How Salmon Assessors will help with your Fire Claim

A serious fire is perhaps the most distressing and traumatic experience. The immediate priorities are often the making of arrangements for alternative accommodation, salvaging your remaining belongings and, of course, securing the protection of your property against further damage.

Salmon Assessors have dealt with thousands of claims over 25 years and no other firm of Assessors are more qualified to help you through such a disaster.

Even with a small fire, which has apparently caused little physical damage, you often find that the acrid and corrosive effects of smoke can linger for months and can present a health hazard in addition to damaging your contents and decorations.

So often, fire damage creeps into areas that you cannot see and the soot finds its way into electronic equipment. So often, corrosion damage is not visible at the time you are making an inventory of your damaged goods and this corrosion only becomes obvious perhaps a year or two later when your electronic equipment fails and it’s too late to put in an insurance claim.

Salmon Assessors will ensure that all of your electronic equipment is fully tested and cleaned inside even although there may not be any sign of external damage. Indeed, the cost of cleaning the inside of a television can often be more expensive than purchasing a new one.

It is vital that you call Salmon Assessors immediately after the fire and not to wait until after the insurance Loss Adjuster has visited you. Indeed, the first couple of days after a fire are often critical to the making of a successful fire damage claim.

Your insurance company will send a Loss Adjuster to visit you within 24hrs in order that they can compile a report to your insurance company with their findings. We also need to note these important findings which, in some cases, can often prove the difference between your fire damage claim being met or refused. In the case of a domestic fire, it is vital that stress levels are kept to a minimum especially when children form part of the household and Salmon Assessors’ job is to lift this burden from your shoulders and to ensure that your claim proceeds quickly and efficiently.

Our expert Assessors are on your side and will ensure that we quickly help you find alternative living accommodation and we will coordinate every aspect of your claim and ensure that we get every last penny to which you are entitled.
