Reinstatement Value and Insurance Claims

It is important that properties are correctly insured for their rebuilding cost in the event of total destruction and many clients do not appreciate the cost of rebuilding is unrelated to market value.

The cost of rebuilding depends on the location and type of construction. Quite often the cost of rebuilding older properties exceeds the market value.

If a property is underinsured and a claim is made, the insurers often only pay out a proportion of the claim depending on the amount of under-insurance.

We shall be pleased to advise on the cost of rebuilding based on the latest information from the RICS BCIS information service. A reinstatement value for insurance purposes is not included in the Building Survey but can be provided for a small additional fee,please call us today on 0800 023 6302 and we will be pleased to help you with your claim.

Clients often do not realise that they are entitled to be independently represented when making a claim to their insurers for subsidence, fire or flood damage. We shall be pleased to assist with such claims and will negotiate with the loss adjusters appointed by the insurers to obtain the best settlement.
