About Koenig Public Adjusting

Your advocate after the storm.

Koenig Public Adjusting is an Illinois public adjusting firm focused on helping homeowners navigate exterior storm damage insurance claims. When hail or wind damages your roof, gutters or siding, we handle the claim on your behalf.

The insurance company has its own adjuster looking out for its interests. A public adjuster is licensed to represent you — inspecting the damage, documenting every detail, preparing the claim and negotiating with your insurer.

Founded on years of hands-on experience in construction, manufacturing, sales and retail, we know how homes are built, what repairs really cost, and how to communicate clearly with every party involved.

The Claims Process

Step by step, start to settlement.

Here's exactly what happens when you work with Koenig Public Adjusting.

  1. 01

    Request an inspection

    Fill out the inspection form or call. We'll ask about the storm date, the damage you've noticed and your insurance carrier.

  2. 02

    Free exterior inspection

    We inspect your roof, gutters and siding, photographing and measuring every sign of hail and wind damage.

  3. 03

    Policy review

    We read your homeowners policy with you, explain your coverage and deductible, and tell you honestly whether a claim makes sense.

  4. 04

    Claim preparation & filing

    We build a detailed, documented claim — photos, measurements and a line-item estimate — and handle filing and deadlines.

  5. 05

    Meet the insurance adjuster

    We're on site when the carrier's adjuster inspects, making sure nothing is missed or downplayed.

  6. 06

    Negotiate the settlement

    We negotiate directly with your insurer, file supplements for missed items and push back on low offers.

  7. 07

    Settlement & repairs

    Once the claim is approved, you receive your settlement and move forward with repairs using the contractor you choose.
