Client Testimonials

“I want to compliment another member of your team: Tommy! He is stellar and wrote one of my staff members the nicest e-mails about her soon to be newborn baby. Watkins is truly an answered prayer for me as an administrator.” — A.R.
“I have used Watkins for my car and home insurance for years! Though I have had several different agents through the years (and sometimes didn't know I had been reassigned), I have always received rapid responses, great quotes for insurance and the kind of support I need (email me copies of insurance cards, submit info before house closings, etc.) I am particularly pleased with the service the past few years from Amy Wilkie and Mike Budnovich. They are on it!! Thank you for keeping my homes and vehicles insured at reasonable rates and for answering all of my questions! Highly recommended!” — D.G.
“This is where a homeowner should buy their homeowners and auto policies. The service is superb and they actually represent you. In many popular companies that sell direct, your representative works for the company and not for you.

This is the difference between a company direct and an independent agency. You really find out the difference when you have a claim.

Another benefit is that my policy contains a mechanical breakdown clause therefore, I don't need a separate homeowner protection plan. This is huge. I had to replace my HVAC system and it only cost me $500. Does your company have that? I doubt it.” — J.S.
“Have been a customer since 2009 and couldn't be happier with their service! From day one they have been prompt in responding, always a available, answering all my questions and have flawless handling of any claims. Recently referred them to a family member starting her own business and she also said they are the best and she will be using Watkins Insurance!! Thank you for being so awesome!!” — K.P
