Professional solutions and Peace of Mind

Have you ever had to fight your insurance company for payout of a claim that seemed perfectly simple and straight forward when you began the process? Then to make matters worse the service provider is making life more difficult by refusing to act unless there is commitment of payment or fear of admitting fault.

It happens surprisingly often with building complexes:

  • A minor water leak over night that goes unnoticed and unattended suddenly leads to a flood of water running down the lift shaft or through the escalators.
  • A hot joint in a switchboard which has been deteriorating for weeks suddenly catches on fire and spreads through the lift machine room.
  • The sewage pipe in the 10th floor bathroom lets go and empties down the lift shaft
  • A elderly gentleman trips coming out of the lift car because it’s clamed the lift did not stop level with the floor
  • A group of people are injured on an escalator because they claim the handrail slipped causing them to fall backwards.
