I had for a 4 point inspection and wind mitigation done. They approved the policy. My house insurance goes through my mortgage holder. So Tower Hill got paid through them, and I cancelled my old insurance carrier. Then after about a month and a half, I get a cancellation notice. They sent their own inspector in and reported a couple shingles were missing and a piece of soffit square was missing and rust on a decorative post on my porch. My roof was over 10 years old, so I quickly got the roof replaced and took care of the other issues as well before the cancellation deadline. They worked with me and not only did they keep the policy from getting cancelled, my premium is now lower because of the new roof.

Homeowners Insurance Options in Florida

Florida’s homeowners insurance market has evolved significantly — and so has Cornerstone’s carrier lineup. While some older carriers exited the state or stopped writing new policies, a new generation of well-capitalized, Florida-focused insurers has emerged to take their place. We’ve done the vetting so you don’t have to.

Today, Cornerstone represents 15 top-rated carriers actively writing homeowners insurance in Tampa and throughout the surrounding area — giving you more competitive options and the confidence that your carrier has the financial strength to pay claims when it counts.

Tampa homeowners face a distinct combination of risks: Tampa Bay’s coastal exposure, storm surge risk from the bay and gulf, aging housing stock in established neighborhoods like Seminole Heights and Hyde Park, and the region’s hurricane vulnerability. A standard homeowners policy addresses many of these — but flood damage is never covered. We strongly recommend pairing your home policy with a separate flood insurance policy for complete protection. Ask us about bundling your home and auto insurance to save on both.

Frequently Asked Questions About Homeowners Insurance

When shopping for homeowners insurance, Tampa residents often make the mistake of using the purchase price of the home as the basis for the amount of coverage they request. Oftentimes, the purchase price of the home is not the same as its replacement cost. This is especially true if the house was purchased several years ago. As building codes change and inflation pushes up the price of materials and labor, replacement costs tend to become higher than purchase price or even market value. Make sure you are dealing with an agent that understands these differences, and will write you a policy with adequate coverage to replace your dwelling in the event of a total loss.

Also Consider Extended Replacement Cost in Case of Disaster: If a major disaster strikes your area, it is wise to carry extended replacement cost on your homeowner policy to account for a possible spike in material costs to rebuild the home.

The standard homeowners insurance Tampa residents buy does not include flood insurance. So if your dwelling is ever damaged by a flood, you would be responsible to pay the costs directly out of pocket. The good news is that flood protection is now available through multiple options: some homeowners carriers offer a flood endorsement that can be added directly to your home policy, while standalone flood coverage is also available through the NFIP and private flood carriers. Learn more about flood insurance for your home.

Make sure you have high enough individual liability limits in case someone is injured on your property and submits a claim against you. In general, you should have at least enough to match your financial net worth. If net worth exceeds the maximum liability coverage of the homeowners insurance, Tampa residents should consider an umbrella policy to give them the additional liability coverage they need.

Most home insurance policies in Tampa, FL have a 2% hurricane deductible. This means that if your home is insured for $100,000, you would be responsible to pay the first $2,000 out of pocket due to hurricane damage. The higher the deductible, the lower your annual premium, but make sure you can afford to pay that deductible if a hurricane ever does damage to your house.

I just switched my homeowner's insurance through Joshua Gleaton with Cornerstone. I had been with my previous insurer for 32 years. Josh was outstanding to work with. He was responsive, easy to work with and provided me with tremendous savings (Cut my insurance in half). I only wish I had called him years ago.
