Senior Public Adjuster & CEO
Cord personally participates in every Laredo case. He handles inspections, verifies and documents the damage, and oversees the preparation of the supported repair estimate. For large warehouse and commercial claims, that means direct involvement from the senior adjuster responsible for evaluating the loss.
Together, Martha and Cord provide personal support and representation for Laredo property owners, with assistance available in English and Spanish.
Our work in Laredo began in 2014, helping commercial warehouse owners and residents following a major storm. We have continued serving the community for many years. Local public adjusters support our Laredo clients, with additional experts brought in as needed.
A payment that does not appear to cover the repairs can leave a property owner unsure what to do next. Bring us the concern: a roof repair allowance, water damage missing from an estimate, fire damage, a denial or a delayed response.
We begin with the property and the available evidence. We inspect the relevant damage, take photographs and measurements, identify materials and prepare a supported repair estimate using Xactimate, an industry-standard estimating platform. The claim must account for the actual property and documented damage; the difference between two estimate totals is not automatically money owed.
For a commercial property, organize the records by building, unit or affected area. Identify the owner or authorized contact, access arrangements, and any cleanup or protective work already performed. Keep the insurer’s estimates, payment letters, photographs and contractor records together.
See our commercial property claim guide and prepare your claim documents.
We examine the damaged materials, measurements, surrounding components and proposed repair method. Repairability depends on the actual roof and applicable manufacturer instructions. Read our explanation of roof repairs, broken seals and warranties.
We develop our own documented estimate from the actual damage. Your contractor can explain construction details; as your licensed public adjuster, we represent you in negotiating the supported claim. Understand estimate differences and the contractor’s role.
Keep the cleanup invoice, photographs and any drying records. We review remaining damage and work already included or paid so the claim does not request payment twice for the same work. Review repairs after water cleanup.
Save photographs, emergency-work invoices and records identifying affected rooms and materials. Tell us what has been removed or cleaned so we can assess what evidence is still available. Explore fire and smoke claim help.
Share the written decision, claim timeline and available damage records. We can review the concern and explain whether public adjusting fits your situation. Coverage and deadlines depend on the policy and facts. See denial and delay next steps.
Our team speaks Spanish. We can help with initial questions, inspection arrangements and claim discussions in either language. We serve Laredo and all of Texas; this page describes a service area, not a separate Laredo office.
We do not assume every claim is underpaid. If the available information supports the insurance company’s payment, we will explain that finding at no cost. If we identify a documented concern, we explain what work may be needed next.
If you retain us, our fee is 10% of new money received, with no fee on prior payments and no additional expenses. If no new money is received, no fee is due. Representation begins through a written agreement.

These photographs from our inspection archive show roof details, building interiors and rooftop equipment. Dates identify the capture dates recorded in the files, not storm dates. The images illustrate observed conditions; photographs alone do not determine cause or coverage.
A wide inspection view records the metal panels, rows of fasteners, rooftop equipment and areas of white coating. It gives context for the close-up observations.

This close-up shows exposed fasteners and cracking in the white material around them and along a panel joint. We record the condition of each component rather than treating the roof as a single surface.

A translucent roof panel sits within the metal roof. The photograph records its edges, fasteners and surrounding sealant or coating as part of the inspection.

The interior view shows tears and openings in the insulation facing, with insulation exposed in several areas. Interior observations help identify locations that need closer examination above.

An underside view records metal framing, projecting fasteners and exposed insulation. Close-up documentation preserves details that a rooftop overview cannot show.

This rooftop air-conditioning unit has visibly distorted coil fins. We document equipment condition separately from the roof covering; the cause and repair needs require the full inspection record.

A manufacturer’s roof warranty and a property insurance policy are different agreements. A storm-related repair may fall outside a manufacturer’s warranty. That does not automatically void the entire warranty, prove storm damage, or establish that an insurer owes for replacement. The issued warranty, any riders, the insurance policy and the documented damage must be reviewed separately.
A manufacturer’s warranty exclusion is not an insurance cosmetic-damage exclusion. TDI explains that some home policies exclude damage affecting a metal roof’s appearance while it still functions. Read TDI’s metal-roof insurance guidance.
TDI’s historical residential forms HO-145 and TDP-022 distinguish appearance changes from hail damage allowing water penetration or impairing the roof’s ability to keep out the elements over time. These are specific residential forms, not a universal definition for commercial warehouse policies. Read TDI Bulletin B-0030-98 and its endorsement language.
For a leaking warehouse roof, we examine the applicable endorsement and evidence of damage to seams, connections, membranes and other relevant components. Neither a dent nor a leak alone establishes the cause or coverage. We document why the observed condition matters to the proposed repair.
Keep the issued roof warranty and riders, roof specifications, maintenance and repair records, insurance policy and endorsements, the insurer’s written explanation, and available photographs and leak history. Manufacturer notice deadlines and repair-approval requirements may apply; check the actual warranty promptly.
