Protection for Listed PropertiesWe currently insure a large number of listed homes across the Country varying from small cottages, to manor houses and stately homes. Should you be the owner of a listed building you will appreciate the need to have a suitable and relevant insurance policy in force, in order to ensure your home and its features are adequately protected.Most insurance companies require owners to establish the value of their property. This is straightforward with normal properties as there is usually a valuation from a lender or readily available statistics to follow as a guide.Listed buildings however, are works of art and have been created using long since disappeared craft techniques or difficult to source replacement features or materials. By their very nature they are unique.The powers of the Local Conservation Officer are draconian when dealing with the reinstatement of a listed home. Therefore we look to arrange “Unlimited Replacement Cost” coverage wherever possible, meaning that in the event of an insured loss, your home would be repaired / reinstated (as dictated by the Conservation officer) even if the cost were to exceed your sum insured, which is an invaluable benefit.We have a range of insurers offering extended buildings cover to incorporate the unpredictable nature of rebuilding a listed property when compared with a standard building. This gives you the extra peace of mind which is so difficult to find on the standard insurance market.We also have contacts with specialist approved builders who can be used for all of your maintenance requirements.

Private Client Household InsurancePrivate Client household insurance is recommended if thecost to re-build your property is above £250,000 and ifyour contents are worth over £75,000.

Generally household insurance policies have inner limitson the sums insured in regards to valuable items, antiquesetc. If you have items that may be considered as highvalue then they may not be fully insured under a standardinsurance policy.

So typically, a Private Client will:• Own a house with a rebuild value in excess of £250,000 +or• Have house contents exceeding £75,000• Own collectable, unique and priceless items e.g. a collection of Fine Arts or Antiques

The larger the building sum insured, the more complicateda claim can be in regards to reinstating a propertyfollowing a fire or other incident. Where the propertyis listed there will be more people to consult in regardsto protecting the original materials and character of theproperty thus complicating matters further.

We will make sure that you have the cover you need andprovide you with a dedicated one to one service.*
