Loss Assessor Fees for Homeowners
By appointing Morgan Clark, along with the Chartered Surveyor and approved builders we introduce from our network of experts, our services will be free to you.
Every firm in our network is carefully selected by Morgan Clark’s directors; each one is monitored regularly to ensure they continue to meet our stringent standards. The contractors who repair your home are paid by your insurance company as part of your claim and they, in turn, pay us a fee for managing the network.
Transparency Note: While there is no direct cost to you, it’s important to understand that our fee is included in the commercial arrangement with the contractor. This does not increase your claim value or reduce your entitlement, but we believe it is only fair that you are fully aware of how we are paid.
Alternative Settlement Options
If you prefer to use your own builder, your insurer’s builder, or wish to pursue a cash settlement, we can negotiate any of these options on your behalf. You can absolutely still appoint Morgan Clark to manage your claim. In these cases, we charge a fee representing a small percentage of the final claim value; our objective is to secure an increased settlement that helps mitigate or offset the cost of our fee. We will discuss this fee clearly with you before you appoint us, so you can confidently decide on the best route forward for your claim.
Complimentary Initial Consultation
We offer a free initial consultation to discuss your case. During this meeting, we will:
- Review your current situation and policy position to fully understand the details of your loss.
- Explain every option available to you and outline the next steps.
- Identify potential challenges or problems we anticipate arising during your claim.
- Answer any questions you have, including sensitive concerns you may feel uncomfortable discussing with your insurance company or their Loss Adjuster.
We are here to ensure you have complete clarity and support from day one.

Popular Questions
-
What will my insurance company think if I appoint a Loss Assessor?
-
There is no reason why your insurance company or Loss Adjuster should discourage you from appointing your own Loss Assessor. If your Loss Adjuster is trying to dissuade you from using our services, you should question why they are against the idea of you being equally represented. After all, a Loss Assessor can only help a policyholder claim for what is legally within their insurance contract. Click here to read more about Loss Adjusters.
-
Doesn’t my insurance company manage my claim?
-
While many insurance companies will support you in the initial weeks of your claim, their only responsibility is to ensure costs are covered to restore your property and replace damaged contents, stock, machinery etc. (if applicable). As your claim progresses, you will be left with the most stressful and time consuming day-to-day elements to organise and oversee alone if you do not appoint a Loss Assessor.
-
What’s the difference between a Loss Assessor and a Loss Adjuster?
-
Loss Assessors and Loss Adjusters are both insurance claim professionals, but there is one key difference in their role during the insurance claim process; a Loss Assessor is appointed by and works exclusively for the policyholder, while a Loss Adjuster is appointed and paid by the insurance company. Loss Adjusters are expected to remain independent. Read more about the difference between Loss Assessors and Loss Adjusters here.
