Estate agent sign fell on car and scratched it

[DannyScene]

Last night an estate agents sign fell over onto my mates car bonnet and has scratched the paint
What are his options? I'm guessing he can't claim from the estate agents or do they have to ensure the signs are secure or something?

Thanks for the advice guys!

I have told my mate to make contact with the estate agent, I'll update the thread as I get more information from him

ETA: My mate has rung the estate agents and in his own words 'They weren't dheads about it' and are going to his tomorrow to check the damage for themselves, sounds positive IMO
