Community Buildings Insurance

Protect the whole building, with no surprises on the day of the water leak

In a residents' association, the two things that fail most are water — that leak running down the façade that no one can trace — and liability, which is compulsory. I explain exactly where the building’s policy ends and each owner’s home insurance begins, and I size the water-damage cover so you’re not caught short.

What matters most
  • Water damage with leak tracing and repair
  • Compulsory liability cover for the community
  • Advice even without a property manager
What’s covered

Protection for the building and common areas.

Comprehensive cover for the building and its common areas, scaled to the size of your community.

Water damage

From shared pipework, with levels ranging from no leak tracing to full tracing and repair, extendable to private pipework.

Community liability cover

Towards third parties, with legal defence and bail bonds. Also includes individual liability cover for co-owners.

Fire, explosion and lightning strike

On the building and common areas.

Broken glass and windows

Glass, mirrors and communal and building sanitary fittings.

Theft and burglary

Of common elements of the building.

Cosmetic reinstatement

Leaves the repaired area looking uniform, not patched.

24h assistance

Assistance plus legal advice for the community.

The private interior of each home is not covered here: that’s covered by each owner’s home insurance. Full details on cover, limits and excesses are in the General Conditions, which I explain before you take out the policy.

So there are no surprises

What’s not covered.

Here are the most relevant exclusions; I’ll explain the rest calmly.

Private interior of homesUnless it results from a covered shared incident; that falls under each owner’s home insurance.

Intentional damageDeliberately caused.

Undeclared risksElements or activities outside the specific conditions.

Full details on cover, limits and excesses are in the General and Specific Conditions of the policy.

Frequently asked questions

Before you write to me.

The questions I get asked most. If yours isn’t here, write to me and I’ll answer personally.

Does the community policy cover the inside of my flat? +
It covers common areas and the building’s structure; the private interior is covered by your own home insurance. I’ll explain the exact line.
We have a leak and don’t know where it’s coming from — is it covered? +
Yes, with the water-damage cover that includes leak tracing and repair: it locates the source, not just the damage.
Is it compulsory for the community to have insurance? +
The community’s liability cover is compulsory; insuring the building also avoids huge one-off costs to owners after a claim.
If someone falls in the lobby or is hurt by falling debris, who is liable? +
The community’s general liability cover, with legal defence and bail bonds.
Does it cover theft in common areas? +
Yes, with the optional theft and burglary cover.
We’re a small community with no property manager — can you help us? +
Yes, direct contact and cover tailored to your building.
