Listed Building Consent for Insurance Repairs

When a listed building is damaged by fire, flood, escape of water or vehicle impact, reinstatement works often require Listed Building Consent (LBC) before they can proceed. Delays in securing consent can slow down insurance claims and prevent repair works from starting on site.

Aurora Heritage Planning provides fast, proportionate heritage statements for insurance claims, supporting loss adjusters, building surveyors and claims managers across the UK.

Heritage statements for insurance claims (listed buildings)

We specialise in preparing heritage statements for Listed Building Consent applications relating to:

• Fire damage to listed buildings

• Flood and water damage repairs

• Impact damage (e.g. vehicles striking buildings)

• Emergency stabilisation and structural repairs

• Like-for-like reinstatement works

Our reports are tailored specifically for insurance-led repair schemes, where the scope of works is already defined and requires clear, policy-aligned justification.
