Block of Flats Insurance
Organising insurance for leasehold flats and apartments usually referred to as “Block of Flats Insurance” or “Block Insurance” is a huge responsibility. Whether you are a Residential Management Company, Right to Manage Company (RTM), Residents Association or a private individual with the responsibility to organise your Block Insurance we can help.
We can arrange competitive cover for anything from 2 converted flats to a large purpose built block with 100+ flats. We work with most major leading UK insurers with market leading products. We understand that price is an important factor for most residential blocks, that’s why we search our broad panel of insurers to find the best deal. You’ll also be assigned your own personal representative to work with including any claims assistance.
If your property is of non-standard construction, is listed or has an adverse claims history then we can help you too.
