Some of our Carriers







Who we are
The same team, every renewal.
Coastal Shield Insurance is an independent agency in Wilmington, family-owned and licensed in North Carolina. We insure households up and down the coast.
Because we are independent, we can quote your home, auto, and flood coverage with more than twenty A-rated carriers, then walk you through what each one would pay for.
We explain every coverage before you buy it, and we look at your policies again each year, because roofs age and rebuild costs move. The policy that fit at closing may not be the right one now.

What we insure
Coverage for what you’ve built
Home Insurance
Primary homes and beach houses. Wind and hurricane coverage gets priced separately on the coast, and we quote that piece line by line.
Auto Insurance
Coverage for North Carolina drivers. The state minimum rose to 50/100/50 in 2025, and it is on your declarations page whether anyone explained it.
Flood Insurance
Rising water is excluded from standard homeowners policies, so we price flood separately, through the federal program and the private market.
Hurricane Insurance
An extra layer over everything you own, inexpensive peace of mind for families with real assets.
Umbrella Insurance
A second layer of liability sitting over your home, autos, and boat. Ask us what a million dollars of it would run.
Business Insurance
Property, liability, and income coverage for the businesses we already insure at home.
Boat Insurance
Center consoles and cruisers, in a slip or on a trailer, written on a marine policy with agreed value where it fits.
Jewelry Insurance
Scheduled coverage for jewelry, art, and collectibles is insured at full value, not policy caps.
