Arrange An Audit

January 20, 2021 by Simon Gubbins

Unoccupied Buildings due to lockdown

On Monday 4 January the UK Government announced a further national lockdown and we  felt it was important to remind our customers of the impact this situation has on property insurances and the support and guidance we/your insurers can offer in the management of unoccupied buildings during this challenging time.

We are in a slightly different situation to previous lockdowns in that insurers were providing blanket responses to properties that were forced to close without restrictions in cover. Whilst some Insurers are continuing to provide blanket cover, this time the reaction is less co-ordinated and will have to based on individual circumstances. 

All customers who have a property insurance element to their policy have a minimum (14, 30 or perhaps 60) day definition of unoccupancy/empty in their policy, If a building is unoccupied for in excess of the specified period in the policy, we would ask that customers notify us immediately so that we can discuss your individual circumstances and ensure you receive the right advice and wherever possible maintain full cover. Failure to advise us could mean important elements of your cover are automatically withdrawn, the last thing any of us need with us moving into the coldest part of the year with freezing conditions and adverse weather.

I would urge you to discuss your individual circumstances with your Account Executive.
