Starting an Autumn Build? Protect Your Project from Day One
If your self build or house conversion is getting underway this autumn, now is the time to make sure the right protection is in place.
Once work begins, you are responsible for the site, the materials and the people working on or visiting your project. Standard home insurance is not designed to cover construction works, leaving you exposed if something goes wrong.
Protect your build with site insurance
Site insurance is designed specifically for self build projects, helping protect against the risks that can cause costly disruption:
✅ Theft or damage to materials, tools and the works
✅ Liability for injuries or accidents on site
✅ Storm, fire and accidental damage
With autumn bringing shorter days and more unpredictable weather, having the right cover in place from the start can help protect your project and your budget.
Get your structural warranty in place early
Your structural warranty should be arranged before work begins so technical inspections can take place at the required stages of construction.
Leaving it until later could make securing suitable cover more complicated and potentially more expensive.
Choose a warranty backed by an ‘A’ Rated insurer for added reassurance and to help meet lender requirements.
