I had for a 4 point inspection and wind mitigation done. They approved the policy. My house insurance goes through my mortgage holder. So Tower Hill got paid through them, and I cancelled my old insurance carrier. Then after about a month and a half, I get a cancellation notice. They sent their own inspector in and reported a couple shingles were missing and a piece of soffit square was missing and rust on a decorative post on my porch. My roof was over 10 years old, so I quickly got the roof replaced and took care of the other issues as well before the cancellation deadline. They worked with me and not only did they keep the policy from getting cancelled, my premium is now lower because of the new roof.

My experiences with James and Joshua before have been nothing short of amazing. Quick, prompt in follow up , clear on what can be done and most importantly helpful around what I at least needed which was to save some money. Highly recommend !

I just switched my homeowner's insurance through Joshua Gleaton with Cornerstone. I had been with my previous insurer for 32 years. Josh was outstanding to work with. He was responsive, easy to work with and provided me with tremendous savings (Cut my insurance in half). I only wish I had called him years ago.

Kyle Wilson from Cornerstone Insurance was recommended to me for purposes of purchasing home insurance on my new home in Sarasota. As a current New England resident, I was not familiar with many Florida agents and am thankful I was introduced to Kyle. He made the insurance purchase process quick and easy and was extremely attentive - despite me reaching out during the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. For those of you who have resided in the Northeast and "expect" quick, reliable service as well as timely responses to your messages, I highly recommend you contact Kyle. I am also very pleased with the pricing of the insurance and the opportunity to customize the coverage I was seeking.

Jorge B.

Kyle Wilson was extremely helpful with my home insurance request, he will reply to your questions fast, with accuracy and he works on weekends, holidays, day and night. Thanks Kyle for handling my policy!

Kari Tate was a pleasure to work with. I needed to switch over to a new policy and she made the process quick and painless, keeping my premiums low but still retaining similar coverages.

carlos D.

I recently purchased an insurance policy, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, my agent was friendly, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to understand my needs, explained all available options in simple terms, and never once made me feel rushed or pressured.

What stood out the most was how transparent and attentive they were. They answered every question clearly, helped me compare plans, and made sure I fully understood the coverage before making a decision. Their professionalism and genuine care made the entire process stress-free.

Thanks to their guidance, I now have a policy that fits my budget and gives me peace of mind. I truly appreciate their support and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase insurance!

PRAMAH Anti-aging & L.

I cannot say enough great things about my insurance agent, Joshua Gleaton. He stayed late, worked under intense time pressure, and got multiple policies approved so we could close within 24 hours. His responsiveness, professionalism, and knowledge were far beyond anything I’ve experienced in the insurance world.

In a time when it feels like no one goes the extra mile or even does the right thing anymore, Joshua did exactly that — all the way through. He was courteous, patient, and truly committed to making sure everything was done correctly.

If you want someone who actually shows up, communicates, and gets things done when it matters most, Joshua is the person you want. Highly recommended.
