Be aware of fees for professional services that insurers and Loss Adjusters often overlook!
We’ve managed many insurance repair claims where insurers haven’t included costs for professional services. IC Assist however, do things the right way! So should your claim require any professionals, we’ll ensure your insurance company pays these costs (if your policy includes them). Examples of professional fees and services that can sometimes be necessary are:
- Party Wall Surveyor – If a party wall needs to be repaired, you’re required by law, to serve a Party Wall Notice to comply with the Party Wall Act 1996. (A party wall, is one that you share with your adjoining neighbour.) It’s crucial it’s done correctly. As you can’t start any repairs, until your neighbour consents to the proposed work.
- Building Control – Where repairs are of a structural nature (such as replacing rotten joists), Building Control must be notified. Before any work can begin, we must submit an application outlining the proposed works. We will then liaise with their inspectors, to ensure compliance with current building regulations.
- Structural surveyors. Where the safety of your building is affected, a structural survey will be necessary to ensure no one is put at risk.
Don’t worry, if your claim requires any of the above, IC Assist can arrange and deal with everything for you.
Why try to manage the repairs yourself, when you can leave it all to us?
Dealing with insurance claim repairs yourself isn’t easy. For instance, trying to organise several quotes for your insurer is not only frustrating, time consuming and unnecessary. But most property owners don’t have much experience in repairing buildings. As a result, they don’t know what they should ask contractors to quote for. Our Claims Manager however, has the experience and knowledge to ensure you make a successful insurance claim. IC Assist do not charge you or your insurer for managing your claim, providing we carry out all the repairs. So why waste your time arranging quotes and managing tradesmen, when we manage everything free of charge?
