Insurance Claim Solutions - Insurance Loss Assessors

In business claims, visible damage often represents only part of the issue.

After a major fire, escape of water or flood, the immediate focus is usually on the physical damage and the initial shock that comes with it.

But for many businesses, the real challenges begin after that initial stage.

Business operations can be disrupted, sales may fall, and staff, stock, customers, and daily routines can all be impacted.

This is when Business Interruption cover can play a big role in your claim, depending on what your policy says.

At this point, your claim might include things like:
-Loss of gross profit or revenue
-Ongoing fixed costs during the interruption
-Increased cost of working, such as leasing temporary premises or taking other steps to keep the business going

Often, physical damage is just one issue. The disruption to your business can be just as serious, or even worse.

That’s why you should never treat Business Interruption as an afterthought. It’s important to understand your cover before you need to use it.worse.

What first looked like a small fire had a much bigger impact on this home.

Although the flames were extinguished quickly, smoke, soot and odour contamination spread far beyond the room of origin, leaving the home unliveable.

Our role was to help guide the claim and support the process towards getting the home safe and liveable again.

Is the rain ever going to let up? 🌧️

We’ve been flat out with flood & water damage claims however we recently wrapped up an important fire claim that turned a family’s home upside down.

What stood out most was how simply the homeowner put it: they just wanted their home back to pre-loss condition - no more and no less.

That’s what a good claims process should achieve: a fair, practical route back to a safe, liveable home.

Because behind every claim is a household just trying to get back to normal.

If you’re dealing with storm, water, or fire damage and unsure of next steps, getting the right guidance early can make all the difference.

Tumble dryer season is officially here 🧺

With damp clothes taking 3–5 working days to dry, it’s tempting to keep that dryer running.

But tumble dryers are also one of the most common causes of domestic fires in Ireland and most are completely preventable.

From lint build-up to blocked filters and recalled models, small oversights can lead to major damage.

We’ve handled multiple fire claims caused by faulty or poorly maintained dryers and we’ve seen how quickly things can escalate.

This post shares simple, practical steps to reduce risk and protect your home.

💡 Pro tip: Make sure you have a working smoke detector in your laundry room or above your dryer.

Small habits prevent big losses.

⚠️Warning Signs You’re Already Underinsured⚠️

Most property owners/homeowners don’t realise they’re underinsured until they have to make a claim.

We see it every day: policies based on old purchase prices, estate agent valuations, or outdated sums insured. Add in rising rebuild costs and cost-of-living pressures, and it’s a perfect storm.

Lower premiums might feel like a win...but they often mean less cover and bigger gaps when it matters most. Even on small claims.

Swipe through to spot the early red flags .

Then ask yourself: Would my policy actually cover a full rebuild today?

Believe it or not, there’s been another e-bike fire.

But this time, it was different.

The battery wasn’t charging.
There was no power supply.
It was just sitting on a workbench, disconnected and idle when it suddenly went up in flames.

No warning. No misuse. Just a catastrophic failure.

By the time we were called in, the damage was extensive:
🔥 The entire unit was gutted
🔥 Roof timbers and internal walls were destroyed
🔥 Thick smoke had contaminated everything
🔥 Several neighbouring businesses were forced to shut down

The cause? A thermal runaway - a spontaneous chemical reaction inside the battery.

This is now the third e-bike fire we’ve dealt with.

And this changes the conversation.

This isn’t just about charging safety anymore.

It’s about storage, proximity to buildings, and how safe these batteries really are, even when powered off.

📸 This is what was left of an e-bike battery.

Our second fire claim this month , both in Dublin.
Same cause.
Same risk.
Different building.

It started in a hallway, while the battery was charging.

The result?
💥 An explosion
🔥 Flames
☠️ Toxic smoke
🏚️ Serious damage

Thankfully no one was injured but it could’ve been much worse.

We’re seeing more of these fires, especially in:

• Apartments
• Student housing
• Older homes that have been converted into flats

⚠️ Lithium battery fires aren’t rare anymore.

They start fast, burn hot, and release toxic smoke.
And they’re becoming more common, especially when bikes or scooters are left charging overnight.

If you use an e-bike or e-scooter, please don’t charge it in hallways or while you sleep.

Use the right charger. Keep it on a hard surface. And never leave it unattended.
