FAQs for Insurance Claim & Leak Detection Services in Strabane

Yes. We provide insurance claims support and specialist leak detection services across Strabane and the wider West Tyrone area.
Our work is primarily focused on owner-occupied residential properties, including houses, bungalows, and apartments. Where required, we also assist landlords and second-home owners.

Although we operate on a Northern Ireland–wide basis, our team responds locally and is familiar with the types of property, construction methods, and insurance issues commonly seen in and around Strabane.

We can usually provide initial guidance over the phone immediately, including advice on preventing further damage and protecting your insurance position.

For on-site attendance in Strabane:

  • We aim to attend within 24 hours wherever possible;
  • In urgent cases, we prioritise attendance based on severity;
  • We can also work around your availability if access is restricted.

Early involvement is important, particularly for water damage, storm claims, and fire damage, as delays can affect both the extent of damage and how insurers assess liability.

Our services are structured to minimise financial risk to homeowners.

Loss assessor and insurance claim support:

  • Operates on a no win, no fee basis;
  • Our fee is 10% + VAT of the final insurance settlement;
  • There are no upfront costs for claims representation.

Leak detection services

  • Pricing varies depending on property type and complexity;
  • Costs typically start from around £500;
  • In many cases, leak detection and trace & access costs are recoverable under your home insurance policy, subject to policy terms.

We will always explain likely costs and insurance recovery options before proceeding.

In many cases, yes, but this depends on how the policy is written and how the damage is presented.

  • Leak detection and trace & access costs are commonly covered under escape-of-water sections of home insurance policies;
  • Resulting damage to ceilings, walls, floors, and finishes is often insured;
  • The repair of the failed pipe or fitting itself may not be covered, but the surrounding damage usually is.

We assess your policy in detail and ensure claims are presented in line with FCA Consumer Duty principles, focusing on fair outcomes rather than narrow technical interpretations.

Yes. Our team includes experienced loss assessors, qualified building surveyors, and certified insurance practitioners.

We are:

  • Authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)
  • Experienced in handling residential claims across Northern Ireland
  • Familiar with insurer practices, policy wording interpretation, and the Financial Ombudsman’s approach

This technical expertise allows us to challenge incorrect assumptions, low valuations, or unfair claim decisions on your behalf.

Yes. We have supported homeowners across Strabane and the surrounding Tyrone area with claims involving:

  • Water leaks and escape of water;
  • Storm and roof damage;
  • Fire damage;
  • Flooding and resultant repairs.

Our experience in the local area helps us understand both property characteristics and how insurers typically respond to claims arising in this region.

This distinction is important.

  • A loss adjuster is appointed by the insurance company and works for the insurer;
  • A loss assessor works exclusively for you, the policyholder.

As independent loss assessors, we:

  • Interpret your policy in your interests;
  • Prepare and evidence the full value of your claim;
  • Negotiate directly with the insurer;
  • Aim to secure your full entitlement, not the insurer’s preferred outcome.

Acting early can make a significant difference.

  1. Take steps to prevent further damage, such as isolating water or electricity if safe to do so
  2. Document the damage with photos or video
  3. Contact us as soon as possible for guidance before agreeing to inspections, repairs, or settlement offers
  4. Avoid authorising permanent repairs or accepting insurer decisions without advice

We can advise you immediately and, where appropriate, attend your property in Strabane to assess damage, arrange leak detection, and manage the claim from start to finish.
