About us

Chartered Surveyors can greatly assist in ensuring maximum payout from an insurance company following storm or flood damage. Insurers either instruct their own surveyors or loss adjusters to diagnose building defects following storm or flood damage.

Acting for the insurers they are invariably cautious in their estimations for repair works and leave homeowners with just enough money to put the problem right.

The damage is usually more widespread than the insurance company are willing to admit liability for and a surveyor can produce detailed works specifications which are tendered for quotations from local building companies. This will usually result in insurers having to renegotiate the payout awarded and will offer substantially more.

We are also in a position to project manage the repair or refurbishment to the satisfaction of both the insurer and policyholder.
