Frequently asked questions

How much should I insure my property for?

Your Declared Value (rebuild value) should cover the total cost of rebuilding from scratch: demolition, debris removal, structural engineer and architect fees, contractor costs, and building materials. This is not the market value — it's the cost to rebuild.

What is the Average Clause?

If your property is underinsured, the insurer can reduce your claim proportionally. For example, if you insure for £1M but the rebuild cost is £1.5M, you're only covered for two-thirds of any claim. A £150,000 claim would pay out just £100,000.

How do I get an accurate rebuild valuation?

Two options: a desktop survey (using mapping tools and current rates — no property visit needed) or a site survey (a professional surveyor visits for the most accurate figures). Ask your broker for guidance.

Do I need insurance when selling a property?

Yes. Having insurance cover is often essential when selling. Lack of insurance — especially for subsidence or flood — can cause significant delays in the sale process.
