You never know when a property disaster is going to occur such as subsidence, flooding or a fire, which is why home insurance is so important. But, handling your insurance claim can be very stressful and we’ve all heard stories of insurance companies trying to weasel out of settling claims. Hiring a professional insurance team is a great solution. Working on your behalf of yourself, they will make your claim as straight forward as possible.


Here we explain how they can assist with your insurance claim.


Liaison with your insurer

No matter how big or small your claim is, speaking to your insurer if often a stressful process. However, with a professional team by your side, they can communicate for you and debunk the technical jargon and questions that your insurers may ask. Relaying the right information to your insurer is perhaps the most important part of your claim so having expert help will ensure that you’re in the best position.


Identify the cause of the damage

When your property and valuables are damaged the last thing you want is a substandard solution. A good representative will help specify the scope of the repair work so you are left fulfilled and don’t have to go back over the repairs. It’s important that the cause of the damage is identified properly to prevent it from occurring again and ensure that the correct repairs are done.


Check the quality of repairs

Don’t get caught out by your insurer with dodgy repairs. Instead, an expert claims team can oversee the work and check that the repairs are high-quality. As experienced professionals in the field of work, you will reduce your chances of ongoing problems and get a solution quickly.

At Simon Levy Associates , we have experience handling a range of property insurance claims. Based across Borehamwood, Barnet and Watford, we’re on hand to relieve your stress by sorting your claim in a professional manner including specifying the repair scope, ensuring that any work required is administered, overseen and certified.
