Why do you a need renovation insurance policy?
Renovating a property to turn it into your dream home could potentially provide you with extra space and value. However, renovation projects do come with a degree of risk.
In the first instance you should check with your insurer whether your existing home insurance policy covers you before you start any work. If it’s a particularly large project, additional insurance cover (a renovation insurance policy) may be needed. This will ensure that if a problem does occur you have appropriate cover in place.
Our renovation insurance helps you:
- Protect your home
During a renovation your home could be subject to a number of risks; damage, fire, theft of materials etc. Renovation insurance can help ensure you are covered. - Protect your treasured possessions
We would always recommend removing or securing all valuable or delicate items in your home during a period of work to minimise the risk of accidental damage. If the worst does happen your renovations insurance will typically respond to pay the costs of repairing / replacing your precious items.
