TESTIMONIALS

Real-life examples from our clients

The fire that the insurance company tried to fix with paint

During a house fire, smoke and hot gases affected the entire home. The insurance company valued the damage at €12,000, proposing to paint the walls and perform a superficial cleaning.

The owner commissioned an independent report from ÓPTIMA PERICIAL. The detailed inspection revealed previously unforeseen damage: soot fused to woodwork, corrosion of metals from combustion gases, detachment of tiles due to thermal expansion, and numerous items among the contents that had not been valued. Furthermore, the necessary cleaning required specialized technical cleaning involving the dismantling of components.

The expert report required a complete review of the case file. The final compensation amounted from €12,000 to €80,000.

The flooding that couldn't be solved by painting

Heavy rain flooded the roof of a country house in Ibiza, causing water to seep inside and soak the walls and furniture. The insurance company proposed repairing and painting the walls, fixing the furniture, and applying high depreciation charges to the contents.

The owner requested a report from ÓPTIMA PERICIAL. The analysis showed that the walls were saturated and it was necessary to remove the deteriorated plaster and redo it. Most of the furniture was beyond repair and had to be replaced at its new value, and the repair costs charged by the insurance company were based on an internally agreed-upon value from their repairers, not market price.

The insurer reviewed its initial assessment and adjusted the compensation to reflect the actual extent of the damages. The insurer's proposed compensation increased from €5,400 to €18,000.

The flood that the Consortium wanted to pay for at 60%

The heavy rains from the September DANA storm had flooded the city. A ground-floor apartment was completely submerged and suffered extensive damage. The insurance company accepted the claim as covered but applied a 40% underinsurance rate and also failed to assess several damages that the insured party considered covered.

The owner commissioned a report from ÓPTIMA PERICIAL. The analysis of the policy showed that there was no underinsurance and that the valuation omitted relevant damage to cladding, woodwork, and installations.

The report made it possible to claim the real amount of the loss, which amounted to 190,000 euros, forcing a review of the initial valuation of 56,000 euros.

The continuous pavement that could not be repaired in sections

A water leak damaged a continuous microcement floor in several rooms of a house. The insurance company proposed repairing only the affected areas and valued the damage at 2,700 euros.

The report from ÓPTIMA PERICIAL explained technically why microcement does not allow partial repairs without leaving visible differences and justified that to return the pavement to its previous state it was necessary to completely redo it up to the corresponding expansion joint.

Following the technical claim, the final compensation amounted to 31,000 euros.

The wind that the insurance company said did not reach the threshold

A storm damaged the roof of a house, but the insurer rejected the claim, arguing that the wind speed did not reach the minimum established in the policy.

ÓPTIMA PERICIAL prepared a detailed meteorological study that also considered the general and specific circumstances of the incident. The report demonstrated that the gusts exceeded the coverage threshold.

The insurance company reviewed the file and acknowledged compensation of 67,000 euros.

The wall that the insurance company classified as an inherent defect

Following heavy rains, a large wall fractured in several places, requiring its demolition and reconstruction. The insurance company rejected the claim, citing a landslide and inherent defects.

The report from ÓPTIMA PERICIAL first analyzed the weather conditions on the day of the incident and the origin of the fracture. It then confirmed the absence of any landslide or defect in the insured property. It established that the hydrostatic pressure generated by the rain was the cause of the damage and that the wall had no pre-existing defects.

The insurance company eventually acknowledged the claim and paid 28,000 euros for its repair.

The theft in which the insurance applied excessive depreciation

Following a burglary, the insurance company valued the stolen goods, applying significant depreciation for wear and tear, and set compensation at €6,900.
ÓPTIMA PERICIAL reviewed the policy and the valuation. The report demonstrated that several items should have been valued at replacement cost and that the applied depreciation was inconsistent with their useful life.

After reviewing the file, the final compensation amounted to 24,000 euros.
