Building works

If you intend to start major alterations, renovations or repairs, it’s important that you inform us as soon as possible.

You’ll need to complete the commercial building works questionnaire or the building works questionnaire for your home. This must be completed before work begins.

We can then consider the effect the work will have on your policy and ensure that the correct cover is in place for the building works themselves.

Usually, the work under construction and the materials involved are the responsibility of the contractor and you don’t need to do anything. But, if you’ve signed a formal contract, which makes you liable to insure these, then let us know.

    What’s the ‘hot work permit’ for?

    This is the procedure which should be followed in all cases where ‘hot work' is involved ie welding, grinding, the use of open flames, or the application of heat.

    For more information on our building works or hot works questionnaire, please contact us on 0845 777 3322 from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday (excluding bank holidays).
