A Licensed, Insured General Contractor of Record — Ready to Go On File With Your Claim

Most insurance carriers won’t move a claim forward until there’s a licensed and insured general contractor formally on file for the property. Brunt & Company fills that role directly — for roofing, structural, water, fire, and any other construction-related damage the claim covers — so the paperwork requirement is satisfied and the actual repair work moves at the same time.

Damage & Work Types We Cover

  • Roofing — shingle, tile, and flat/deck roof damage from wind, hail, or storm events.
  • Structural repair — framing, load-bearing, and building-envelope damage.
  • Water damage — from storms, burst pipes, or roof/window failure.
  • Fire damage — reconstruction of affected structures and systems.
  • Any other construction-related repair the claim requires — if it’s part of the property and part of the claim, we can be the GC of record for it.

How It Works

  1. Licensed GC of record — we go on file with your insurance company as the licensed and insured general contractor, satisfying the carrier’s requirement on day one.
  2. Initial site assessment — we walk the property and document damage in the format adjusters expect.
  3. Scope & estimate — a detailed, defensible scope of work built to withstand claim review.
  4. Adjuster / attorney coordination — we communicate directly with your claims team so nothing gets lost in translation.
  5. Rebuild & close-out — full documentation at completion, ready for final claim sign-off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the insurance company need a GC on file?
Most carriers require a licensed and insured general contractor of record before releasing funds or approving repair work — it’s their assurance the rebuild will be done to code by a legitimate, insured business.

Do you work directly with my public adjuster or attorney?
Yes — we coordinate directly and are used to working within the claims process, not around it.

Can you start before the claim is fully approved?
We can go on file as the GC of record and begin assessment and scoping right away; full construction timing depends on your carrier’s approval.

Does this only cover roofing?
No — roofing is one of the most common claim types we handle, but we take on any construction-related damage covered by the claim, not roofing alone.

Documented Work, Start to Finish

Carriers and adjusters want a paper trail. We photograph and document every stage — framing, MEP rough-in, and finishes — so the scope that was approved is the scope that gets built.

A Roof Claim, Documented Start to Finish

Roofing is the most common claim we take on. Carriers want the work photographed at every stage — tear-off, dry-in, and final — and that documentation is what gets a claim approved and closed without argument.
