Not all insurance cover is the same.Certainly do not compare and decide on premiums alone. Draw up a table or spreadsheet of quotes to be sure you understand the differences:
- the different options and their value of cover
- inclusions and their value e.g. are tools or building materials covered for loss?
- exclusions. Are they important to you?
- is there a finite period in which construction needs to be completed?
- is there an option to extend your insurance cover if the building in not completed within the period of the Policy ? If so, for how long?
It is also important to consider the company and underwriter from which you will receive your insurance policy. After all, you need to have the confidence to know that your insurer is competent and experienced enough to handle your claim quickly, efficiently fairly and co-operatively.
