Insurance Claim Inspections & Assessments
Description
Finalinspect provides completely independent insurance claim inspections, assessments, and reports to assist property owners in navigating stressful and complex insurance disputes. With over 30 years of experience in the residential construction industry, their expert inspectors are highly equipped to challenge the conservative assessments and complex language typically used by insurance companies, ensuring clients receive the coverage they are rightfully owed. A major focus of this service is Builder’s Warranty Insurance claims, which occur when a builder dies, becomes bankrupt, or disappears, leaving a new home, townhouse, or apartment partly completed. Because insurance companies often attempt to pay the bare minimum, their assessments may fall short of the original building plans, engineer's specifications, or minimum building standards. Finalinspect thoroughly evaluates the semi-completed building before the insurance assessor arrives, outlining every detail required to finish the construction in strict compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC) and relevant Australian Standards. They also offer re-inspections once the building is fully completed to verify the quality of the final work. Additionally, Finalinspect assesses properties that have suffered severe damage from storms, floods, and fires. They meticulously inspect both the damaged building and the surrounding landscape to prepare a comprehensive Scope of Works (SOW). This detailed, typed report sets out the full extent of the damage and lists all necessary remedial works—or a complete rebuild, if required—to restore the property to its original state. By providing this robust, independent evidence, Finalinspect empowers clients to secure adequate payouts and properly repair or complete their investments.
