What Is an Xactimate Estimate? Insurance Restoration Pricing Explained

February 19, 2025 1 min read Insurance

Xactimate: The Insurance Industry’s Pricing Standard

If you’ve ever had a restoration or insurance claim, you’ve likely heard the term “Xactimate.” It’s the software platform used by virtually every insurance carrier, independent adjuster, and professional restoration company to price property damage repairs.

How Xactimate Works

Xactimate contains a database of every construction trade, material, and activity involved in property repair : from drywall installation to mold remediation to roofing. Prices are updated monthly and vary by geographic region, so a drywall estimate in Sarasota reflects actual SW Florida labor and material costs.

Why It Matters for Your Claim

  • Common language : when your contractor and adjuster both use Xactimate, they’re literally speaking the same pricing language
  • Line-item detail : every activity is separately priced, making it easy to identify missing items
  • Supplement support : when hidden damage is discovered, additional line items are added as “supplements”

WrightWay’s Xactimate Expertise

WrightWay’s estimating team includes certified Xactimate professionals. We prepare estimates in the exact format your adjuster expects, which streamlines approval and reduces back-and-forth delays. This is one of the key advantages of choosing a professional restoration company over a general handyman for insurance-covered work.

Derek Hayes and his crew did a great job rebuilding our bathroom after mold was discovered there when we were selling our house. We were on a tight schedule and he did it within the time frame before closing. Very professional and detail-oriented work.
★★★★★
WrightWay Emergency Services did an outstanding job getting our unit repaired after an air conditioning leak that caused major damage. We could not be there to monitor the work, but Bridgett Barnes, Scott Conley and Fred McKnight kept us informed, and constantly worked with us to ensure us that we would have our unit better than new. A very trustworthy company. Thank you, thank you.
★★★★★
I recommend WrightWay Emergency Services totally. Very impressive how quickly response was. All the people I have been in contact with are super supportive and friendly.
