Looking for advice/experiences...
Our house has been affected by subsidence, caused by a neighbour’s trees. After a long delay, the neighbour has at last agreed to having the trees removed, and we are awaiting the tree surgeons.
Now the insurance company have moved onto thinking about repairs. They have offered us the option of cash settlement instead of going with their own contractors. I have no idea if this would be better. Almost every room in the house needs to be replastered/repainted, external repairs including repointing, repairing lintels, door frames repaired, doors refitted etc. It seems like a big job!
I’d be really grateful if anyone could advise - very much in the dark here!
