Insurance For Underpinned Commercial Property

Underpinned property insurance is for buildings that have had structural support work because of subsidence, movement or foundation issues. Insurers usually need more evidence than a standard property enquiry because the history, cause of movement and quality of repairs can materially affect terms.


Evidence To Prepare

  • Structural engineer reports and repair details
  • Date and cause of subsidence or movement
  • Monitoring records and current condition
  • Previous claims and insurer correspondence

Cover To Review

  • Buildings and property owners liability
  • Subsidence terms, excesses or exclusions
  • Loss of rent and business interruption
  • Legal expenses and tenant-related cover
