Through years of meeting the needs of the insurance industry and incorporating industry requirements and feedback, iv3CUS has developed various proven report options, including:
Premium Plus Report
The Premium Plus report is best suited to risks with a calculated replacement cost over $750,000. It includes room-byroom inspection by a qualified inspector, full narrative description with supporting images, risk information provided in a Risk Factor Rating summary, scale diagram and replacement cost calculation. Our Premium Plus report also includes the DRI report, plus other supplementary reports based on property features.
Our high-value dwellings division is managed by a professional staff with more than 100 years of combined experience in the residential construction industry. We use only industry-approved evaluation software to ensure the accuracy of our valuations.
Main Street Report
Our MainStreet report is ideal for dwellings with a calculated replacement cost up to $750,000. The report includes a room-by-room inspection, risk information, narrative description, loss control recommendations, scale diagram, and replacement cost calculation. Supplementary reports based on the property features are also provided.
This division is overseen by a professional staff trained to the highest standards. They gather evaluation data and quickly spot areas of concern related to a property’s interior or exterior. Each completed report undergoes verification by our quality assurance team to ensure total accuracy.
Wood Stove Inspection Reports
Our Wood Energy Technology Transfer (WETT) certified inspectors and quality assurance specialists ensure that a solid fuel installation report is conducted with a zero tolerance approach. When we encounter a system which does not meet current standards, we recommend appropriate courses of action.
Oil Tank Inspection Reports
An old, poorly-installed, badly-maintained or damaged oil tank is a serious risk to a property. Our qualified inspectors are trained to assess the condition and installation technique of a tank and provide you with a report listing details about risks to the property.
