The team at HomeGround have been liaising with the relevant authorities, managing agents and leaseholders to ensure we provide insurers with the relevant information in order to assess the risk, for example:

  • Age of building, height of the building
  • Type of cladding and insulation and the percentage of the building covered by the material
  • Details of any building defects
  • Detail of risk controls such as a waking watch, fire alarm or a close at hand full time fire brigade
  • Whether there is a remediation programme in place and the timescales of
