Estimates for Repairs

Vehicle damage: To process your claim we will require at least two estimates for the repairs to pass to our insurance company.  You may obtain these from companies of your choice.

Property damage: We do have operatives and contractors that we can call on to carry out estimates for the repairs if you wish, however, you may obtain estimates from companies of your choice.  Please let us know if you wish us to send our operatives/contractors out to assess and repair the damage.
