuster, then taking their complaints higher within the company, the result was that the adjuster was astounded that it was salt water that flooded their home, and of course that makes a difference! Jeepers, with no roof damage in a home 2 blocks from Galveston Bay, what kind of water did he think it was? From a fresh water aquarium, maybe? They're still arguing their claim 3-1/2 months down the road. It's just ridiculous.
