Expert’s report on damages
What is an Expert’s Report on Damages?
TECHNICAL INSPECTION REPORTS, STUDY OF PATHOLOGIES, EXPERT’S REPORTS AND APPRAISAL OF DAMAGES
The expert’s report on damages is conducted by a qualified expert who analyses the pathologies and defects detected in a specific property (cracks, flooding, breakages, etc.) to determine their causes. This analysis may include details by the expert, with an appraisal of the damages and if they can/should be repaired (opinion).
Upon the analysis, Gloval issues different types of reports, including the technical building inspection and appraisals on the building, accidents, damages and risks, as well as the maintenance and update of insurance.
