Chimney Fire
Chimney fires can cause significant structural and aesthetic damage to a home. Often, these fires begin quietly, leading to undetected but serious consequences, such as damaged brickwork, cracked flues, and internal structural deterioration. In more severe cases, chimney fires can lead to further spread throughout the property, escalating the cost of repairs and restoration. Homeowners facing such incidents are often left dealing with complex insurance claims, as they try to secure the financial support necessary to repair and rebuild. At Eden Claims, we understand the unique challenges posed by chimney fires and are prepared to help you navigate every aspect of your insurance claim. By choosing us, you are choosing a team that will advocate on your behalf, ensuring the accurate valuation of your damages and a fair settlement.
Our Start-to-Finish Approach to Chimney Fire Insurance Claims Management
Initial Assessment and Reporting
As soon as you contact Eden Claims, we begin by performing a detailed assessment of the damage caused by the chimney fire. This includes inspecting the property to identify visible and hidden damage that may affect your insurance claim’s valuation. Our experts compile photographic evidence, measurements, and detailed
reports, ensuring that every aspect of the damage is documented.

Negotiation with Insurance Adjusters
Insurance adjusters play a significant role in determining the settlement of your claim. Our team at Eden Claims is experienced in handling negotiations with insurance adjusters to ensure that your claim is accurately represented. We advocate for a fair settlement, aiming to cover not only structural repairs but also any additional costs, such as temporary housing, cleaning, and restoration expenses.
Expert Consultation and Policy Review
Insurance policies can be complex, particularly when it comes to chimney fires, as coverage often depends on the cause and extent of the fire. At Eden Claims, we work closely with you to review your insurance policy in detail, identifying policy clauses and entitlements that may affect your claim. Our team of experts will explain these aspects in clear terms, helping you understand your rights and the potential for coverage under your specific policy.

Once your claim is approved, the restoration process can begin. Eden Claims goes a step further by assisting in the coordination of reputable restoration and repair services to restore your property to its original condition. We work with trusted contractors and professionals who specialise in fire damage repair, ensuring high standards of quality and efficiency.
Comprehensive Damage Evaluation
Accurate damage assessment is a critical element of a successful insurance claim for chimney fires. Eden Claims partners with industry specialists, including structural engineers, surveyors, and fire damage experts, who perform an exhaustive inspection of your property. This evaluation considers both direct damage, such as the fire-affected structure, and indirect impacts, like smoke infiltration and soot deposition throughout the home.

Even after the restoration work is completed, our service does not end. We help ensure that the final settlement covers any remaining expenses and address any post-claim queries or issues. At Eden Claims, we are committed to complete client satisfaction, and our post-claim support is designed to give you the reassurance that no detail is overlooked.
