Earthquake In Gulf of Mexico: Review Your Florida Property Insurance

An unusual event took place yesterday, May 6, 2018, when an earthquake hit in the Gulf of Mexico. Since the earthquake was kind enough to hit in the water and not on land, no damages were reported. However, dozens of people reported feeling vibrations from the quake as of Sunday evening, their locations spanning from southern Louisiana into Mississippi, Florida, and Texas, according to USGS online data.

In an earlier blog post, Noble Public Adjusting Group discussed the Deadly Spring Season in Florida. That season has arrived. An unusual event like the earthquake that hit the Gulf of Mexico may be an early sign of strange things to come. What we would like to ask our readers before Florida gets hit by its first hurricane, is this: Is your Florida property insurance policy up-to-date? Are you sure you are covered for any possible extreme weather event?

What we haven’t yet discussed is what is covered by a standard Florida commercial property insurance policy. We would be remiss if we didn’t include that in the wealth of information you can find on the Noble blog, so we have included that information below:

Before we go into what a standard Florida commercial property insurance policy covers, we want our blog readers to know we also offer a free review of that type of insurance policy also. If you own commercial property, you can either call us at the number above or fill out this form requesting a free, verbal inspection of your Florida commercial property and a free review of your insurance policy.

Since a Florida commercial property insurance policy is long, detailed and in-depth, we will refer you to the best resource for what all is covered. That resource is this page of the Florida Chief Financial Officer Consumer Service’s website. There is everything you need to know about a standard Florida commercial property insurance policy included in that overview. However, if you would just like to skip that step and have a Florida public adjuster sit down and go over your policy for free, give us a call.

Noble Public Adjusting Group’s main office is in Panama City Beach, but we handle insurance claims and help homeowners and commercial property owners all across Florida, in Georgia and in Texas. If you have a claim anywhere else in the US, as the #1 insurance appraiser in the nation, we can take on your insurance claim as well.
