EQC contents claims

We are often surprised that there are still Earth Quake related claims. Fine Antiques have been involved with earthquake damaged contents appraisals from the beginning and commissioned numerous times to provide second opinions for insurance claims.

We are happy to travel to your place to catalogue your items and can often provide valuation via email.

Mr Antony Gough - Testimonial

To the team at Fine Antiques,

It is with pleasure that I write this testimonial for you.

Antony Gough engaged the services of Fine Antiques to complete his contents claim following the February 2011 earthquakes. During this time Antony became very involved in the city’s rebuild and his personal earthquake claims were put to the side.

In 2015 it was decided that action should be taken and therefore Antony employed the services of fine antiques so that he could make good use of their expertise and knowledge to value his large antique collection and other curiosities.

Antony was able to trust that Fine Antiques could do the work and provide a well-documented valuation. This meant that when Antony’s claim was lodged it was settled in a matter of weeks.

I would like to thank Fine Antiques for their professional manner, sound knowledge and attention to detail they went beyond the brief in valuing items even by searching overseas. Antony found them incredibly knowledgeable.

Many Thanks

Lisa Williams
