In the state of Florida, one of the worst pieces of news that you can hear about your home or property is that their may be signs of sinkhole activity showing. Luckily many individuals have some form of sinkhole coverage or sinkhole insurance that makes it possible that they do not have to deal with something like this alone. But many people are shocked to know that their insurance company doesn’t perform their own drill services. Brooksville residents will often have their sinkhole investigations performed by a geotechnical drilling professional instead, leaving many individuals to wonder how common are sinkhole investigations for an established drilling company?

Insurance Companies do Not have the Skills or Equipment Needed to Perform Investigations

Most people wrongly assume that because they have sinkhole insurance, that a representative of the insurance company is going to be performing their sinkhole investigations, but this is rarely the case. Because an insurance company does not have the equipment needed to perform accurate sinkhole investigations, they often contract a geotechnical drilling company and their drill services. Brooksville environmental drilling companies often have to drill on a property that might have a sinkhole, and collect physical evidence of the soil and sediments below.

Why do Insurance Companies Contract Drilling Professionals?

Apart from not having the skills needed to effectively perform their own sinkhole investigations, the investigation process is still important to insurance companies because sinkhole activity is not always a guarantee that there is a crevice or cavity below someone’s lawn. With the information gathered by a geotechnical drilling company and their sinkhole investigative drill services, Brooksville residents may find out that there is no sinkhole on their property. An insurance company is not going to want to spend money for a client that does not actually have a sinkhole on their property.
