Residential / Commercial Property / Pleasure-craft and Other Claims:
- Please advise as soon as any loss or damage occurs.
- If the claim is for damage, please arrange for a written quote before proceeding with any repairs.

- please ensure the claim form is witnessed by a JP, solicitor or similar.
- please provide any documentation you may have to support "proof of ownership" and confirmation of the amounts claimed for - e.g original receipts/warranties/photos etc, plus written quotes or invoices for the current replacement values.
