Multi-disciplinary surveying and engineering consultancy Earl Kendrick has announced the promotion of Daniel Lane to Director, reflecting the company’s continued investment in technical excellence and specialist client services.
Dan leads the firm’s growing Reinstatement Cost Assessment division, overseeing the delivery of high-quality reinstatement cost assessments for clients across the property sector while supporting the wider strategic growth of the business as a member of the Board.
The promotion comes as demand continues to increase for accurate reinstatement cost assessments, with property owners and asset managers placing greater emphasis on ensuring buildings are insured correctly amid rising construction costs and changing market conditions.
Unlike many providers who approach reinstatement cost assessments as a routine compliance requirement, Earl Kendrick RCA has built its reputation on delivering comprehensive, technically robust assessments that provide clients with complete confidence in their insurance valuations.
As a multi-disciplinary consultancy, the business combines expertise from chartered building surveyors and engineers, enabling a collaborative approach that delivers more accurate, informed assessments across a diverse range of property types.
Julian Davies, Founder and Director of Earl Kendrick said:
“Dan’s promotion is thoroughly deserved. His commitment to quality, technical excellence and client service align exactly with the values that have always EK. Dan shares our philosophy completely, and I’m delighted to welcome him to our Board of Directors.”
Daniel Lane added:
“I’m incredibly proud to be taking on this role. Reinstatement Cost Assessments are fundamental to helping property owners protect one of their most valuable assets, and it’s important that they’re carried out properly. Our approach has always been to focus on quality rather than volume. Every building is different, and every assessment deserves the same level of care and technical expertise. I’m looking forward to continuing to develop the division and supporting our clients with the high standards they’ve come to expect from us.”
The appointment further strengthens Earl Kendrick’s position as a leading provider of surveying and engineering consultancy services to the property sector, offering clients an integrated, multi-disciplinary approach across a broad range of specialist services.
