Your house claim, step by step

We understand that making a claim can be stressful. Here’s some information to help you understand the stages of your claim.
Step 1

Assessing your property

We may need to see your property and have a look over the damage that's been caused. If so, one of our assessors will be in touch to organise a time that works for you. They’ll walk you through the next steps and take photos of the damage if needed.

If your property is unsafe we’ll arrange for a builder to secure your home while we get started on your claim.

Step 2

Getting your property repaired

Our assessor will book an appointment with a builder. The builder will discuss how the damage to your property will be repaired and set a schedule for the work to start.

We can give you a list of preferred builders who can assess your property and report directly to us, which will save you time. If you'd prefer to pick your own builder, that's no problem.

Step 3

All done!

When your repairs have been completed, we’ll be in touch to check that you’re happy with them. If there is an excess, you'll pay this directly to the builder.
