INSUREPAIR, the Edinburgh-based fire and flood restoration specialist, has announced it is expanding into Glasgow in a move set to create up to 15 jobs in the coming year.
The all-trades reinstatement company has been servicing Scotland’s largest city from its HQ in the capital. However, increasing demand in the west of Scotland has prompted a scaling up of the business, with the Glasgow base set to open in Woodside Place later this month.
The new office is located in a converted Georgian townhouse and will allow INSUREPAIR to increase its focus on its west coast operation – something MD Richard O’Donnell has been considering for a while.
“This is a proud moment for us as a team,” explained Mr O’Donnell. “Our growth has been possible by focusing on effort and planning. We have a firm belief in our ability to perform and we regularly achieve the highest performing insurance contractor status while working for many insurers, loss adjusters and building repair networks.”
Also covering Fife and the central belt, the firm currently directly employs 24 permanent members of staff, supported by 15 specialist sub-contractors. Privately owned, INSUREPAIR is approved and accredited by major insurance companies, loss adjusters and building repair networks throughout the UK.
“We take pride in bringing properties back to their pre-incident condition and have always been able to provide robust and reliable customer service to our clients in Glasgow from our main office in Edinburgh,” Mr O’Donnell added. “With the growing demand in the west, it makes complete sense to now also have a base in what is Scotland’s biggest city. It’s a hugely exciting time for the business and I’m really looking forward to seeing where the next stage of this journey takes us as we build on the growth plans we have in place.”
