Immediate & Expert Fire Damage Claims Management for Irish Homeowners
A house fire is a devastating and traumatic event. Beyond the visible damage, the complexity of a fire damage insurance claim is overwhelming, often involving structural issues, pervasive smoke damage, and total loss of contents.
At Claims Assist Loss Assessors, we understand the urgency and the emotional stress. We immediately step in as your independent Public Loss Assessor to take control of the claim, ensuring your focus remains on your family, not paperwork. We handle everything, from securing the site to achieving the maximum settlement for your property loss and contents.
Fire damage claims are fundamentally different from water or storm claims. They involve deep, hidden issues that the insurer’s Loss Adjuster can overlook or undervalue.
Why Fire Claims Require Specialist Expertise
Pervasive Smoke Damage
Smoke residue penetrates walls, ceilings, and ventilation systems, causing odour and corrosion. We quantify the full cost of specialised cleaning, neutralisation, and deodorisation, not just basic wipe-down costs.
Total Contents Loss:
We assist in compiling the detailed inventory and replacement cost schedule for every single item lost or damaged. This complex task is essential for a full contents claim.
Structural and Hidden Damage
Heat can weaken rafters and structural timbers, and extinguishing water can cause secondary damage. We instruct surveyors and structural engineers immediately to capture all evidence.
Alternative Accommodation
If your home is uninhabitable, we immediately negotiate the provision and full costs of suitable alternative accommodation under your policy.
