Todd Haselhorst, CEO & Founder of StormAdvisor
The Antiquated and Fraud-ridden Industry of Disaster Recovery has a New Hero to Protect and Restore People’s Largest Assets, Todd Haselhorst, CEO and Founder of Storm AdvisorMiami-Dade County resident, visionary entrepreneur, and community builder, Todd Haselhorst, announces his newest venture launched in October of 2021, StormAdvisor™. Throughout his career, he has chosen highly fragmented and antiquated industries where he can apply tech-enabled marketplace solutions and automated processes to reduce fraud, waste, and cost such as Auto Transport Plus sold to NYSE-KAR and CubeMonk, a transportation and labor marketplace for the logistics industry that is currently undergoing a merger.
In November 2020, after Hurricane Sally hit Florida and caused widespread property damage, Todd and his friend Nick created Hercules Construction to support the recovery efforts of people’s homes. They found that contractors were exploiting homeowners by providing poor quality work or sometimes even running off with their money. Haselhorst then began to realize how large and widespread the problems were facing homeowners in need of repairs. He quickly understood that much like in the logistics industry, that homeowners didn’t have the information, experience, and resources necessary to safely and quickly navigate the process of restoring their home.
With Todd’s background in building marketplaces, he creatively and innovatively formed StormAdvisor™ so families could quickly and easily access their network of pre-vetted contractors, insurance adjusters, and restoration experts who could be trusted to restore their biggest asset back to pre-storm conditions, focusing first on Florida and Louisiana.
Part of StormAdvisor’s mission is providing homeowners with a curated network of professionals to assist them throughout the entire process of filing a claim and repairing their home after a major storm. Most people have little to no experience with this lengthy process. Insurance companies, adjusters, and contractors take advantage of this fact—costing families time, money, and sometimes even their home.
Climate change increased the number of destructive storms by 40% over the last 20 years. In 2020 alone, 22 major storms caused over $1B in damage, breaking previous records. As a result, scammers flock to devastated communities to take advantage of these vulnerable homeowners. It’s gotten so bad, states are passing legislation to eliminate the predatory practices of these contractors, but it’s not working
“Our solution is an online marketplace that is hyperfocused on a niche experience overlooked by companies like Angi, HomeAdvisor, and Thumbtack. None of these platforms focus on storm restoration – a dramatically different experience than home improvement,” says CEO & Founder Todd Haselhorst. “StormAdvisor™ is the first company to focus on building software tools and providing unbiased information in this underserved $100 billion dollar market.”
