We are currently taking 8-10 working days on average to complete reports.
As these are subject to change, please check back for updates.
Are all travel expenses included within the site quote provided?
All costs are included in the quotation we have provided you. The exception to this is for Northern Ireland and the Highlands & Islands. We will need to review travel expenses before proceeding.
Can my quote change?
The quote is based off the information you have provided. If this information is not representative of the location, we reserve the right to amend our quote accordingly. You will be notified before any changes are processed.
Can we assess listed properties?
Do I need to supply measurements of my building?
Absolutely not. You can leave things like measurements to us, even when it’s a desktop assessment.
Do we provide assessments on properties in Northern Ireland?
Do we provide assessments on properties in the Channel Islands?
Do your charges include VAT?
Yes. Like most commercial arrangements HMRC set specific rules and guidance with regard to VAT and how it is charged (what products and services VAT will apply to and what rate). Our service, with respect to HMRC rules, is regarded as a Vatable supply and therefore all invoices for this service will have VAT added.
Does your assessment take all units/outbuildings into account or are these considered as separate properties?
Yes, the assessment will include all units/outbuildings within the boundaries of the property up to a limit of 7 and they will be separately recorded. If on receipt of the report a unit/outbuilding has not been recorded, please notify us immediately.
Does your desktop assessment take into account the materials the building is made from?
The buildings are assessed to include as much information as possible utilising the tools available to us at the time of the assessment. The notes within our Rebuild Cost Assessment report will clearly set out what is and isn’t included.
Google street maps does not show an up-to-date image of the property, will this affect the assessment?
We use a number of different sources of information to produce our Rebuild Cost Assessment reports. Our assessment does not solely rely on any one piece of information.
How can I be sure that the information you use to complete the Rebuild Cost Assessment is up-to-date?
All of our Rebuild Cost Assessment reports are quality assured prior to release by a member of our experienced team. The team have access to up-to-date rebuilding cost data available to guide them, such as the Building Cost Information Service compiled and maintained by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.
How do I place an order?
Simply visit the ‘Property Owners’ section of our website and look for the ‘Place Order’ button at the top of the page.
How does a valuation work?
How long does a desktop assessment take?
We provide a status for how long our desktop assessments are currently taking at the top of the homepage of our website. If it becomes apparent an assessment may take longer than this, we will contact you and advise you accordingly.
How long does a site assessment take?
This will typically range between 1 -3 hours however this will very much depend on the size and location of the property.
How much does a desktop Rebuild Cost Assessment cost?
Our desktop Rebuild Cost Assessments cost £199.75 per property, including VAT.
How much does a site assessment cost?
Should you request a site assessment, or should we be unable to complete a desktop assessment without visiting the property, we will contact you to discuss your needs and provide a quotation. The cost of a site Rebuild Cost Assessment depends on several factors, including the location and type of property involved. This means we only offer individual quotations per property for site assessments.
