It has been confirmed by the Government and the Financial Conduct Authority that our services and sector fall within the definition of an essential service, in that we form part of the processing of insurance claims and the property repairs required thereby.

Our Promise To You
We have carried out our risk assessment and operate our daily business within these parameters. Before any work is carried out we also undertake to carry out a further risk assessment for your property, taking into consideration your particular requirements. All our staff have undertaken additional training to equip them with the knowledge they need to operate safely. We have also distributed PPE to our staff in accordance with the Government guidelines.

What We Need From You
Before we visit your property we will ask you some basic health surveillance questions in order to establish if your property is safe to enter. We would ask that you answer these questions as truthfully as possible in order to allow our staff to safely enter. We particularly need to know if anyone has symptoms, has been self isolating, has contracted or is recovering from the virus or is deemed to be at risk due to existing health conditions or age.
