FAQs
Most insurers ask those expensive items, over a certain value (£10k-£30k depending on the insurer) to be professionally valued.
We recommend every 3-5 years, and make sure you use a reputable jeweller, one that is part of a regulatory body. We can help recommend someone if you need. It is always worth bearing in mind the value of items can change through time. It happens very often, that once a client has their valuables appraised, they have a pleasant surprise and need to increase their cover to reflect the higher values.
Historically, surveyors would include this on their survey reports, but that is less common in practice now. There are other methods, but the most accurate is to get the property surveyed. A lot of the high net worth insurers will include this free of charge within their cover. And for those insurers that don’t include it, we have access to an RICS approved firm of surveyors who can accurately calculate to rebuild sum from their desktop.
Yes, you can. This means you will have the same renewal date as the main policy, you’ll receive the same amazing claims service and there won’t be any grey areas between which insurer is covering what. even if not in the UK, with our panel of insurers we can cover your holiday home for peace of mind.
Yes, let them know, just in case. If you have a standard insurance policy, they probably need to know whatever it is you’re doing to the property. With a high net worth policy, you don’t generally need to notify them of building works unless the contract value is going to exceed £100,000.
