Florida Builders & Insurers Must Evolve with the Weather—Are You Covered?

In Florida, construction and insurance are industries built on adaptation. With increasing storm intensity, unpredictable rainfall, and rising sea levels, builders and insurers alike must continuously evolve to stay ahead of risk.

According to a recent PropertyCasualty360 article, construction firms are adjusting building materials and designs to better withstand extreme weather, while insurers are reevaluating underwriting practices and product offerings to manage growing exposures.

Why This Matters to Coastal Contractors

Florida’s construction professionals—especially those along the Gulf Coast—are feeling the pressure. In neighborhoods like South Tampa, Shore Acres, and Clearwater Beach, frequent flooding and storm damage have increased both physical and financial risk.

If you’re a contractor, artisan, or work in emergency response, the right commercial insurance can make or break your ability to stay in business after a major storm.

That’s where Alexandra Horblitt comes in.
