insurance valuations

An up-to-date valuation of the contents of a house will ensure that, in the unfortunate event of having to make a claim, the correct compensation can be made. The value of an antique rarely moves in line with inflation and can change dramatically over time with factors such as demand, fashion, and deterioration all affecting price. Regular and accurate valuation of these items will greatly encourage the speedy settlement of any insurance claim.

The combined knowledge of our team of specialists and the archives available in our network of salerooms enables us to provide comprehensive and unbiased advice on all aspects of your Insurance requirements.

We offer an illustrated valuation service on single items, complete collections or full house contents. We also offer a re-valuation service at an agreed interval so that items can be re-assessed and additions and deletions noted on an amended inventory. Valuation of individual items or small collections can also be carried out, by appointment, at our saleroom.

Our valuation services are competitively priced, with the fee structure based on a transparent time-spent basis, thus avoiding the complication of scale fees.

Please contact the saleroom for further details of our Insurance Valuation service, or mail to dnfavaluations@dnfa.com.
