About Us
If your items are bulky, you can’t travel, or you don’t want to be without your items for any reason, a very discrete and personal service is provided to clients with a home visit valuation consultation. Geoff can visit you in the privacy of your home or office to carry out a valuation of jewellery, watches and other precious items. All the necessary work to value your items is carried out at a place convenient to you - so you don't have a day without your beloved pieces. In addition to providing a valuation, the visit enables you to have the opportunity to fully discuss your items, their provenance and background so that a fully researched appraisal and valuation report can be presented.
Alternatively, have a chat with Geoff about leaving your items to be valued within an agreed time-frame at a number of locations throughout the Midlands and beyond.
Members of the Public - Valuations for insurance, probate valuations, capital gains assessments and family division valuations.
Legal Professionals - Expert witness reports for court and mediation proceedings. Reports for retail dispute resolution. Services are offered to legal representatives or Executors of estates and wills.
Retail Jewellers - Outsourcing from jewellers who want to provide valuation services but don’t have the expertise in-house.
Geoff’s main area of work is the Worcestershire, West Midlands, Staffordshire, Warwickshire, though he can or course travel further afield.
