Peace of mind
Although carrying all the traditional models and values they also embrace modern technology and have developed systems that have allowed continuous improvement of their product. Having a charter mark allows clients peace of mind that all business processes and practices are carried out to the highest possible standards backed and regulated by the Chartered Institute of Building.
Qi Survey surveyors are trained to provide drying assessments and scoping at initial survey stage to allow immediate commencement of restoration services and to minimise the overall claim life-cycle and spend. It is proven that early commencement of restoration can drastically reduce the indemnity spend for insurers and provide a much smoother and more timely claim journey for customers. With the latest technology they can accurately scope and cost these works to allow full control at the earliest possible stage.
Qi Survey offers a wide portfolio of services which can be tailored to individual requirements or business processes. Amongst these are:
- On-site claim validation, cash settlement and repudiation
- Desktop validations
- Innovative roof and high level property inspection
- Independent scoping of works
- Pre and post work completion checks
- Quality and workmanship auditing
- Drying survey and reporting
- Third party property damage reports.
