Specialised Insurance for Your Block of Flats

Coverage That Truly Fits

Owning a block of flats comes with substantial exposures and liabilities. You need specialist insurance for blocks of flats tailored to match the unique risks blocks of flats face – not a one-size-fits-all policy. Our brokerage provides customised insurance solutions designed specifically for blocks of flats in the UK.

Comprehensive Building and Contents Protection

Our policies deliver complete protection for your most valuable assets – your building and its contents. We’ll provide coverage for:

  • Property damage from all causes, including fire, flooding, vandalism, and more
  • Loss of rent if your flats become uninhabitable after an insured loss
  • Liability protection if tenants or visitors are injured on your premises
  • Faulty workmanship coverage during renovations or repairs
  • Lifting equipment breakdowns like elevators and dumbwaiters
  • Accidental damage to fixtures, fittings, fixed glass, underground services and more


Bundling your building and contents coverage can help you save substantially. We’ll optimise your policy by identifying what to bundle.

Customised Policies Matching Your Block's Needs

Blocks of flats vary enormously in size, age, value and exposures. That’s why we take time to understand the unique risks your individual property faces before recommending a policy. The coverage we provide can include:

  • Agreed value to avoid underinsurance – we’ll ensure the limit matches rebuilding costs
  • All risks cover for ultimate protection or more basic fire, lightning, explosion policies to cut costs
  • Special limits for high-risk areas like waste storage and car parks
  • Cover for communal facilities like gyms, pools and shared gardens
  • Terrorism cover extensions if needed

With a thorough assessment, we can craft a policy tailored to your block’s needs and budget.
