SootSpec
For insurers, loss adjusters and property managers

Documented so a claim can be approved, checked and closed.

One file per job and one contact person. Emergency measures are reported the same day, and nothing major happens without written approval.

How a claim runs with us

Emergency measures

Started immediately, documented and reported the same day.

Damage report

Findings, damage mechanism, decisions per material, quantities and photos.

Itemised estimate

Broken down by phase so each cost can be checked.

Written approval

Major demolition and rebuild start only after the scope is approved in writing.

Change orders

Anything found later is reported with photos and approved before the work is done.

Completion report and invoice

The invoice matches the approved estimate and change orders, with the full handover file.

For property managers and housing associations

Fires rarely stay in one apartment. We check neighbouring units, the stairwell and the ventilation, keep common areas protected and inform residents about working times and access.

Clean or replace, with the reason

Every material gets a documented decision: clean, seal, replace, test or assess. Cleaning instead of replacing where it is safe keeps the claim cost down.
