FAQ

MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

My Insurance Company has Denied My Insurance Claim for a Recent Flood Event. Can You Write a Report to Counter their Refusal?

An insurance company would only refuse a claim based on the advice from a engineer. You should be able to obtain a copy of their engineers flood report that was used to rule on the claim. As part of our assessment we would generally review the insurers report. We would work to determine the cause of flooding regardless of the findings of the insurers report. Sometimes we agree with the insurers report and other times we disagree.

We would only prepare a flood emergency management plan if we believe that the risk to the development can be mitigated with the use of an FEMP. For example, sometimes a development should not occur because the risk of isolation, injury or damages cannot be mitigated because there is little warning time prior to a flood event. Site users would be caught unaware and unable to escape flood water and therefore the FEMP would be pointless.

There are many different types of reports we complete, some of which are not listed here. It would be appropriate to make contact with our office and discuss your needs with one of our engineers.
