It can be such a stressful time for a homeowner or a landlord if you are making a claim. It will usually be because something dreadful has happened in your home or property, and the cost of the repair is outside your current budget or the size of the issue is covered under your Building Insurance. This could be as big as a home fire or major flood or a tenant that has totally trashed your property before they left. All utterly devastating.
In May this year, Confused.com reported there are almost 35m home insurance policies in the UK, worth around £4.2billion. The UK has one of the highest percentage penetrations of home insurance in Europe. There is on average £1.8m paid out every day on water damage claims which accounts for 30% of home insurance payouts (this is just one example of claims being made).
Making a claim when you are already feeling stressed and anxious can sometimes feel too much.
