ERIC GARMON

Eric brings a unique blend of construction experience, investigative expertise, and legal acumen to Statewide. Born into a family of builders, he grew up working on jobsites for projects ranging from commercial construction to government installations, including military bases, schools, and other critical infrastructure. This family legacy instilled in Eric a deep respect for craftsmanship and a keen eye for quality, which he carries into every project we undertake.
Eric proudly served in the United States Marine Corps and is a disabled veteran. Upon completion of his service, he joined the police force as a Traffic Homicide Investigator. Investigating complex cases taught him precision, problem-solving, and the importance of clear communication—skills he now uses to manage projects, navigate regulations, and advocate for our clients.
As a licensed Florida attorney with nearly a decade of experience in insurance litigation, Eric has worked on both sides of property loss claims, securing fair outcomes for homeowners and defending against disputes. His depth of knowledge enables Statewide to apply meticulous scrutiny to every project, protecting our clients’ interests and streamlining insurance claims. Additionally, Eric has worked as a Florida Mold Assessor, All Lines Adjuster, and Property Loss Appraiser. This combination of legal and real-world experience helps Eric guide the team to assess damage, estimate repairs accurately, and deliver results that meet the highest standards.
Eric’s passion for the industry is deeply personal. On October 10, 2018, Hurricane Michael, a category-five hurricane, brought mass destruction to his community, devastating businesses and homes, including his own business and home. Showing no mercy for those in its path, the storm left a profound impact. Hours after the storm passed, Eric was among the first residents to clear roads, tarp roofs, and, in the following days, provide guidance and strong advocacy for those affected by the destruction, drawing from his own experience as a survivor.
This experience further bolstered his passion to educate other industry professionals, leading him to teach seminars to property loss authorities across the nation, including in Florida. He has also served as an adjunct professor at Gulf Coast State College, teaching evidence classes for the police academy.
Whether overseeing a residential roof replacement or a commercial construction project, Eric combines his practical construction knowledge, investigative rigor, and legal expertise to deliver projects on time, within budget, and to the highest standards our clients deserve.

“At Statewide, I lead a team that’s more than builders—we’re your trusted partners, combining decades of hands-on expertise with strategic leadership to protect and enhance your property. I’m proud to lead this team alongside my partner and co-founder Dan Sinclair, as together, we’re dedicated to earning your trust with every nail driven and every project completed.”
