THE EXPERTS ON YOUR SIDE

Fire Insurance Claims

How to rebuild after a fire, with a fair insurance settlement and property repairs.

Whether it’s a candle, chip pan or chimney fire, electrical or appliance-related, or a cigarette or arson blaze, a fire can bring extensive damage to your home or commercial premises.

Visible and invisible damage to the building’s fabric and your fixtures, possessions, assets and furnishings, caused by flames, soot and water, requires careful inspection.

Added to that, knowing how to accurately ‘rebuild’ your life and get back to your pre-loss state can be really hard to do, especially if you don’t understand the small print inside-out.

Negotiating your own fire insurance claim could be challenging without a loss assessor arguing your case and representing your interests during discussions with your insurer and their loss adjuster. It could also be stressful and hard-to-manage alongside other commitments. It may take energy you really can’t give and could be another burden on top of the toll the fire has already taken.

Generally, you will need to provide proof of insurance, a copy of the police report (if the fire was caused by a criminal act), and documentation of the damages, such as photographs and receipts. As your Loss Assessor, we’ll take the stress of gathering this information entirely off your shoulders. We will visit your home or premises to gather any supporting documentation and available receipts for items that were damaged or destroyed. We will then arrange for these items to be listed and photographed, ready for submission of your claim to your insurance company.
