Frequently Asked Questions

How can I ensure that my buildings are correctly valued?

We advise that your buildings sum insured should represent the true reinstatement value of the property following a total loss, including the costs of debris removal, architects’ fees and rebuilding. We can put you in contact with companies that can undertake the valuation on your behalf.

You can contact the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) for independent professional advice. We also recommend you have a professional survey conducted.

Can I insure my loss of rental income?

In the event of a severe loss (fire or other insured peril), your property would be not be fit for occupation and you may therefore suffer a loss of rental income. The length of time it will take to repair your building will vary, as all buildings are different – and you must take into account the location, type and construction of the property. Specialist properties and grade 1 and 2 buildings can take longer to build by their specialist nature. It is best to be cautious and consider a minimum of 24 months.
