Loss Assessor in Loughrea, Co. Galway
We are based at Leitrim More, Kylebrack, a few miles outside Loughrea. If your house, farm or business in the town or the surrounding parishes has been damaged, we can usually be standing in it within a day or two of your call — and we act for you, not for your insurer.
Local, which matters more than it sounds
Claims are won and lost on evidence gathered early. Water that came through a lifted roof in November does not look like much by February, and the tradesman who pumped out your kitchen has long since gone. Being twenty minutes from Loughrea means we inspect while the damage is still there to be seen, photograph it properly, and record the things that get tidied away before an insurer ever looks at the property.
The claims we see most around Loughrea
Chimney fires in older stone houses, particularly through the winter. Escape of water from burst pipes and failed heating systems in properties left empty over a cold spell. Storm damage to roofs, sheds and outbuildings. Flooding in the low ground towards the lake and around the callows. Oil spills from domestic tanks, which are more expensive to remediate than most people expect and are frequently under-settled.
What we actually do for you
We inspect the damage and prepare our own assessment of it. We notify your insurer and take over the correspondence. When the insurer appoints a loss adjuster, we attend that inspection with you so that there is somebody in the room whose job is to represent your interest. We prepare and cost the full schedule of loss, we negotiate the settlement, and we stay with it until the money is issued.

Common questions
Do I have to use the loss adjuster my insurer sent?
You have to deal with them, but they are not your representative. The loss adjuster is appointed and paid by your insurer. You are entitled to appoint your own loss assessor at any point, including after an offer has been made.
How quickly can you get to a property in Loughrea?
Normally within one to two working days, and same-day for serious fire or flood damage where the property is unsafe or uninhabitable.
Is it too late if I already reported the claim?
No. We can be appointed at any stage, including where an offer is already on the table and you believe it is too low.
Talk to us before you agree a figure
The first consultation is free and there is no obligation. We will tell you honestly whether your claim needs an assessor.
