An Appraisal occurs when a customer executes the right to dispute the damages the insurance company estimated for their loss. If you wrote a fair estimate and the insurance company’s estimate excludes a lot of damages, your customer may want to invoke Appraisal to help resolve the differences.

To invoke the appraisal process, you will need to send a written demand for Appraisal to your insurance company. This demand should include a clear description of each item of damaged property for which the value is in dispute.

There are many different scenarios that might induce a customer to pursue appraisal. Here are just a few:

  1. The insurance company provided an estimate that you are having to supplement with multiple line items that they missed or that the carrier won’t consider.
  2. The insurance company’s estimate did not include Overhead & Profit or Base Service Charges and there are multiple trades involved that the carrier won’t consider for supplemental inclusion.
  3. In a completed repair, job items were missed by the insurance adjuster, the customer may still be able to invoke appraisal.
  4. The insurance company used their own pricing to estimate the damage. For example, in a situation in which the insurance company used a one-line item, unit price for roofing and didn’t break it out, the customer may consider invoking Appraisal.

There are many more scenarios that may apply. It is in your customer’s best interest to have us review their circumstances.
