FAQs and common questions

The process of settling an insurance claim for damaged property can be complicated and frustrating. You can appoint a loss assessor to represent you (the policy holder). Loss Assessors speak to the insurance company on your behalf and will manage your insurance claim. A Loss Assessor uses their expertise and specialist knowledge to get you the best possible settlement figure.

Making an insurance claim is not always straightforward. A Loss Assessor will know what you can claim for and how to make sure you get your full entitlement. PCLA will provide advice and support to ensure you are fully aware of the claims process. It is our job to remove the stress and inconvenience of making a household insurance claim. We are Building surveyors and Certified insurance practitioners who will assess the damage to your property and draw up a schedule of loss. We work on your behalf, so that nothing is forgotten or overlooked. With PCLA working for you, we will ensure you get a fair settlement.

When you make a claim under your household insurance policy, the insurance company will appoint a loss adjuster. PCLA will act as your loss assessor and negotiate your claim on your behalf, meaning you don’t have to deal with the insurance company or their loss adjuster. As an independent company with over 20 years experience, we know how to make sure our clients get their full entitlement. Remember, we work for you.

At PCLA we believe in being upfront about our costs. Our initial survey is free. Even if our survey finds that it’s not actually a claim, there’s still no charge to you. If you appoint PCLA to manage your claim, we work on a ‘no win no fee’ basis. Once your claim is settled our professional fee of 10% plus VAT will be included in your settlement cheque.

We aim to meet clients on the next available working day. However, we try to accommodate client needs as best as we can. Call us today on 028 9581 5318 to arrange a time that suits you.
