Vandalism

Despite even the best security measures, vandalism is a potential risk to property no matter what the location. Whether a property has fallen victim to graffiti, broken windows or even a break-in or arson, malicious damage can cause considerable distress, not least because of the intentional nature of the attack, but due to the unexpected time and effort involved in the clean-up and repairs needed to restore your property to its former condition.

Our team has extensive experience in helping insurance policy holders manage claims for various types of malicious damage and provide welcome relief to claimants during a particularly stressful time. We will compile and submit your claim to your insurer and negotiate with them and their loss adjuster on your behalf for the maximum entitlement, eliminating the stress associated with managing a claim for malicious damage or vandalism.
