A fire in the home is a traumatic
experience for the whole family.
Physical damage from the fire can
extend into areas not visible and the soot will find
its way into every nook and cranny in the house. The
soot is corrosive and will eat into the electronic
components of TVs, Videos and DVDs, therefore it is
important that your home is thoroughly cleaned to
prevent further long term issues.
You will have questions following
the fire to your home, some of which may be:
-
How long will it take to make
my fire insurance claim?
-
Where can my family live while
the fire damage repairs are going on?
-
Do we have control over what
work is carried out on our property?
-
Can we choose which Surveyors
and Contractors work on our home, rather than
having to use the ones favoured by the insurance
company?
-
How can we be confident the
repairs have been thorough?
-
How do we put together the
contents and buildings claims to ensure we get
everything we are entitled to?
-
How will we find the time to
make the daily telephone calls, attend meetings
with the insurance company, loss adjuster,
surveyor, contractors, suppliers etc?
Without the support of Loss
Assessors like Morgan Clark, it is your
responsibility as the policyholder, to find answers
to all of these questions - and a lot more besides.
Don't forget - the loss adjuster's
job is to "adjust" your contents and buildings
insurance claim once you have spent all the time
needed to prepare it for them, and although they are
officially independent he is employed by the
insurance company and must therefore settle your
fire insurance claim as economically as possible.
The reality is that without
engaging the expertise of a Loss Assessing firm like
Morgan Clark you will find it very hard to guarantee
your property has been reinstated to the best
possible standard, and that you receive the full
compensation that is due under your home insurance
policy. Please
