A loss assessor on your side in Dorset

As your loss assessor, we handle every part of your claim for you, from the first visit to the final settlement. We make sure nothing is missed, so you receive your full entitlement.

Our Southern office in Cobham covers the whole of the South of England, so your loss assessor will come to you to inspect the damage, meet your insurer's loss adjuster at the property and keep an eye on the repairs.

From seafront flats in Bournemouth and Poole to thatched cottages and holiday lets along the coast, we know the claims Dorset properties bring.

Coastal storms

Strong winds and driving rain off the Channel can damage roofs, windows and seafront properties. We arrange emergency works and claim for all the damage.

Holiday lets and second homes

Damage to a property that's empty or let to guests can raise questions about cover. We check your policy and present the claim for you.

Fire, including thatched homes

FAQs

Questions from Dorset clients

See all FAQs
Do you cover all of Dorset?

Yes. Our Southern office covers the whole of Dorset, along with the rest of the South of England. Your loss assessor will visit your property.

My holiday home or second home was damaged while it was empty. Am I covered?

Possibly. Many policies restrict cover if a property is left unoccupied for longer than a set period, and holiday lets often need a specific type of policy. The exact wording matters, so don't assume the claim will fail. We can review your policy and present the claim for you.

When should I contact a loss assessor?

At the earliest opportunity. The start of your claim is the best time, because that's when your insurer instructs a loss adjuster to act on its behalf, not yours. If you appoint a loss assessor after the adjuster's report has gone in, it can be much harder to challenge.

How much do you charge?

Your first consultation is free and there's no obligation. We work on a no win, no fee basis, so we don't get paid until you do. Call us and we'll talk you through how our fees work for your claim.
