Insurance Surveying

CS2 can manage and resolve building claims for Insurers, loss adjusters, policyholders and their advisors.  We advise insurers, loss adjusters and policyholders regarding technical and engineering aspects of building damage and subsidence claims.

We specialise in the HNW market and historic built environment, and we often engage on complex claims that require robust project management and accurate financial control.

Our Director holds a BDMA Insurance technician qualification and is a Chartered Building Surveyor member of RICS.  He has many years experience dealing with and managing building insurance losses.  He has leadership and communication skills for negotiations, conflict resolution and high profile claims.

Our services also include initial emergency works and main reinstatement works.  We can fully manage projects and take lead responsibility; assess rebuild values, co-ordinate insurance projects alongside other professionals and stakeholders.

We also offer advice on all aspects of building damage in relation to subsidence, heave and ground movement.  Our professional services include specific defect surveys focused on a particular area of a property to assess the seriousness and extent of movement, initial appraisal reports, remedial works, precision monitoring of structures and surrounding land, detailed post-investigation reports and design and project management of remedial works.

As a RICS regulated firm we are highly experienced and qualified, and we have expertise in co–ordinating projects with other professionals to ensure all works are completed efficiently, in compliance with quality and regulatory standards, and with minimum disruption.  We monitor and manage the project life cycle and all quality and control aspects of the Works.  We manage and oversee remediation and drying works.

We can also plan, manage and co–ordinate health-and-safety requirements under CDM Regulations 2015.  We act as Principal Designer on claim values up to £2M.
