Insurance Appraisal & Umpire Services in Westerville, Ohio

When the amount of a property loss is in dispute, Ironclad Assessment Group helps Westerville owners get to the right number — what the damage actually costs to repair, determined under your policy's appraisal clause and documented to hold up. Independent, disinterested appraisal and umpire work only; we don't adjust or negotiate the claim.

Appraisal in Westerville


Westerville blends a historic core with decades of newer residential growth on the northeast side of the Columbus metro, giving it a wide mix of home ages and styles.

That mix means losses vary widely — from older roofs and finishes to newer subdivisions — and in each case a wind, hail, water, or storm claim can leave a gap between a carrier's estimate and the actual cost to repair. The appraisal clause in most property policies resolves that disagreement over the amount of the loss, not whether it is covered. Each side appoints a competent and disinterested appraiser; if the two disagree, a neutral umpire resolves the difference, and an award agreed to by any two of the three is binding.

Why Westerville owners call Ironclad

The right number — and the proof to defend it.

Local to central Ohio

Serving Westerville directly — familiar with its mix of older and newer homes and the region's wind, hail, and storm-season losses.

Appraisal, not adjusting

We determine the amount of loss. We are not a public adjuster and do not negotiate, interpret policy language, or settle claims on your behalf.

Independent & disinterested

Our compensation is a retainer plus an hourly rate with a written cap — never a contingency tied to the award. We have no financial stake in the number.

How it works


Engagement  →  Confirm appraisal invocation  →  Neutral evidence intake  →  Independent valuation  →  Itemized award (umpire if needed).

Fees are a retainer plus an hourly rate with a maximum cap agreed in writing — never a contingency. If an umpire is required, you pay one-half of the umpire's fee directly. See the full process →
