Insurance - Burst Tank in Loft
Mr & Mrs Goldman, Worcester
Aug 2018
Burst Tank
Following a burst tank in the loft Mr & Mrs Goldman contacted their insurance company who referred them to an insurance assessor. The house was built in 1996 and the assessor’s report discovered that existing artex may contain asbestos. Samples were sent for testing before any work could take place. The report identified damage to the ceiling on the landing and specified:-
- New ceiling
- New loft hatch
- Decorating to hall, stairs and landing
Site Survey
Ian from AllBritain met with the Goldman’s at their lovely home and assessed the damage and produced a free quotation for repairs.
