Supplier makes impassioned plea for help with insurance claim.
It is never good to see a demolition company fail, but it’s even worse when that company’s collapse threatens the livelihood of innocent suppliers. Which is why we are trying to help Yorkshire-based generator rental specialist Power-Rite to track down a pair of former Controlled Group employees who might just be able to save the company from an avoidable £20,000 loss.
Power-Rite’s Shaun Hymes says that one of his company’s generators was on Controlled Group’s Kingston House site in Liverpool when the contractor’s business collapsed but apparently went missing before administrators carried out a full inventory check. “The administrators are saying it was not on site so, in addition to losing £10,000 in revenue, I am also a £10k generator down.”
Hymes says that Controlled Group’s administrators have suggested that he claim for the loss of the generator through his own insurance, but Hymes says that his insurance excess is actually greater than the value of the equipment.
“I am trying to contact someone from the former Controlled Group who could help me prove the generator was on site when the company collapsed,” Hymes continues. “If anyone can help me to verify this, please get in touch.”
Power-Rite’s full contact details can be found here, and Shaun can be emailed direct at shaun@power-rite.co.uk.
