Rebuild Cost Assessment provides building insurance valuations so that owners can set the correct sum insured and avoid the effect of the average clause on a claim. The firm is regulated by RICS and carries out most assessments as desktop studies, with site surveys where a building’s features make a visit necessary. Its records from more than 29,000 residential and commercial assessments suggest that most UK properties are insured for the wrong amount. It works with private owners, landlords, insurance brokers, managing agents and insurers, and has particular experience of listed buildings from country houses and estates to town houses, farms and apartment blocks.
Suitable for: owners and agents of listed or unusual buildings who need a reliable reinstatement figure for insurance.
Services: rebuild cost assessments; desktop reinstatement valuations; site-based valuations; portfolio assessments for brokers and managing agents.
Location: Bridport Road, Dorchester, Dorset; works UK-wide.
