Reinstatement

Reinstatement Insurance Valuations are important for all types of properties, both Commercial and Residential, and provide the insurers with an up-to-date value of what it would cost to rebuild the property in the event of an unforeseen event.

When was the last time your property was valued for insurance purposes?

Good practice shows that a property should be revalued every 3 years or when there is a change to the integrity of the building to ensure the total cost is in line with current build prices.

Annual adjustments to your insurance value may be out of alignment placing you at risk. With the market still volatile up to date construction costs are very important.

Did you know that 80% of commercial properties are under-insured?

If the insured amount does not fully cover the property this can result in insurers declining claims or only partially settling the full
amount. In addition, if the insured amount is too high it can result in premiums being overpaid in the long term.

Our team has the experience and knowledge to provide valued advice to ensure that your property is insured for the correct amount, protecting your asset for all eventualities.

Each process is governed by the Lease terms, or the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 and we guide our clients through the necessary steps to ensure their position is not compromised and crucial advice is provided when required, saving both time and money in the long term.
