Lightning Damage
NEW, UNDERPAID OR DENIED CLAIM?
Why Lightning Damage Matters
Lightning strikes are more than dramatic—they can cause extensive damage to both residential and commercial properties. A lightning bolt can deliver tens of thousands of volts, strike plumbing or wiring, travel through metal and electronics, and trigger fires, structural damage or catastrophic equipment failure.
What We Cover
Whether your property has suffered a direct strike or damage from nearby electrical surge, we handle:
Fire or melted wiring caused by lightning entry into the structure.
Electrical system damage — panels, breakers, service entrances, wiring, surge damage to appliances, electronics, HVAC equipment.
Structural impacts — shock waves, fracturing of masonry or concrete, roof damage, impulse damage to building envelope.
Secondary damage — plumbing failure, water intrusion, equipment failure, business interruption resulting from the event.
Our Lightning Damage Claims Process
Policy Review – We analyze your insurance coverage to identify the extent of your rights under lightning and electrical‐damage perils.
Damage Investigation & Documentation – Our team conducts a comprehensive inspection: interior, exterior, wiring, electronics, mechanical systems, structure. We gather photographs, expert reports if needed, weather/strike data and prepare a detailed scope and estimate.
Claim Preparation – We compile a full claims package: itemized estimates, photographic documentation, expert input, cause-of-loss delineation, loss of use/business interruption where applicable.
Negotiation – We engage the insurance carrier on your behalf to ensure that lightning‐related losses are properly acknowledged and compensated — not just immediate fire damage, but all consequential damage.
Settlement & Closure – Our goal is maximum recovery. We work until the full merited settlement under your policy is achieved and your property is restored or your business appropriately compensated.

Things to Keep in Mind
Lightning damage isn’t always obvious. A power surge can silently destroy electronics and wiring, only showing up later as malfunction or failure.
Do not delay reporting the loss. Documentation, weather/strike data and expert inspection are key.
Make sure to preserve all affected items, photographs, damaged wiring/panels and maintain safe conditions.
Hidden damage may manifest weeks or months after the strike — we can assist with supplemental claims if this occurs.
Your policy language matters: “named perils” vs. “all-risk,” exclusions for off-site surges or devices — we’ll help interpret.
