Get it wrong and it costs you ## Common Issues in Insurance Work Projects Professional management is required to avoid typical construction pitfalls. ### Inaccurate Financial Planning A clear scope helps with budgeting. Our quantity surveyor prepares a cost plan to support the quotation and payment schedule. Unexpected conditions or changes to the work can affect costs, so these need to be discussed as the project develops. ### Fragmented Trade Management Trade coordination helps reduce avoidable delays. Our team schedule the work with our in-house team and partner trades. Electrical and gas work is carried out by appropriately registered partner trades, such as NICEIC/NAPIT electricians and Gas Safe engineers, not certified by Swift Build itself. ### Non-Compliance with Building Regulations The building control requirements depend on the proposed work. We manage the required inspections and sign-off as part of the build, with the relevant design information and partner trades involved where needed. ### Poor Site Management and Dust Control Building work can be disruptive.

We discuss the specification as part of the cost plan rather than assuming particular products or systems are included. Our team coordinate the team and partner trades around the agreed drawings and specification. Questions about the work can be raised with him throughout the build. ### Construction Methods and Structural Engineering The repair scope needs to reflect the condition of the property and any relevant professional assessment. Structural concerns may require specialist advice before building work can be agreed. Confirm any claim requirements with your insurer before instructing work. Our quotation relates to the agreed building scope and does not confirm whether a claim will be covered or paid. ### Architectural Integration and Design For repairs to an existing property, discuss the desired finish and any drawings or repair specification at the site visit. Partner architects and designers can assist where design input is required. Carpentry, plastering and other finishing work should be defined in the agreed repair scope. Our team coordinate our carpenter and the relevant partner trades. ### Residential vs Commercial Requirements We undertake domestic and commercial building work. A repair enquiry is reviewed individually so we can discuss what is needed and whether it falls within our scope. Your insurer determines cover, authorisation and claim payments. Please check its requirements before agreeing building work; our project management service does not replace insurance advice.
