We will carry out repairs as soon as we have authorisation from your insurer or your authority if you decide to pay for the repair.

How much will I be liable to pay myself?
From the outset, we will examine your level of cover and notify you of any excess that may be required by your insurance company. Under most agreements this is a one-off payment of a minimal fixed amount. However, some claims may be subject to VAT and/or betterment charges imposed by your insurer. You should be notified of these in advance by your insurer.
