Self-build experts

We know every self-build is different, and that’s why we cover all types of builds including modern methods of construction such as SIP and ICF – you build it, we cover it.

Lender Approved warranties

Our warranties are approved by the majority of UK mortgage lenders. Our self-build warranties enable you to self-build new houses, conversions and extensions safely – and sell them more easily. We’re here every step of the way.

Flexible time period policies

Everyone has different timelines for a build, that’s why we offer a range of flexible policy lengths from 3-24 months, so you can build your policy around your project.

Self-Build Insurance - Specialist cover from day one

Every self-build project takes time, hard work and significant financial investment – so you need insurance for a self-build from the moment you purchase the plot, even if there are no buildings already on-site.

We provide flexible, custom-built site insurance for self-builders, including build insurance that covers the range of risks you face during construction, and structural warranty insurance to protect your property against any latent defects in the design, materials or workmanship for 10 years after completion – making it easier for you to sell.

We understand building your home may be one of the biggest investments you ever make. With us, you’ll have peace of mind that your self-build is protected properly throughout construction and for the future too.

Your self-build project. Our specialist protection.

Each of our warranties and self-build insurance policies are specially designed with self-build in mind. Explore our range of site insurance and structural warranty policies for your self-build, conversion, renovation or extension project below.

The self-build insurance you need, all in one place

You always need robust insurance when building a house. With home insurance rarely covering property alterations and most builders’ policies only active when they’re working, self-build home insurance is the best way to make sure that you’re properly protected at all times during any building works.

Our building site insurance is specially designed insurance for building works and will protect everything about your project from the moment you purchase your plot. This includes you, the works carried out, any people on site, and any buildings already there.

Plus, we can supply your 10-year structural warranty insurance – which covers any structural defects that may appear after you’ve finished building. As most mortgage lenders require new-builds to have a structural warranty in place, this is essential if you need a mortgage or wish to sell.

Our expert, friendly team have over 20 years of experience protecting self-build projects of all shapes and sizes. Just give us a call to find out more – we’ll be happy to help.
