Protecting your property

Parking permits and access

During your office move,  we will arrange for parking permits so we have access to both premises. If necessary we will liaise with local police or local authorities to ensure there are no unforeseen delays due to poor access

Building protection

As part of our service, we will protect lifts, staircases, entrances, doors and vulnerable areas in your building, to give you and your landlord complete peace of mind during your office move.  Before and after the business relocation we will carry out a thorough condition check to assess the premises.

We will develop a list, along with digital photos, of any areas along our access routes which have been damaged prior to the commencement of our work.

Once this assessment has been completed we will identify all areas which will require protection and agree this with you prior to any work commencing on site. High access areas may include:

  • Lifts
  • Lobbies
  • Main Walkways
  • Stairwells

Pickfords has spent years developing specialist materials designed to ensure that your existing and new premises are fully protected throughout the office move process.

We will use Masonite or similar products to protect your property. We utilise a special polypropylene protection for lifts, walls and doors which is secured with a low tack tape to ensure it is removed with ease and reduces the chances of any damage to the surface finish i.e. wall paper, paint etc. Following the completion of the move, all building protection will be removed and recycled in an appropriate manner

Insurance options

We know it is vital to protect your properties during the removal so we offer insurance for maximum protections.  Our standard insurance is offered on an indemnity basis.  This means the insurer will repair, reinstate or replace property that is lost or damaged or alternatively indemnify the customer by means of a monetary settlement (at their option).

Premisis protection insurance for your property

For your complete peace of mind,  Pickfords  provides premises protection insurance on an indemnity basis to protect both your existing and new property during the business move.

In-house claims management

Pickfords manages the settlement of claims in-house and never passes its clients to a third party to settle outstanding issues. Find out more about premisis protection insurance.
