Rick Kulcheski, the principal appraiser, has over 31 years of experience and training in Heavy Equipment and the Auto industry. While starting out as a truck body repairman/mechanic in 1979, he moved on to appraising in 1988 with the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia. Rick has been in the Heavy Equipment Dept. since 1994 and has seen an opportunity in the private sector for insurance companies to benefit from his experience.
Rick has reviewed hundreds of subrogation demands from third-party insurers over the span of his career. He's saved the at-fault insurance companies thousands of dollars due to the lack of experience from the choice of appraiser by the third-party insurance company.
Beginning as an Estimator with the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia in 1990 serving the Kamloops area, Gerry was with ICBC for 23 years. He became a Heavy Equipment Appraiser in the late nineties where he assessed claims on all heavy equipment from semi-trucks to BC Ferries. Gerry has obtained a wealth of knowledge in all aspects of automotive collision-repair and operations management, including production, sales, and office functions, in compliance with industry standards and best practices.
Randy began his career with the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia in the late eighties as an Estimator serving the Williams Lake, 100 Mile House and Quesnel areas. Randy moved on to become a Commercial Claims Appraiser for ICBC in 2008 where he processed claims for Northern B.C. He has worked in all facets of Commercial Claims including body frame shops, wheel alignment shops, fabrication shops and manufacturers, while also working closely with claim centers, adjusters and estimators to ensure fair claim settlements. Additionally, Randy has handled major subrogation files from additional parts of Canada and the USA.
From reviewing damage on highway trucks, trailers and recreational vehicles, working on claims for major insurance companies to conducting quality control inspections, Peter has acquired experience from every angle of the heavy equipment industry.
