Family First is so kind. My moms house was destroyed by a pipe burst. 2 days later we came home and found it. The Owner came out and saw the damage and made a call. 30 minutes later a crew showed up to help out. 3 hours later I noticed the Owner was down there working also. Couldn't believe it. He called his plumbers to fix to the 3 broken pipes and then they dried the home. The following week his crews put our home back together in less that 2 weeks without stopping, very impressed. He showed up every day to check on us and see if we needed anything. In the end a disaster was made easy. Thank you so much Family First and Martin Russo for helping us!!

Our house caught on fire at 2 am. Family first was there at 3 am working with the fire dept. I was so greatful how they did everything to save our stuff, pictures and memories. I want to say thank you to the 4 crews that stayed for 27 hours straight, cleaning up our home and endless trips pacing our stuff and saving everything they could, even calling a content restoration service for our antique furniture. They put our home back together in 3 months but it was like it never happened. Im glad there are companies out there like you guys!! Very Blessed to meet you.

I just wanted to thank Family First for helping us out in the time of need. The owner showed up to walk us thru the damage to the home that was so extensive we didn't now where to begin. The same day he had 2 crews show up at 6pm at night. Robert and Milos were very helpful and sensitive to my wife's concerns and fears. After 2 days of Mold clean up we were able to come back home and see our house. It was clean and spotless. Beds made and cleaned, property boxed and sealed, Kitchen washed. I can go on and on. I just want to thank the team and staff for making this disaster as easy as possible and treating our home so well. I definitely would recommend them to anyone.

Many Florida homeowners worry: “Will my premium go up if I file a claim?” The answer is no — not if it’s a valid claim. Florida statutes are designed to protect homeowners from unfair insurance practices.
Your insurance company cannot raise your premium or cancel your policy for filing a valid claim.
Premiums can only be increased based on overall statewide risk factors approved by regulators — not because you used your coverage.
Homeowners have the right to use their policy benefits when damage occurs without fear of retaliation from their carrier.
In other words: if the damage is real, your claim is valid, and your coverage applies — you are protected by law.
