If your home has been affected by subsidence, you will be rightly concerned about the affect on its value and the inevitable disruption you face It’s an unfortunate fact that subsidence damage insurance claims can take months or possibly years to be resolved. As well as investigations to determine the full extent of the problem, there will also need to be remedial works such as underpinning and potentially internal repairs. As a consequence, you may even need to move out of your home. Unfortunately, we frequently find that insurers will try to ‘paper over the cracks’, rather than addressing the real underlying problems causing subsidence. That’s why it’s vital to get a Loss Assessor involved in your claim as soon as possible. After all, with a standard policy excess being £1000 it’s vital to get subsidence damage insurance claims right first time.
