Common problems claimants encounter when dealing with their insurance company.

A slow process.

You may feel like you’re getting the runaround from your insurance company. You’ve got a leak or have suffered other property damage and all you want to do is get it fixed! With PCLA acting on your behalf we will make sure you are our priority. We will prepare everything for the insurance company to ensure there are no delays on your end. Insurance claims don’t have to take a long time.

Interpreting the small print.

Legal jargon can be confusing, especially if you’ve never had to make a claim before. We are expert claims assessors. Therefore it’s our job to understand the fine print and to be able to negotiate the details with your insurance company. We take pride in making sure we deliver a settlement that our clients are entitled to.

Builders appointed by the insurance company.

Insurance companies have a pool of trades people they call upon. While this suits their needs, it doesn’t mean you’ll get the service you deserve. PCLA will do everything we can to make sure you can use a builder of your choosing.

Getting quotes for repair work

Your insurance company may demand that you provide them with a range of quotes for the repair work. This can be time consuming, especially if you don’t know any builders. 

PCLA are qualified Building Surveyors. We will undertake a thorough survey of your property to assess the full extent of damage. We then use this survey to compile costs to reinstate your property and this forms the basis of your claim. Therefore, there is no need for you to worry about sourcing quotes yourself.

Are you getting the full settlement you are entitled to?

If you don’t work in the insurance industry, how do you know you are being offered a fair deal? One of the ways you could lose out is if your claim has not been submitted properly or not all of the damage has been accounted for. As experienced loss assessors, PCLA will make sure you get the full entitlement you are entitled to under the terms of your policy.

Dining Room Water Damage: How Nearby Plumbing Leaks Can Ruin Your Space

Water damage is a silent intruder that can devastate a home before its full impact is realised. A single plumbing leak can lead to structural damage, ruined finishes, and complex insurance issues, particularly in open-plan homes. At PCLA, we’ve witnessed the far-reaching effects of such damage. Take, for example, a case from Ardboe in May 2024, where a seemingly minor leak spiralled into disaster, affecting the dining room and hallway. Discover how leaks in one room can wreak havoc in another and learn how to protect your home from similar fates.
