LV= Warns of

LV= Warns of £264m Repair Bill for Alcohol-Fuelled Home Accidents










Croydon, London (PRWEB) July 28, 2010

LV= is warning that accidents caused by Brits drinking and partying at home this summer is predicted to leave UK homeowners with a total repair bill of £264 million*.

New research by LV= home insurance (http://www.lv.com/insurance/home_insurance/ ) suggests that the explosive combination of the football world cup and hot weather has fuelled a boom in alcohol-related accidents, as Brits increasingly hold parties at home. Based on last year’s breakages, 73,000 TV/computer/games console accidents, 686,000 stains on carpets, and 955,500 breakages have already happened this summer.

Of last year’s accidents 56% admitted that alcohol was involved and 31% stated the guest who did the damage was ‘quite drunk’ when the accident happened. A further 44% admitted they were ‘a bit tipsy’ at the time. The most common accident was broken glass or crockery (29%), followed by spillages causing damage to furniture (22%) or stained and damaged carpets (20%).

LV= (http://www.lv.com/ ) is warning homeowners to ensure they opt for accidental damage cover as part of their home contents insurance (http://www.lv.com/insurance/home_insurance/tips_advice/home-contents-insurance ), so that if any serous mishaps occur they are not left out of pocket paying to put the damage right.

According to the LV= survey, 19% of Brits expects to entertain more this summer than last year, with the average household hosting three gatherings over the season. The hot summer appears to be making Brits more likely to open their doors to friends, with 49% citing the weather as a major reason to celebrate at home.

The wave of sporting events this summer is also encouraging 12% of Brits to entertain more, while 5% claim that a TV event like an X-Factor final spurs them to plan a party. Around one in seven parties (15%) ends in some sort of damage caused either by the host or an over-enthusiastic guest.

The research findings echo internal home insurance claims (http://www.lv.com/insurance/home_insurance/how-to-make-a-claim ) data from LV=, which shows that homes suffer more accidental damage over the summer months than at any other time of the year.

John O’Roarke, managing director of LV= home insurance, said: “Everyone enjoys having get-togethers at home and the hot weather is a great excuse for a party. But our research shows that having friends over can often result in accidents, and we see thousands of insurance claims each year for problems like red wine spillages on carpets. We are therefore warning homeowners to ensure they have accidental damage cover as part of their home buildings and contents insurance (http://www.lv.com/insurance/home_insurance/tips_advice/buildings-contents-insurance ), so that they’re protected in the event of anyone celebrating too enthusiastically.”

Why You Need Vacant Property Insurance

Article by Jackie De Burca









There are both fortunate and unfortunate situations in which you would be well advised to take out a vacant property insurance policy. The unfortunate ones are sadly increasing due to our challenging economic environment, and these will include the loss of tenants, which can then turn your property into an ideal target for the less fortunate homeless people, as well as burglars and other criminal potential damage.

The fortunate situations cover inheritance, long holidays, moving part-time or full-time to a lovely sunny country. If you have a second home that you would prefer not to rent out then you will definitely need insurance vacant property.

Here is the next thing, how much time before an empty property like this is considered to be vacant from an insurance point of view? This actually varies, but to be safe it is best to realise that many standard insurance policies only allow up to 30 days of vacancy on your normal policy. Once you run over this amount of time, and ideally if you know that this is going to happen in advance it is best not to take any risks, especially in the difficult time we are living in. You should prepare yourself to find an insurance policy which specifically caters for a period of unoccupancy.

Common sense will tell you why insurers consider a vacant property to be a greater risk, as a target to criminals and the less fortunate. Additionally it is a bigger risk as it will be left unchecked for the likes of water leaks and electrical faults, either of which can be very damaging to the property.

You need to be aware that most standard commerial property or home insurance policies to not cover a building even if you feel you are just going on a long holiday. In fact failure to notify your insurer can end up in extreme circumstances that your policy becomes invalidated. If you are adjusting your policy for a period of two to three months then your insurer will apply some special conditions. This can include removing the cover for water damage, contents theft and malicious damage. This means that really even for a short term vacant property insurance situation you are better off to opt for the specialist policy adapted for this scenario. This means that the vacant building can be insured with full cover. However normally the policy will not include contents but will include fixtures and fittings.

It is advisable to source an insurer that can offer you flexibility. They should recognise that on many occasions a property could be empty due to the owner wishing to improve it with refurbishments, a period between tenants or a trip overseas. There are reputable, flexible insurance companies who can offer you three optional levels of cover, including the highest level of cover available within the vacant property insurance market.

Whether you wish to avoid an unfortunate situation, or you have come into a fortunate situation such as an inheritance, enough money to buy another property or a lovely long trip abroad, you should take out a suitable vacant property insurance policy to put your mind at rest.
