Insurance Claims Adjudication
Edgeworth Street is often called on by insurance claims assessors to assist in the adjudication of commercial and domestic buildings insurance claims in the Midlands region and beyond.
We are able to quickly perform specialised surveys and provide a professional opinion backed with an extensive photographic library pertinent to the details of the claim.
In recent months, we have been called in to examine commercial property roofing claims, flood claims and impact damage to buildings claims.
Our surveys have helped insurance assessors and insurance claims adjusters to quickly decide on the validity of claims made against buildings insurance policies.
Insurance Claims Adjudication Case Study
Rotton floor inspected during insurance claim work
We were asked to examine a floor where water had apparently leaked from a first floor flat, flooding the ground floor of a building and causing considerable damage.
Wet rot under floor boards
This is a photograph taken from underneath the floor showing considerable damage by dry and wet rot.
Wet and water damaged plaster from leak above
The original problem was caused by an overflowing water main in the prermises above, as evidenced by the damp and mouldy plaster.
Dry and wet rot
The extent of the damage to a floorboard attacked by wet rot, dry rot and wood boring weevil.
An insurance claims adjudication survey is very comprehensive and our surveyors ensure that the opinions provided are unbiased and fair.
Included as standard is a summary of the extent of the damage, an approximate figure of the likely cost of repair and a professional opinion of the cause of the problem, together with a photographic library demonstrating clearly the basis of our opinion.
Insurance claim adjudication services for commercial and residential buildings are available exclusively to insurance assessors. We offer a very fast turnround on this type of survey, with results typically available within 48 hours of site visit.
