Why do I need Insurance?
Park Homes are not static caravans, nor are they bricks and mortar houses and so normal household or static / holiday caravan insurance policies won’t give you the cover you need.
Park Homes are built to very specific standards but are more susceptible to damage than traditional houses and as they are normally located on a residential park you need a tailored and specialist policy.
Your policy should cover you for the usual causes of loss or damage including fire, flood, storm, theft and vandalism as well as accidental damage. In addition:
- Park Homes are increasingly expensive and built to last so make sure you have a policy with high sums insured and that offers unlimited new for old cover.
- As your Park Home is your permanent residence make sure you have enough cover for your contents as well as cover for personal possessions and valuables, away from your home as well as in it.
- Make sure the costs of replacing your Park Home are considered if it is written off. It can cost thousands of pounds to remove your old structure and replace with your new one so make sure the amount is high enough and included as standard.
- Make sure you are covered for things like alternative accommodation should your Park Home become uninhabitable and site fees or rent you would be liable for during that period.
- If this is your main residence you should have the option to add Legal Expenses and Home Emergency, two covers that are commonplace in household insurance.
