Flood Damage Repairs

If you have suffered a flood in your commercial or residential property, you already know the devastation that it causes.

 

 

Floods

Usually, after a flood, your insurers will send out a loss adjuster to look at your property and confirm that your policy covers your repairs and replacements.

As we work closely with insurance loss adjusters in adjudicating fire and flood claims, we are also ideally placed to assist policy holders directly.

There are many hidden costs in repairing a building following a flood, for example frying out the building, decontamination from foul water penetration, isolation and making safe of electricity supply, mud and sewage clearance - and that's all before any remedial work can take place.

Though loss adjusters will be sympathetic to a flood claim, their job is actually to minimise the cost of any claim for the insurance company - either by disallowing certain aspects of the claim or by downgrading the specification of any repair.



Using our services to specify the remedial works actually assists your loss adjuster, who will be able to rely on our objective appraisal of the works and initial costsings.

In addition, we can assist in the remedial works by appointing suitable contractors, specifying the works and project managing the entire process through to completion, saving much time in getting your premises re-occupied.

This service is offered to owners and tenants of commercial property throughout the UK and to insured householders in the West Midlands region.
